    Best Thread Capital Spreads

    Well, on a good note, you're not on dealer confirm, bad note is that it's probably just one of those things. The price has likely changed from the one you've clicked on. In order to keep up with the "no requotes" trend these trade requests are just rejected rather than requoted at current...

    On a good trade (one that goes through) - how long does it normally take to get a response? ~1 second.... a few seconds? ....and how long for one that gets this bad response?

    Do you experience trade rejections on their demo system or any other trading system (live or demo) not run by this company? do you suffer any other internet problems? do you experience same problems on a different computer? when it rejects the trade what does it actually say?

    Personally I'd pull my cash, aren't they going to court at some point in the near future?

    SB firm with the lowest spread in stocks

    Assume that's a total of 0.16% then for ETX? Just checked Spread Co and they're at 0.15% total (no mention of either side) at 5% margin.

    Best SB platform for indicies & forex

    Spread on the Dow is good, no requotes even in a busy market, but mainly trade FX nowadays during early asian session but am moving away on to MT4 now.

    Best SB platform for indicies & forex

    A few of the faster web platforms, Spread Co, ETX, Capital don't use HTTPS for their main communications protocol so won't be slower unless you've dropped a firewall/proxy in the way. From what I've seen there's no performance difference in the spread co web platform than there is the download...

    ECN Speed and Reliability

    Hi all, Am working on a system at the moment that will trade one MT4 platform off against another by comparing each other's prices. For this system to work, all trades would have to be accepted by the brokers with no slippage (buying from one, selling to another). Do ECN providers put every...

    Yes Simon, I totally agree. Wild sweeping comments like this are clearly incorrect, and just shows ignorance. There is no reason for any company to hold back charting prices, and most, given the delay from the exchange, through to the price engine and up to the charts probably max out the delay...

    eh? What do you mean they are too slow? Bit of a generalisation don't you think?

    Spread Betting Historic Data

    Hi Mike, I see you are a developer. Best option is to try a few platforms and use a tool to sniff data off of the wire. HTTP Fiddler is good for this with regards to using with charting software. If you need to look a bit further into protocols you can try wireshark/winpcap and Fiddler Core...

    Build Neural Network Indicator in MT4 using Neuroshell

    Hi Arryex, I'll be implementing in C# in Visual Studio. The c# version I looked at ( A C# Kalman filter class « Autospreader's Blog ) takes in a Matrix, but it's just how to patch the 1 dimensional series data in to the matrix? Think I'm just missing that piece of knowledge. Is it fairly...

    Build Neural Network Indicator in MT4 using Neuroshell

    Hi, Looks very good. Looking briefly at the Kalman Code it takes in a Matrix for it's input. Based on HLOC data how do you get that in to a Matrix? And what comes out the other end?
