eSignal forex rates

  1. With TradeStation now offering streaming forex data for FREE, as of version 7.2 which is already out, how is eSignal planning to respond? As far as I understand the forex fee with eSignal is $50 which is A LOT.

    Jay? Chuck?

  2. BTW,
    why so many Forex Brokers supply free data at every people (client and non-client), I understand that maybe eSignal Forex have better data, but maybe you could also offer these free data for few penny at your current customer as an alternative? It is possible?
     
  3. Or maybe data on the big pairs (eur, jpy etc.) for a low price or free, and the full fee so to get all the pairs. TS now offers data on 50 currency pairs for free!

    We recently reduced the price of our Forex data on Market Center and we are considering a decrease for eSignal subs as well. When comparing services, please keep in mind that we are solely a market data vendor and not an execution house. Brokers can make margin in a variety of ways while the fees for a data vendor like us are just what we quote.

    Another important factor in choosing a Forex provider is to consider the breadth of the contributors they cover. You won't find many services that cover a bigger list than this one. The more contributors, the greater the perspective on where the market really stands.

    Lastly, we will introduce the ability to see Forex data in a Market Depth window in ver 7.5 ( due out later this month ). We think serious Forex traders are going to really like this new Forex Depth feature.

    Thanks.
