Thanks for the replies, please can anyone recommend a reliable, quick, secure VPS with close proximity to New Jersey, US? I checked out Go Daddy, Myhosting, both of which have their pros and cons, there's a tonne on the internet but not sure how valid the reviews are. Very grateful for any...

Thanks NetTecture, please excuse my ignorance I am not well versed in server technology I would like to know about 'VPS' versus a 'Cloud' server, is it correct that Cloud is more reliable? Fail safe, security and latency are my key concerns.

Hello everyone, I am looking to host MetaTrader4 on a low latency US based server for automated trading with OANDA. Connectivity and uptime are most important. I'm considering the pros and cons of using Amazon Web Services vs a VPS... please can anybody offer any thoughts or advice on this and...

So they are no longer ECN, they are solely market making? They still charge commission, I hope they don't plan on widening spreads or skewing their quotes.

Not sure exactly what Bella is trying to achieve but I can also vouch for MC. They have given me a lot of help, beyond their call of duty. I am very happy to recommend their software.

Thanks Mav, good trading.

Hi Mav, your comparison charts look really great, do you mind sharing where you get them from? I'm using Esignal but I don't think it is possible with their software... are there any online sites that can do this?

Exactly! Why when ICE website clearly stipulates rebate for traders who trade > 1 trade / mth on NYBOT, should we be ordered to pay $75/ mth irrespective of trade activity with IB? Please IB / ICE, provide a reasonable response.

Well here is IB's response to my open ticket which I'm not particularly happy with "Unfortunately, due to material changes in our agreement with the Intercontinental Exchange for dissemination of market data we are unable to offer the ICE/NYBOT feed for anything less than $ 75 dollars. I...

The point I'm making Oldtime is that IB previously emailed me telling me it was 1 dollar if I trade minimum of 1 trade / month on NYBOT. Now they are telling me it's $75 and disregard the previous email they sent a few weeks ago. If I'm doing business with a company I expect clear...

I need it for Sugar and Coffee. I've written to them asking what's going on. Will update when I hear back.

Recently I received the below communication from IB regarding their NYBOT data feed, this was just a few weeks ago. Now they are telling me to disregard the message and cough up 'substantial' $75/month fees for NYBOT instead. So what's the deal here, do they have rebates for actual traders, or...

Didn't they just raise prices already, just a few months ago?

Thanks, I sent off a couple of emails to those companies but looks like I should have thought about this before it got stolen. If I'm lucky I'll catch them online through logmein stats but I'm not holding my breath. Time to buy a new laptop. Thanks again.

forgot to say OS is Win XP.

Been a bad week, someone stole my laptop, it's windows password 'secured' but I just read that this can be hacked with a free online crack. I didn't save any passwords on there but I want to do everything I can to disable / wipe the machine and prevent any data theft. Is there any way to do...

I use GLD for gold, TBT and TLT for bonds.

Been looking for a decent way to play US 30 year bonds on the long and short side through ETFs. I found TLT and TBT, but these are 20 years maturity. I overlaid against US Z9, the Dec Bond Future, but they lag, I guess because they are 20 years and not 30.... So, back to the question: are there...

What does account size have to do with it? did I say how large or small a balance I am converting to cover negative foreign currency? This is irrelevant! I'm not here to bash IB, I am extremely happy with IB in all other respects, they are a great broker. I am here to point out what looks...
