May be my Q has no anwer.... Just wonder if somebody from this group has compared forex platforms in one aspect - which one of them is faster than others to get real time data. Of course I think about few seconds ahead. This Q came to me when I followed some platforms and found small differencies.
MFtr: Have only worked with retail spot FCMs & Commerce Bank platforms. I've found GAIN Capital to have the fastest real time platform by about a second or two. I use them, CMS & Refco and typically can pick up a PIP w/ CMS & Refco on entry & exit from the price change on GAIN's platform. Good luck.
