Liquidity provider career?

I'm just wonder, does any over-the-counter platform pay for small individual liqiuidity providers for make a lot of transactions.

I ask, because in past i made o loooot of transactions at oanda - $10s mio a day and i don't earned any break cent.

This is how they make money, so why would they be willing to share it with you?

Old thread but i have found myself asking the same question.

Hypothetically, if an individual have an algo that play huge number of transactions " number-wise and volume-wise". Also, it is mostly using pending orders. What benefit he or she can get from retail brokers?

I know he can negotiate for better cost of transaction. Or rebate

but are these only the two options. Is there a possibility that his algo could could participate in the game as a liquidity provider.. especially if it is 90% pending player?

if you have such an algo, then you probably want to stop trading retail and find yourself a decent prop shop where you can get liqudiity rebates passed through... (along with some good ole sweet inhouse leverage)

He's talking about FX...

The only FX broker I know that has a 'pay for adding liquidity' type setup is MB Trading.

Though, you gotta view this from a total cost perspective (spread +/- charges.) And you'll be punished for taking liquidity when you need to bail from a position.

You're right. I totally missed it when I read through the thread.
