HFT High Frequency Trading bot - BROKER?

Hi @Motasem91,

I have “punch” your mailbox. All depends on God now, weather the message is received by you. :grin:

Btw, what is the meaning of essential? Something likes essential oil? :rofl:

@TYGMedia
Can you send a message via the message box. I’m trying to send you but it doesn’t respond

Hi @Motasem91, It was sent to your message box. :rofl:

Many asked me before. It seems when you can’t send me a message, you wont be able receive a message from me either. :grin:

I don’t know the reason. Perhaps, you have to work hard to let your account eligible to send / receive message. :thinking:

Hi @TYGMedia

I am new to BP.
I have an HFT EA and an VPS server.

I tested at least 30 brokers, but it turns out on break even or even small loss on live accounts.
Demo just works fine

Can we talk in private chat or do you have any tips for me ?

Kind regards
Chris

Hi @chris.grdt, many other new in BP tried to send me massage with no success. You my try as well. Only few of them, not a new member, can send me messages. :slight_smile:

About HFT, just how I had explained, HFT is very sensitive. All depend on how your algorithm works. You need real account to run HFT. Demo account doesn’t work. HFT can’t work on every broker. Most HFT need broker with tight spread.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I already figured it out that I need a low spread broker. As I said i tested at least 30 different brokers.

What broker do you recommend for a HFT?

It would be very kind if you could share this with me.
With pleasure as a private message too.

Kind regards
Chris

All depends on instrument and your algorithm. I can’t explain bluntly here, it may cause excessive exploitation to the broker.

Make sure the brokers are regulated, offering raw or zero spread. If possible the commission fee need to be super low. Otherwise you need commission free account but the spread should be bellow standard. Example, I’m using these brokers:

IC Markets, Pepperstone, Go Markets, FP Markets, Vantage Market, Exness, TickMill, XMGlobal, Multibank, StarTrader.

For example you HFT to XAUUSD, compare their spread one by one. Look for the lowest spread among them, then try, It’s not necessary the lowest gives the best performance.

Thank you very much for your reply.

I am trading US30.

@TYGMedia can you send me a private message?

I would really like to talk to you about the topic.

Kind regards
Chris

Hi. I Will just ask you here. Is it possible to eliminate slippage that the broker puts in the terminal(mt4) ? When using arbitrage HFT

Hi @cobrakai12, I have sent you DM. Can you read?

some notes before the HFT on MetaTrader 4/5:

  1. Indexes usually have no commission, and they are more likely to be suitable for HFT.
  2. Some brokers end quote and trading sessions and the pause between the end and the beginning makes a hole in technical analysis (example: DAX on RoboForex “sleeps” stop trading for several hours and opens during the European session, while on ICMarkets quotes come in).
  3. Broker filters its source of quotes, because excessive receipt of ticks overloads servers (example: 100 ticks may arrive in 1 second, or they may be reduced to 10, which also affects the tick history and here the issue of ping is not raised yet).
  4. Broker can put you in a certain group and put a delay on order execution (from 0.5 sec to 1sec), include in the order + a couple of points of course not in your direction, throw in quotes to trigger the stop if it is short, and as a rule in HFT the stop is only a few points from the order and there are a lot of other things on the broker’s side, including a filter on the order volume and its execution.
  5. Ping - yes, one of the important points if you have ideal previous conditions. Of course, it is better to use VPS from MetaQuotes themselves, because there are many advantages in processes and speed (one example is the absence of charts and many other things that the system wastes resources on).
  6. in the HFT robot, it is better to do stops and trailing stops in the OnTimer() function, otherwise if in OnTick(), then multiple trading requests coming to the trading server can “delay” it and then either you will be limited in the functions from section 4, or simply banned from trading, in the best case until the trading robot is fixed.
  7. The best brokers for HFT on MT4/5 are liquidity providers, you can easily find their list on the Internet, but choose a larger one, because most likely you will trade against the broker (B-book), and you are unlikely to be allowed to the external market (A-book) through MT.
