well, first of all, iqfeed is not a BROKER feed, but a data provider feed. If that is ok (i.e. paying for data), then there are quite some more. NxCore seems tobe the best (and most expensive).
Zen-fire is great, but is also NOT the mt4 platform either - it is either an API, or one of the supported other charting / trading systems.

NxCore and Zen-fire are brokers?
And is there currently a MT4 unfiltered data broker?

NxCore is not - NxCore is a high end feed. Problem is it is unfiltered, basically it gets ALL symbols, all the time.
Zen-Fire is the feed / system access of Mirus Futures, and they also do (soonish) Forex via Rosenthal Collins. Last time I talked to my account manager at Mirus that was "getting ready for clients within weeks". I will have to aks him again
Especially as I am interested in Forex, too.
When you have a funded acount with Mirus, Zen-Fire is free (for normal use - mass data collection is not accepted). My main issue with them (zen-fire) is that there are no tick "id"'s transmitted and no corrections (i.e. cancels etc.), so the feed is raw, fast, but if an error comes through, you will NOT get the correction later (which you do with NxCore).
That said, though, it seems that Zen-Fire is the best deal to have. Blazing fast.
MT4 - no idea. I personally dont like MT4 to start with and use "real" brokers. Mt4 seems to be hot in the forex area mostly.

Well, Zen-Fire "mostly" is ninja. They also have an API. There is atrial version - get Ninja and you can sign up for a feed trial, which will be zen-fire. Note tha this is a little filtered, from what I understand. Ninja does demo-account internally.
I am NOT using Zen-Fire, Ninja or Mirus productive AT THE MOMENT.
Basically I am moving towards them and trading on an account wih them will start... 15th of June. At least that is the plan - I am not able to trade till then thanks to a 60 hour per week work schedule.
I have an account openpending funding (which will arrive in time) through Rosenthal Collins Group. I did some asking around here and at elite trader, and ALL people coming foward had only good things to say. My experience so far was good, too. My account contact (AJ) and Pat (Zen-Fire) have been helpfull as one can ask for, despite various legal issues I was throwing at them (my setup is a little comliated mostly due to me being an expat and running the trading side through my business accounts).
Again, all people coming foward were very positive about Mirus and RCG in terms of uptime and performance. Pricing is good, too. Not the BEST, but then, one does not go for the cheapest - the value seems to be there, especially giving Zen-Fire.

Oh, as one negative side. Zen-fire does not do ANY back data.
Pat keeps telling me they are not a data provider. That is fine with me, but I would like a 5 minute buffer so I can reset a router during the day if I have to. If things work out with me and them, I possibly will replace zen-fire soonish with... NxCore.
