mt4 at the biggest bank in the world! DBFX!

here's my chat with them
info: Please wait for a site operator to respond.
info: You are now chatting with 'dbFX Sales and Client Services'
dbFX Sales and Client Services: Welcome to dbFX Instant Messenger. How may I help you?
Jawahn Thompson: I wanted to inquire if you offer the metatradr4 platform to clients?
dbFX Sales and Client Services: yes, we do offer mT4 through a bridge provided by Boston Technologies
Jawahn Thompson: is this for corporate clients and individuals as well?
dbFX Sales and Client Services: any type of client may use this service
Jawahn Thompson: ok, do you have a link to the mt4 demo page?
dbFX Sales and Client Services: i could email you a MT4 demo - however keep in mind this is a shared demo, meaning you are just testing our execution - other users demo trades will appear on the platform
Jawahn Thompson: oh ok, i found the demo on the Boston Technologies website. thanks for your time.
dbFX Sales and Client Services: sure no problem

spreads seem pretty good to me! i guess when you get an account with them, you'd have to request you want mt4 since they have no link to it other than on the Boston Technologies site

Pretty sure this came out over a year ago..

Spreads are fractionally wider on the MT4 bridges provided by Boston Technologies (FXCM, DBFX, CitiFX) as part of their compensation for providing the bridge.

actually, when i looked, dbfx is pretty low. you see, i trade T101 and i trade all 14 pairs. and the spread on all the pairs in citi is no better than broco at around 60 pips total. but dbfx is half of that at this time of day. the most I saw was 50 maybe for all 14 pairs. that's says to me they may have a bit lower spread.

also, they have a different feed for autobahnfx prices. all we get is retail for demo purposes.

Autobahnfx prices are most likely reserved for their institutional players. MT4 retail traders would have to settle for the crappy bridged retail feed.

For those that do not know that DB Autobahnfx is: http://www.autobahnfx.com/

I'm sure they use that for their corporate accounts, whcih start at 25,000.00 min BT bridges to that as well

autobahnFX - you need to front $20 mio to get in. It's an institutional account platform only.

So, can you get the Boston Technology's "bridge" with other brokers that are not setup for MT4? Or, do the brokers themselves have to provide this option?

Instead of the BT bridge, may I recommend a rope ladder would get better performance. :-)

LOL, it's more useful than the others.
