Any other choice except Interactive Brokers? Thank you very much !!

For trading FX, anybody build your own Indicators (like Moving averages, MACD.. ) by storing quotes from MM/ECN instead of using the indicators API provided by MM/ECN or the paid data feed ?

Currenex seems do not deal with individual clients, they dont even give response to my enquiries.. correct me if I am wrong, thanks.

For those ECNs that do not provide historical data, they cannot provide indicators API as well like moving averages, MACD.. etc. For Tenfore and ESignal, they charge around 100 USD per month.. So there is no total free solutions for ECN, am I correct ?

It's quite terrible that I cant find an ECN capable of providing the fundamentals of kick-starting my ATS development. IB: 30 days of historical data only, must sign up for a paper trading account MBT: no historical data at all Hotspot: request me to pay $1875 for a single currency...

Hi former, I am very interested for your recommendation and I cant wait until getting response from Hotspot. Would you please tell me in short their min deposit req, leverage ratio, API charge, API documentation link, availability of historical data for backtesting, backfill.. etc ? What about...

Thank you HBC !! So you mean that I am perfectly legal to do so ? From the registration screen, I need to select my country of residence... then I select "UK".. although when I dialed to the operator, he said that it means the country where I have the permanent residence right.

Dear all fellows, I have a problem...IB currently blocks all HK residences on trading FX.. if I state that I am living in UK (with UK residence right), I can pass the restriction but is it illegal to do so? Actually I am now holding British national overseas passport with work permit on it only...

hi Streamline, thanks for your input As I know prime brokerage services mainly serve hedge fund clients where they usually posses a mechanical strategy .. but not sure it's common to have purely mechanical or partially mechanical. I think it will be common to have purely mechanical systems in...

Great .. Currenex: http://www.currenex.com/about_us_partners.html FXAll: http://www.fxall.com/liquidity_overview.html FX Connect: No info Worth noting that for Currenex its "white label partners" have retail brokers inside .. among them Gain Capital (Forex), and Man Financial are...

Hi, what about just getting a company registration without the business with it ? Even with real business there may not be any asset having much values..

Dear all, Anybody knows what is the min. account requirement to use prime brokerage services in an investment bank being as an institutional investor ? How much does it charge to have a FIX connection enabled ? and how much if we need the ibank developers to implement a given strategy ? What...

Dear all fellows, May I ask whether any of you tried any Investment Bank / ECN for retail spot FX ? I searched through the web and located a lot of options, below are my findings.. Caylon: registered on the web but replied that individual cannot be authorized without a sales following...

Do you mean TradeBolt ? It takes so much time for me to program the indicators on my own. I think I will try MB by NoEmotion's suggestion since I dont need a multi-broker solution yet and have not yet prepared for paying a product like RightEdge. By the way MB also have FIX API available for...

Hi, are you sure that you can develop your system in MB by C# ? http://www.mbtrading.com/sdk.asp Is there a way to use C# to connect the COM objects provided by MB ? Sorry I am not familar with it..that's the reason I want to try.. For the TradeBolt option suggested by someone above, I...

"IB has their TWS functions available through .NET components. I'm currently using it with VB.NET with no problems. They are nice to even give you a stub application that calls most of the APIs and handles the events." They have VB.NET, VC++.NET but seems havent mention C#.. "The only thing...
