Any ECN with MT4 trading platform?

Thanks, tdion for doing the graft. I looking forward to the first truely MT4 ECN package, so I can save on some pips. I estimate an improvement to my account by at least 20%. Keep your posts coming.

Ah but the grass may not be greener, Digs. The broker will always charge you a commission (usually 1 pip roundturn, possibly more)

So you have to wait until you get choice (zero spread) or low spreads before it is beneficial. In other words, if the spread widens to 4 or 5 pips, you aren't gaining anything.

Then there is the risk of not getting filled with a large order.... so you might consider "chunking" your order into smaller ones.... and as you enter, the spread may widen on you (it's not going to be instantaneous, you know.)

I'm just trying to say that ECNs are no slam dunks!

the main benefit is not having a dealing desk trade against you.

I hope 8 out 10 times spread for GBPUSD will be 2 pips or less ( plus $10 per lot), that will be great for me !!

They say they are an introducing broker - do you know who they are connected with? Commissions seem pretty competitive.

Where does it give you the idea that TradeFx is MT4 with ECN access ????

My online chat with sales at ATC

Jack: Hi Ian,
Jack: most probably,
Ian: MT4 and ECN when do you expect it to be working
Jack: we will be one of the best
Jack: in approximately 4 weeks.
Ian: Cool, I have been watching your site for a while, there have been many delays, so 4 to 6 weeks is a good bet for world wide release
Jack: yes, again you can never have an exact date when your working with programers and this kind of projects, but the estimated time is 4 weeks.
Jack: if everything goes well.
Ian: Thanks

Metatrader 4 :

1. Minimum account size is 500 000 usd
2. Minimum deal size is 1 mln
3. Minimum monthly turnover is 200 mln
4. No commission

Currenex, Lava FX, HotSpot FXi, FXall, Baxter FX :

1. Minimum account size is 35 000 usd
2. Minimum deal size is 500 000 usd
3. No minimum monthly turnover
4. Low Commission

Those minimums are completely backwards. It should be $500k/open $200MM/month for the ECNs, not for MT4.

I have found two third party tools to consider
