Poorly news service in almost any MT4 Broker. Just few are the exception to the rule.

I mean, news service in the news tab, in the platform.

When Neuimex goes down the good news service they provided goes down too.

In fact, Neuimex news speed was quite far superior than other Brokers ( MT based and others )

It could be because MT is faster and news could be delivered in no time. However, as I said just a few broker provide good ones. Most of them does not cover forex/stock/futures calendar and fill you with really stupid news.

Is like to see a yellow channel. A good program is from time to time, but most of the time is junk.

FXDD or Alpari have DJ News Wires for clients only. Demos do not have anything. I can't understand why the difference.

Other brokers just send the header for demos, and full to clients. PFG FX is a good example of this practice.

Also, starts a interesting suspicious, if they can make this differences between accounts just for the news, imagine what can do with real accounts and quotes.

Almost non MT well know broker sends news trough the platform to demo clients as they do with real ones.
But, always is the problem of broker manipulation, news in this case, to produce a psychological reaction.
That´s a why a third party is needed, an independent provided. Because you wan´t the president's club arbitrage the match.

Another interesting brokers provide news in another language and you can't choose in what you want to read. Like WHC or NWFB, so funny.

I was testing MIG, but last week news service stopped and moved from VIP to useless. They used to provided DJ NW but now they provide junk.

ODL lies, the web page mention news but the platform does not have.

I don't remember what about Interbank but I believe they do not have the service.

Ok, the idea of this initial post is to talk about News service and MT brokers.

If you´re interested, post your comments, but please, don't forget some important details like broker name, who provide the news service (broker himself, Comstock, Reuters, Dow Jones) because we don't want the weather channel with presentations by some economist.

Speed is key but we also look for a good coverage.
IE: if Trichet is talking we want something more than a comment "Trichet is talking" we want details.

Maybe we can find some interesting.
