anyone trade Forex with MB Trading ?

Quote from ddunbar:

Market didn't trade at that level until approx. 08:36:00 EST. Take a peak at any 1 min EUR/USD chart. Even the CME Futures were back to 1 pip spread by that time. IB's spread was 1 to 2 pips at that time.

I don't know about EUR but the GBP quote is correct for 830. My Oanda chart shows the 1M candle starting at 8560 and ending at 8620. After 831 it never went below 8620. Oanda's spread at that moment was 8 by the way.

I use the MB/ Neoticker combo. Works perfectly with MBs free data feed. True, at the moment you can not trade the minis and FX from the same account and Navigator screen because you'll have 2 different log ins and passwords. It's not really a hassle for me. I also have 6 LCDs. I just have 2 Nav screens up and running ... one for FX and one for YM & equitys ... both on 1 screen. I like it that way personally because I use to different layout for each ... 1 FX layout and 1 YM. If you use Neoticker it comes with Nav (free) built in so you can use NT as your front end and trade right off the charts. At first I was leary but I'm using it more and more. Works very well and you can basically code your own order types. I'm just about done with a complex OCO ordering scheme based on Fibs. At this point I can easily just use the NT front end and eliminate the Navs all together.

I found this thread while searching for information on MB Trading.

I trade Spot Forex and I use eSignal as my charting program. My biggest concern is that eSignals composite data feed introduces a lot of false volatility into the chart.

What I am trying to find is a fair and reliable broker who is part of the eSignal composite feed so that I can trade with a chart that matches my quotes.

Does anyone have experience with which of the composite contributors matches the MB Trading quotes?

I see on the MB website that they are affiliated with 3DForex, who happens to be an eSignal contributor. I am going to do a quick comparison and see if infact the charts and quote are the same, but thought that I would ask if anyone has worked this out previously.

Any help or suggestions.

Thanks
James
 
James, if you get Tickquest charting, you can use the MB plug in, and use the MB data directly. Then you only pay for the Tickquest platform. Also, I agree with you 100% on the esignal "noise" issue, you can get separate feeds from esignal, like the abn-amro, or an individual bank feed but again these are individuals and there is no way to get a composite of say 10 banks and a hedge fund.
