Actual price of the asset [difference between FIX and Trader GUI] WTF
23 Sep 2019, 17:11

Hello,

I've observed a strange bahavior when subscribing to market data throught FIX api.

The prices shown on Ctrader web platform are way diffrent then the ones coming to my FIX "implementation". I have made some test (Incremental refresh every 1 sec etc.) and run it on the same PC along with open CTrader platform. I'm seeing the differences in EUR/USD [ex. price shown by Ctrader is 1.09884 while the price sent by FIX is 1.09871].

Thought it might be a connection delay issue but since im running it on same PC I belive there must be a diffrent reason for that. The differences are also to big to be coused by a dalay.

FIX API and Ctrader platform are connected to the same liquidity pool and logged to the same account. Im using ICMarkets ECN.

Any ideas what is going on here?
