Good afternoon to all
I have a question about the best broker that gives the best tick volume , I use recently the VSA in my trading but I have a big problem in the volume because I find it not in harmony with the principles and the price reaction in my broker , the volume indicator also is very important and maybe it's a part of the problem , for me I use better volume indicator but if you have another good indicator please share it here.
The question addressed to the VSA experts and for every member can help me.

Hi Tarik,

The latest industry report by Finance Magnates for Q1 2015 shows that FXCM leads the way with $386 billion per month in retail forex volume (over 50% more than our next closest competitor). In addition to tick volume, our Trading Station platform gives you access to five real volume indicators.

In my opinion - volume is meaningless in forex. Especially with retail brokers.

Tick volume is aggregated from LP's of a broker and it's not from the real market just from the liquidity POOL where your order goes. To be precise it's called secondary liquidity pool (what's left after interbank and prime brokers)

Here is the screenshot of EUR/USD M1 candle from Hotforex as you can see there are only 33 trades done.
Obviously not all trades, but from certain pool, but still you can avail from this data, as generally markets follow same sentiments..

I had a similar question to the original poster and found this thread. Based on the information above I hope I can state my question unambiguously.

Q: Which Forex broker has the largest (in ticks/volume) liquidity pool?

I do not use volume metrics directly but my algorithms are (in part) statistically driven. The larger number of ticks that I can have, the better my statistics may perform. (Acknowledging that the statistics are only truly representative of the broker's LP, and hoping that LP bears some resemblance to the primary LP.)

Thank you in advance,

JI
