Please recommend no previous look implementation brokers. (Brokers must meet all 3 standards) If you disagree with someone's recommendation then explain why.

You need to understand what look is. The LP has the capability to recheck within 0-50ms or when they receive a request to reject your order. This protects an LP linked to a ECN from a quote that might have become stale. This occurs quite frequently, but you wont notice it.
A decent broker keeps track of LP implementation times on a normal basis and then switches LPs off that are under-performing or promotes those that are executing well. They can also personalize feeds for clients, but that's in extraordinary cases where you're doing lots of quantity (gt;100 lots/mo....really more like gt;500 lots/mo) Unfortunately, most of the retail brokers don't have a prime broker relationship (which is harder to get nowadays).
With that said, Global Prime Au, IC Markets, FxOpen Au or UK ECN accts, RubixFx are great for retail trading. Interactive Brokers if you do not need mt4.
I think fxpro is fast . I use also roboforex they are reasonable but fxpro is so speedy c trader

I need additional confirmation since they chaged there support way .Originally Posted by ;
Rides upon the platform, but most do. The two biggest interdealer platforms don't have this (Icap EBS Markets and Reuters Dealing). However, these two companies also operate a bilateral platforms (EBS Immediate and also FXAll, gaining marketshare with these) who do possess it. Other ECNs and aggregation service providers (Currenex, Hotspot, Integral) do possess it too, and single dealer bank platforms obviously too.Originally Posted by ;
Among the issues is that there's not much disclosure about the extent of last look privileges - how long can a price-maker sit on an order before either rejecting or filling it. Apparently typical is 300 or 200 milliseconds. Its basically a license to print money if not policed by the platform operator (marketmakers with overly high rejection rates could be disabled on a client-by-client basis).
How large is that? Basically all digital flow except EBS and Reuters Dealing (these two combined have roughly $200 to $300bn ADV) and CME stocks(last I checked about 100bn ADV). Having a couple more exceptions for example lmax who are tiny in comparison (like 10bn ADV).
Hi Spox,Originally Posted by ;
well perhaps it's possible to say where are you coming from since it's an integral factor. There are a number of different issues to consider when you open an account. What's essential for you?
Underneath your standards fits any STP/ECN broker with rather a experience on the market. If you want low spreads - may attempt FreshForex ECN account with zero spraed on EURUSD. What trading condition are important for youpersonally?
NLL and Fast implementation must come hand in hand together. Broker offering NLL but implementation is over 7ms (excluding your distance latency), is definitely not a NLL.Originally Posted by ;
A true NLL ought to be sub ms. But depends on their order fitting and Pre-risk test technology that could increase the implementation latency. But all should be on average around 5ms.
