apologies ...

I think MBT has a .net api. IS there any reason why you need a native .net api?

I know this is from another thread but I just couldn't resist It would be wise not to harp on about other people's 'comprehension' when you can't even spell. Perhaps you can get a copy of microsoft office for the spell checker. I believe microsoft offer discounts to students, or maybe you...

cute .. they stil make those things ... they remind me of tina turner

So tell me, has it ever occurred to you that the people replying might come from a ibanking background? You can defend your post all you want, with its precious insight into the world of fx but you have to wonder why you're getting such abuse on each of the threads you've deemed it necessary to...

ppl aren't replying because they're quietly laughing at you. You're trying to be the white knight in attempting to warn everyone here about the dangers of trading spot fx but you don't even know the differences between a marker maker, broker or ecn. I suggest you do some reading up before you...

owned? who talks like that? now get on your knees and open your mouth

Classic! I wouldn't have expected anything less from the result of an incestuous affair. Keep up the good work jethrow

hahahha .. oh sorry ... were you being serious?

it's annoying but there are other brokers out there

there have alwayws been issues with the platform most of them minor. But recently, I've had this issue with frightening regularity during periods of high volatile. I've downgrade and upgraded to various versions of the software but still the same issue. I may have to go down the route of paying...

f you're not gonnatrade when the market is volatile then agreed, the spreads on 6E are never >2 ticks. I find trading through ib is fine when tws is working but recently there hav e been some serious issues withthe platform locking up and requiring a restart. I don't have to tell you how...

the large spreads I was referring to were on 6b and tbh on any non 6e fx future contract. Even on 6e, if you're looking to trade around big figures you're looking at poor liquidity. A lot of the liquidity in the futures mkt will be the big banks arbing between the futures and the spot price...

I must admit I'm talking more about fx futures than any other fuures. I can provide everyone here with logs of prices of the most liquid fx futures around new releases. To think you can get 100 lots is fantasy. You're most likely to only get filled at a decent price on 6E and even there you'll...

did someone just say somthing? I could have sworn I just heard a noise.

the liquidity is poor though for many of the instrments around news

trade spot fx and futures. Only trade when market is volatile. Spot FX fills are so-so in fast markets as banks can choose to not honour the quotes. Futures aren't too bad but I've nothing to compare them to

I'm trying to get the theoretical futures price from the spot for eurusd and I'm running into some problems. For the futures at the near end of the curve (at the moment Jun06) I get a price that is the same as what the current 6E Jun06 is trading at. However, for the Sep06 and Dec06 futures mine...

most likely ib

good luck. the api is one of those things that may seem difficult at first but once you get going it all makes sense. You can download samples for c++ and .net from the dev site
