Brokers supporting execution through FIX: Any recommendations?

I'm looking for a broker offering FIX protocol support on the execution side but I'd prefer not to be bound to a certain API for the execution.

Additionally I'll need real-time (tick-by-tick) FX data.

Can anybody recommend a broker providing these services to non-institutional clients? Would it make more sense to separate these two tasks?

My plan is to use this broker to trade high-frequency strategies in the FX space.

General comments are also welcome.

Thanks in advance.

 

check Traderbolt.com

i they offer APIs for many different clearing firms...

or you can check out www.ninjatrader.com, they have also have what you are looking for...

good luck

 

Give http://www.redskysecurities.com a call. I know they support FIX, but not sure if you can do FX with them.

@qtip: As far as I can see both companies offer their own interfaces for the order execution while they don't support FIX... (at least not directly).

Thanks anyway.

 

Xzibitor,

We (MBT) offers what you are looking for. If you would like to review our FIX spec then please private msg me your email. I would be happy to send it to you.

Something like www.velocityfutures.com/Fix_platform.html ?

 

regarding the execution that's basically what i meant.

they seem to be specialized in futures.

 

And also Interactive Brokers via it's FX ECN.

There is a list of API/FIX compatible brokers here:

Thanks. I'll take a look at those who support FIX.

IB doesn't offer good conditions for FX trading.
