Volume differences among data sources and it's affect on Testing quality? - page 2

 

I've read many times that with ECN's there are no re-quotes

G - dont believe everything you read in Forex, there will be some small print that defines or limits this

If you allow unlimited spread, you may well get your order on/off under almost all circumstances, but would you really want to?

E.g. I have seen transient spreads of 64 (full) pips on AUDNZD at quiet times...

Also keep in mind that the more straight through the feed, the more likely that you wont get on (or off) at all just before or after 'news time', e.g. NFP Friday

So you wont be requoted, you just wont get a fill!

None of this is any reason not to play, just realise this is the (financial) NFL, not touch football in someones yard...

Good Luck
