RE:

Yes, you are right! Spread was volatile that time and you are right again. I checked Journal and i see, both platforms were connected to different proxies, but im asking you now. Is it a reason to have almost 20 pips difference between cTrader & cAlgo and/or between 2 different proxies?? ...IMHO, i dont think so and even in mt4 i had spread lower ;)

2nd thing i would need from you, please, provide me "Connection Settings" for London-3 proxy. I asked already my broker, but they told me, they dont have that information.

and 3rd thing is, could you please provide me tick data from 13:29:30 GMT to 13:30:30 GMT. Looks my broker doesnt record tick data, they cant provide me that info, but might you do.

Thank you very much & im waiting for your answer. Best regards.

We've checked ThinkForex live spreads 06.12.2013 at 13:30 UTC. Spread was very volatile this time because of news event, it was changing in a range from 0 to 20+ pips. So you could see different spreads if your applications were connected to different proxies, so each application needed different time to receive actual quotes. cAlgo and cTrader automatically choose proxy to connect based on its latency and loading.

We recommend to host cAlgo on a VPS close to server for high-frequency trading.
