Use Cases (Scenarios when our products can be helpful)
- As a news trader, I identify significant price differences between different brokers when the latest news is released. I believe there is an arbitrage trading opportunity, but I need an automated tool in an HFT environment, as manual monitoring is impractical.
- Calendar indicators present arbitrage opportunities, but their speed is challenging to follow manually. I require an automated tool to track information and identify arbitrage chances.
- With only one Oanda account, trading arbitrage is challenging due to identical quotes. I seek a tool to enable arbitrage trading with minimal additional costs.
Usage
- Open Fintechee’s WEB Trader or FIX API trading platform individual version (they share the same UI).
- Open a chart and add an indicator named fintechee_oanda_loader (or fintechee_crypto_loader).
- Input your credential information if needed.
- New instruments with the data source name are added to the instruments list.
- Click the “Change” button (refresh icon) to view the desired data.
- Access our Github repo to get the source codes named fixapi_oanda_arbitrage.js.
- Copy-paste the source codes into Fintechee’s console panel.
- Find the new EA in the EA list and run it.
- Solid lines indicate today’s market movement chances, while dashed lines show yesterday’s chances.
- “FIX API - Oanda” represents price differences between Fintechee’s Bid and Oanda’s Ask, and “Oanda - FIX API” represents differences between Oanda’s Bid and Fintechee’s Ask.
