In reality, on a proper ECN, everyone can be a liquidity provider even if you are a small trader with a few thousand dollars. An ECN broker is and should be a proper exchange, not just trading from a price feed and getting faster execution than a market maker. The Bids and Offers need to be real.

Well if you really want to deal with them from time to time, an ECN account with FXOpen Australia can make that happen!

HI, can someone help:

For STP broker, in the event the broker goes into bankrupty due to any reason, is there any insurance protection or deposit protection? Im particularly referring to FXUnited (LMAX as liquidity provider).

Thanks.

Its best to source out a broker that is well capitalised.

Some brokers 100% segregate client funds.. these are Tier 1 brokers and I would stick to them.

According to me, providing same spreads as the liquidity providers does makes the spreads ECN..
The liquidity providers i know are Goldman Sachs, Integral, Credit Suisse, City, Bank of America, UBS, HIRO, HSBC, Barclays, Deutsche Bank. These are the Tier 1 Liquidity Providers known in the world. Its good to have a broker who is having liquidity segregation with these Liquidity providers...

what makes us believe that a broker is not lying about their liquidity provider anyway, they could list banks on their website, no one will follow to see if they actually send orders through the LPs or through their own market "in case they are a market maker"
