Yes Minime, I am sure you are correct there .
Interbankfx claims to be an ecn .... but they are no more an ecn than the Pope is a protestant. seems there is a lot of false and misleading claims being made by brokers who don`t want to loose a piece of the action

misinterpretation
ECN's do not have standard spread. The spread is actually dictated by the market. In an ECN environment it happens occasionally that Bid > Ask. Also, ECN quotes have halfpips.

There is lots of ECN wannabes in the market. There are however communication protocols and bridges between MT4 and ECNs.

I was using Currenex from one the most reputable broker, and had slippage of 70 pips!!!!!! Also i very well remmember when Currenex was down for 6 hours, and i lost 700 usd.
So i think it is better to understand trading model, then make a desicion.
Beleive Ikon offers really good model.
really? because they told me ikon took the other side of every trade.

That does not make sense....

If a dealer or marketmaker makes their money from the spread alone...then they would enter a parallel trade in the same direction as you (or their net aggregate) in the Futures or with "netting"....

So, is there any mt4 broker, interbank or ECN where I can have variable spread?

I am anxious to see the Hotspot MT4 bridge. For now, they are not offering this service themselves, but they are looking for IBs or brokers interested on their services... Maybe some broker is already doing this? Check the link. Hotspot FX- API for Metatrader
