Thanks Pat. I was hoping you would weigh in on this. I'm trading through FIX API, which (as you appropriately qualified) will be a bit different than the above scenario. I've actually progressed quite a bit from when I posted this question...I've recently gone live with one of your competitors...

I just got off the phone with Rithmic. For all practical purposes, they don't have servers in Europe. They're considering doing something in London.

I spoke to the person at the FCM that apparently knows what the deal is with MD. She more or less confirmed what I had been hearing from CQG, that I'd need to subscribe to non-display data. BUT, after poking a bit further she told me this: if my FIX API program's 'front end' displays the...

Certainly latency sensitive. Not counting microseconds, but milliseconds for sure. I'm running this off of a dedicated server in LD4, so the x-connect to CQG in LD4 was an ideal setup, given that I can afford to give up the 5ms or so latency through their fiber wire (I think) connection to...

So this notion, that because the data is going (through CQG's server) to my FIX application, then I am required to be paying 'non-display data' fees (listed here) is false? I'm hoping you're right - I just didn't know how to answer CQG..."no, that doesn't apply! really non-display data is for...

@tradingcomputer To use the CME data on your algo (or any exchange for that matter), DTN doesn't require that you pay 'non-display data' fees?? I didn't catch your thread before I posted about my situation with CQG last night. Basically, I've just been informed: because I intend to use the...

Thanks for your message. Since you've been through this, please weigh in: does it make sense? Just because I'm using a FIX connection, Eurex would require that I pay for non-display data (520 Euro), as a single non-pro user? This on top of CQG's hefty price for the FIX connection. Is it...

I'm looking to use my custom FIX API program to trade futures, primarily Eurex. I thought the quickest/easiest way to get this going was to use CQG's FIX adapter to connect. Dealing with CQG Contiuum (the faction of CQG that provides FIX connectivity) has been a nightmare for the past couple...

Absolutely...I didn't mean to suggest otherwise.

It's worse than you could possibly imagine

Aaron, It sounds like you've begun to find out what it's like trying to do business with 'offshore' banks as a US Citizen/Resident. It's not the type of business that the banks are balking at, its the nationality and locale (i.e. the US) of the director of the entity (or potential entity, as it...

Are the any US FCMs that I'd be able to trade Eurex futures with from London (preferably LD4/5)? (In terms of servers, not in terms of compliance). All these big firms, (including those that offer Eurex futures) that tout their co-location abilities/services seem to only have setups in...

Hi Everybody. I'm a full-time FX trader, exclusively trading a couple of exotic pairs. I've been trading with mostly retail brokers (and a few 'institutional' brokers) outside the US. Could someone please tell me: what type of credentials and account size/volume would I need to trade with a...

Anybody...?

Thanks for the suggestion. Could anyone weigh in on: what type of credentials and account size/volume would I need to trade FX with a US-based PoP/Mini-Prime broker?

Hi Everybody. I'm a full-time trader, exclusively trading a couple exotic pairs. I've been trading with mostly retail brokers outside the US. I've just moved back to the US, and would like to know: what type of credentials and account size/volume would I need to trade with a US-based...

Stoica, Did you come to any determinations regarding your original post? I am looking to do the exact same thing, manage funds exclusively (at least for the indefinite future) of my 'close circle'. I'd appreciate hearing what you found out and/or ended up doing. Regards, oversea

I live on Long Island and am currently renting space in an executive suites building here. The space is not a perfect fit for me, so I'm considering other options. Commuting into the city is not realistic for me, but if anyone would be interested in getting space together on Long Island...

Hi, Did you get find anything out? I'm interested in them myself.

londonkid, I had a discussion with T3 about this very topic last week. Perhaps we could speak in a different setting and compare notes.
