Newbie Questions Starting with the basics
Posted: Sat Jan 28, 2012 6:52 pm
I have spent a few months now (before joining) reading and keeping an open mind. Before I get stuck into trading any system I want to do my own due diligence..
I downloaded some EUR/USD Historical Data through Dukascopy.
1) Is Dukascopy still the most accurate of all the forex providers of historical currency data out there?
2) Which one of the Forex Brokers along with Dukascopy is best for trading.
Will this brokers feed be similiar to Dukascopys historical data feed?
3) I looked at some of the prices provided and here is a sample of them.
Time,Ask,Bid,AskVolume,BidVolume
02.01.2012 00:00:01.984,1.29475,1.29445,1.50,1.47
The spread here between ask and bid is 3 pips
Is this correct?
03.01.2012 07:00:00.585,1.29827,1.29817,1.50,2.25
Is the spread here 1 pip.
03.01.2012 08:00:00.064,1.29884,1.29876,1.50,3.38
The spread here is 0.8 pips
Which Broker will provide spreads similiar to this?
