Well....I would be referring to both, as one thing goes hand in hand with the other. But their gateway is not what I consider up to the standards one is looking for if one wants to Algo trade. We have had execution taking up to over seconds. Since we have been working close with them they have...

We have been trading on Baxter for quite a while. If you trade manually it's certainly ok, if traded traded through FIX it's another story. But manually as said ok, spreads decent and people ok.

Currenex and Baxter for example......but ofcourse it all depends on the size of your account and turnover etc. Dukascopy charges 30 USD per mio traded last time I checked, but I am paying about half of that.

Will rollovers ever be competitive? I still think 5 USD per 100k traded is a lot, but on the swaprates it's pure robbery. If one trades past cut off time EFX is very very expensive!
