We will be releasing our new Forex Trader this week!
In summary, quotes are displayed in individual cells which you can configure by clicking the configure icon on the toolbar and selecting FX Price Display in the left pane. Each cell shows working orders for that contract, and tells you if there is the possibility of price improvement by displaying a book icon next to the bid or ask price (see example in the bottom left cell, EUR/GBP above). You can display market data for other instruments as well, and you can drag an instrument from the FX Trader interface directly into the trading window. You can quickly invert the display by clicking the double green arrows at the top left corner of a cell. Inverted displays are identified by an asterisk after the title, and a blue "inverted" icon in place of the green double arrows. Submit an order by clicking the desired price. The order displays in the cell and on the Orders tab at the top of the page. Modify order parameters if desired and click Transmit, or check the Instantaneous Transmit checkbox to have the order automatically transmitted when you click a price.
Our quotes will range from .5 to 3 pips wide.
Clients also can use our FX Trader to trade other products eg futures, shares and options. Your choice on what trading environment you use.
