FXLQ, IBFX and FXSOL all use the same (shady) clearing bank, Forex Liquidity LLC.

FXSOL and IBFX use Forex Liquidity (FXLQ). Velocity 4x appears to be a white label broker for FXLQ but they won't admit to it directly. They use the same marketing materials regarding their connectivity though (claiming a massive pool of 3 banks or something silly that FXLQ spoonfeeds people). 3 banks is NOT the same as 3 retail brokers.

FXDD uses a Switzerland based clearing house for liquidity, Tradition Group. They have the same address as Tradition Group's NY office. Here are the main links for research.

I think Tradition Group is no small fish considering they invest in developing nations debt, Energy, Metals, Equities, etc and has dozens of offices around the world.
I did a lot of research on FXDD before becoming involved with them. Tom O'Reilly and I have also spoken a number of times, he seems pretty straightforward and he follows through in my experience.
