MT4 to ECN via third party tools Here !

ECN = Interactive brokers (IB) , software is java TWS

With forex the TWS trailing stop BUY and SELL orders are essential so one can enter the trade from MT4 bid price, BUT exit the trade from the ECN market data. Thus avoiding MT4 data feed 100% on the exit. Great ! Stop hunters from your MT4 broker gone, just the ECN guys to complete with !!!

Choice one : Commercial costs a monthly fee

Buy hey thats two ways to get to an ECN from MT4.

If you know of any other tools or have personal experience with these tools please advise. I have only learnt about these in the last couple of days.

I am finding the link between MT4 and Dukascopy(ECN) the best way to go.

MT4 > AGENT API > Dukas Account (with some stop loss code via the Jforex API)

Conditions for Dukas
- mini acct $50k USD
- mini lot 2.5 or $250k USD
- leverage 1:100

To the moderator I am just tell my story and I not promoting any service, I a not associated with any of these products or brokers. So no more fines.

Interested in a bridge between MT4 and EFX group. Do you have one?

We do have a bridge, but its very custom, as MT4 is very different than EFX..

TradeCommander just released their new bridge MT4 to Interactive Brokers. It is a beta version, working until Aug 15, 2009.

MetaTrader - InteractiveBrokers Interface Application

It's amazing how many brokers will now be offering Metatrader 4. Looks like all of them are interested. Great news though.

Lets hope that Metaquotes doesn't f*ck up with MT5 the good trading platform
