We're sure of that? That really sucks if so. What would the reason be for that?
So there is much less liquidity on HS FXr than on IDEALPRO for the individual trader? HotSpot acts like they are the liquidity king, guess they...
Without giving away secrets, does that mean you mainly rely on TA to trade on IDEALPRO? Just trying to get an idea of how folks are making winning...
Come to think of it I am almost sure that IB's FX Trader window has a menu item for Time and Sales that includes volume. I will check tonight,...
Probably easier to confirm with HS directly , they seem very responsive. So I guess the next question is what if any use is there for B/A quote...
Interesting, I had considered using the pricing of FX futures and options as indicators, but not considered the volume. Is the volume of FX...
Are you sure about that? Sorry to doubt you, it just doesn't sound right. I am sure HotSpot provides it, DukasCopy provides it, why doesn't IB...

Not sure if NT can get from Ideal, but RightEdge can. That said, why auto trade Ideal. That's a low volume high spread service meant for currency...
Beware, IB doesnt seem to give FX volume to NinjaTrader, at least I haven't been able to figure it out yet.
What broker offers negative balance protection? The only one I know that promises it (FXCM) fails to actually guarantee it in their agreement....
3. RightEdge 4. OpenQuant
