While I know there are always ways to "get things working", I was wondering if you will have a Linux version of Omega.

Thanks

Justin,

I never cease to be impressed by your competence and professionalism. I've been waiting for your new platform. Once it's working fine, I'll sign up. Keep up the good work.

I assume the above diatribe was directed at myself.

To be honest I am not at all happy with the underlying insinuation of the text. Believe me, if I wanted to waste my time and effort 'bad mouthing' an organisation I could do far better than my original post.

Anyway, Justin, I have emailed you over the weekend in the hope that there may be a solution to the problem. One thing I can say with utter certainty, a firewall problem it is not.

Many organisations freely discuss ongoing issues in public. Sorry, I was not aware that EFX Group took such an exception to this.

Our plan was to create the final destination for traders…the last stop on the road to true market access and high-end tools for traders, and attach that to our execution.
Looking forward to it!
Thanks for your help, Justin!

I really mean no offense, but it sounds like you're experiencing 'persecution complex'. I'm sure most people here didn't see Justin's message as directed at anyone, and didn't contain 'insinuations' as you claim. It certainly wasn't a diatribe, which dictionary.com defines as :

"a bitter, sharply abusive denunciation, attack, or criticism".

Justin's messages were neither bitter, abusive, attacking or critical. If anyone wrote a diatribe, it was yourself in your reply. However I also believe your original message was not 'bad mouthing' and was simply a statement of your problem, which is fair enough... I just don't understand why you took the defensive after Justin wrote a few lengthy messages, which he often does, and usually not directed at anyone in particular, he writes them for the benefit of everyone so they understand the situation better.

I think everyone here wants to hear honest opinions and experiences regarding EFX. So, let's hear it while remaining calm

Regards,
Jin.

sp123,

The swap rates are the same for all accounts regardless of volume since this is out of our control. It is only the commission levels that can be adjusted for higher volume traders.

Justin wrote a couple of posts ago....
1)The new platform, the new interface, the ability to trade wireless, major technology enhancements to improve speed globally, basic charting, and management allocation tools in Stage One.
 2)More advanced charting (trade from the charts) and order types in Stage Two.
 3)Auto trading features and scripting in Stage Three.

Hmmm. So, after stage 3, you'll essentially be giving us what MT4 gives us today? :

Sorry, I just really like MT, so if you would just kindly copy or reverse-engineer their software, and put everything it has into yours, that'd be great !

Of course, MT already has a defacto scripting language that many people know how to use, and yours will be different....but will it be better?

Other than this, you are on my list of top 3 brokers to look at when I go live.
Disregard all prognostications.

Hey Guys ~

EFX is pleased to announce that we have created a set of tools for programmers to easily connect your front-end product directly with our FIX-based execution. In other words, you can bypass the Navigator completely and execute straight through to the banks if you are a developer, and we have created a streamlined method for doing so. If you are interested in this, please contact me and I will forward your request accordingly. Our new website will have further details and a sign up page, but for those that want to start now, please contact me.

Yes. Quotes come through the TDFX API though.

Justin, you said before, "Likely improvement in swap rates (already available for high-volume traders)."

Please explain what "rates" will be improved.

thanx,

for me I don't care about improvements on commission side... I'd like same commissions but charged under a once per round turn model instead

I've made a spreadsheet for calculating comish and whatnot, but I have to manually update the current prices for it to be accurate. Is there a way to pull current prices into Excel? Via a macro or sumthin?

Thank you.

Hi Pidgeon,

Would you care sharing with us who are the other 2 brokers that you consider being in the same league with EFX?

Just like you, I am still with a demo account but thinking to go live in a few months. Would be interesting to know what other broker people interested in EFX would consider for a live account.

I think you can do that with the SDK, there is an Excel example there but I didn't look at it.
