Please help me understand why a strat is working way better on one broker
Posted: Tue Jan 31, 2023 5:22 am
Hi
I'm an algorithmic trader and I came up with a simple strategy (mean reversion),
the thing is that it works far better on one particular broker (like 2 times better, not a small improvement)
the broker is NDD and regulated so it's not a market maker.
so my question is :
do the other brokers filter the price to make traders lose more ?
or does the broker in question filters the price so that traders make more money ? (but why ? so that more people come to their platform ?)
or is it just the chart prices ? and real live prices are different ?
I don't know which broker to trust
thanks
