How to organise a minimum ping? Trade server in London - page 2

 

Ah, I get it.
When you boot Metatrader, the log says ping 50 ms.

 
I looked it up. brokers' servers are mostly based in london or amsterdam.
 
Server Muradasilov:

Here's another example - another broker 1.02ms ping when renting from MQ



Tremendous, 1 ping. Instantaneous. Too bad brokers are not as fast

 
Ivan Butko:

Bummer, 1 ping. Instant. I think it's a pity brokers are not so fast.


I think it's time to execute the order, modifications and so on is the same for all brokers and it doesn't depend on MetaTrader (I want to underline that) but it depends only on the brokers

 

Server Muradasilov:
 
...

PS. Now you can win only on the ping, the performance is almost all the same.

The actual measurement data for several brokerage companies tells us different, it makes no sense to fight for a ping of 1 millisecond. Execution on real trading accounts varies in the range 100-5500 msec, on average 1500 msec for five brokerage companies. Only on demo accounts the average execution is around 200 ms for 9 brokerage companies.

The actual measurement data for several DCs tells a different story, there is no point in fighting for a ping of 1 millisecond. Execution on real trading accounts fluctuates between 100-5500 ms, on average 1500 ms for five brokerage companies. Only on demo accounts execution is around 200 ms on average for 9 brokerage companies.


I should probably write on the spot that the execution time also depends on: (instead of saying that all have almost the same execution)

For example - Instant Execution, Market Execution, what kind of orders, the type of account.

And arbitrageurs, it is interesting how they earn, and to understand that you got the information in 0.35 - 2.5 ms, and someone from 45 ms to infinity.

I should have mentioned at the beginning that execution time depends on: (instead of saying that all executions are more or less the same).

For example - Instant Execution, Market Execution, what kind of orders, the type of account

And arbitrageurs, it is interesting how they earn, and to understand that you got the information in 0.35 - 2.5 ms, and someone from 45 ms to infinity.

You can use it if the difference between 1500 ms and 1455 ms is advantageous for your trading system.

You think you can't find a 100ms to 400ms version, why should you choose 1500ms or more?

He can't find it, it happens... or he doesn't want to.

I didn't really look, the performance is more than okay, for me (sometimes a little worse, but not by an order of magnitude...).
