Cheers.

MT4 brokers are marketmakers, and as such aggregate their own pricefeed out of whatever liquidity sources they have access too.

So does that mean we will have no idea where these market makers get their data, esp the prices we see on MT4.

To CWH: "Data source" means the origin of the data.

I understand that Saxo gets her feed from Reuters, so it will be better if we have access to a charting software whose feed is from Reuters.
