best automated NT/ forex broker combination?

[billr]

I would like to use a live forex account to run live automated trading tests in lieu of a demo account. (because I can trade as low as $1.00 per tick) However, I gave up my MBT account several months ago because of the constant quirks with their data and disconnects. Any suggestions on a good forex broker match for NT automated trading? (no GAIN please)

Thanks.

Hi billr,

We maintain a broker neutral stance so will leave this open for the community to offer specific recommendations. In addition to MBT and Gain, the other options for executing on FOREX are Interactive Brokers and PFG. Support for FXCM is coming soon.

MBT trading , Gain, PFG, and IB, not much to choose from.
Can NT be integrated in FIX API for more FX broker options?

Thank you for the suggestion, pipinvestment. I have sent to our product development team suggestions for FIX API comparability and more generally to increase options for FOREX. This suggestion has been assigned ID # 1416.

I am using PFG with no problems. They will accept forex & futures trading and have pretty good rates.
