Liquidity is an integral part of all brokerage services in the Forex market. Providing liquidity is easy with the Trade Master 9 native gateways that connect the platform to liquidity providers and ECNs (Electronic Communication Network).
The gateway is a native connection that enables proper data exchange between the trading platform and the provider's software. A gateway allows the connection to a selected provider in order to receive market data (quotes, depth of market, reports) and execute trade operations on the provider's side.
Through flexible configuration options, the gateway can be configured to meet the broker's specific requirements. It is possible to set margin rules, configure routing of trade requests, change names of trading instruments, convert price data, etc. After the gateway configuration, the trading platform will automatically send clients' deals to the liquidity provider according to the specified rules.
At present, Trade Master 9 provides native gateway connectivity to the following liquidity providers:
- Integral
- Cboe FX
- Euronext FX
- Currenex
- FXCM Pro
- LMAX Global
- Swissquote
- Alpari
We constantly strive to provide support for further development of such gateways so that brokers will be able to develop a gateway to any liquidity provider. Being part of Trade Master 9, the Gateway API considerably simplifies the challenge.
