Gentlemen/Gentleladies,Gentletrans, please define scalping for me. The Ever Curious VIPER

Hey Ice, I like both. But Hotspot does have one distinct advantage to CurreneX, you can get a Hots direct feed for charting from esignal and use their charting or a third party. This feed makes a direct match between the execution platform and the charting. I also like their platform better, but...

Let me explain about the widening spreads. My criticism is with the platforms that artificially widen the spread before news. I have heard that, before news on some platforms, the spread is a constant 10-20 pips. This does not happen on CurreneX and Hotspot. That is what I mean by the banks...

Canes, I am speachlesssssss. Seriously, I thought that they might have a good thing going there, I guess not. What a coincidence that the outage happened at that time. Really, after the news, Trichet etc. nothing really happened price wise. Then we moved dollar strong, and that was well after...

whaaaaaaaa CurreneX just slipped me one pip, I'm calling Dan Rather and 60 min. They did such a good job with the Pinto, Audi 5000, and Gm pickups, I know they will get to the bottom of this slippage :D The Occasionally Sarcastic VIPER

Fellow Canes fan, outage on what platform ? The Ever Curious VIPER

I say lets all get together in Miami, in December, and have some Churros and Hot chocolate while we discuss Larry and Cholos. Sorry, I know y'all are serious, but I couldn't resist. Hey Surf The Ever Mood Lightening VIPER

FX Trades, and we work within our white label providers hub. The Ever Working Within Our White Labels Hub

My purpose in starting this thread is to pull back the FOREX curtain just a bit, so we can take a good look at the "wizard". First of all we need to understand what we are talking about when we say ECN. The first thought that comes to mind are the ECN's that enable trading on the NASDAQ...

Am I getting close to 1mio posts ? :D I am a second generation descendant of German immigrants and I will explain the attitude of DB "You vill trade mit us, unt you vill like it" The Ever Germanic VIPER :p

Ice, what I like is the fact that on some of these platforms, that say ECN, you get this artificially wide spread and then, for no added extra charge, you get slippage also. The Ever Observant VIPER :confused:

Yes that is what I am saying, you will be taken out by another trader inside your liquidity hub and not a bank. The Ever Liquid VIPER

Thank you very much Steve and IB The Ever Greatful VIPER

Steve and ids, I would like to say that I have demoed both of your platforms and I think they are very good. I don't know how your fills are because we trade CurreneX and Hotspot, but I would assume they are quality because both of your firms are high quality. Now for my question, do your...

Hold on there pilgrim. Understand that CurreneX has "hubs" of liquidity. So this means that depending on the "hub" your broker has you in, that is where you will execute. Soooo, 0035 might be showing on the "DOM", but you cannot execute against it because the .0035 is in another hub. This is how...

Larry the Black Hole of liquidity. The Ever Star Gazing VIPER :D

"Cholos" Chicano slang for gang member, the word did not originate with anglo saxons. "Chulo" Spanish slang for something or someone good looking. Usage P.R.; Boricua says, "Ay Que Papi Chulo" The Ever Linguistic VIPER :D :D :D :D

JM perhaps you don't understand a lot of what goes on here. Many on these boards are professional traders, and when we are in down times, and relaxing, we hang out just kind of goofing off. For example we just took 15 pips out of the EUR short. Since we are slow in volume today and we just...

OK, for all of my fans The Ever Hairless and Wart Free VIPER :D
