Hi Richard
I’ve noticed AlpariUK doing a *lot* of requotes recently while placing manual trades. I assume it is because of general high volatility, but still, should this worry us Alpari clients?
Hi Armin,
I personally only use MT4 brokers for EA trading. I rarely use them for manual trading because the order execution can be terrible – i.e. requotes, disconnects, slippage. I think I tried Alpari for manual trading about 2 years ago and had a similar experience i.e. excessive requotes.
Interesting, Richard. May I ask who you like using for manual trades…?
Interactive Brokers. I mostly use them for stock trading, but their spot fx execution is pretty good. Their platform’s a bit complex, and the leverage is lower (1:40 or 1:20). I think the minimum is 10kUSD to open an account. I also occasionally trade currencies using Globex futures. I have several futures brokers. I also have a TD Ameritrade account which does much the same as Interactive Brokers. All these brokers are much bigger than the typical MT4 broker.
Thank you Richard!
