This will make no sense as they get recalculated and updated automatically.
Why don't you just wait? Trading is a mind game and patience is a virtue. It will take three hours to calculate the first value. Maybe I will work on this somewhen.
BTW. Trading an illiquid market can and will kill you sooner or later. IMHO, some of your conclusions are flat-out wrong. What is your intent? Doing maximum damage to your broker? A true ECN broker will not take the opposite trade, he will route it to his LP. You will get filled or not. Your stops will experience gigantic slippage. Trading with a market maker is even worse. He will use all tricks to make you never win against him. And he is always on the long side of the lever. So what could be the advantage of trading illiquid markets?
Thomas, I think you misread me. I do not trade the most illiquid assets, I trade the most volatile assets that allow better returns. My intent is not to damage my broker, my intent is to invest in assets that pay better. The larger the standard deviation and the larger Mean High to Low value, the better the currency pair is for me.
To come back to the spread subject, my TDesk shows correct long term spread values for spread such as 1.1 or 0.7 but for all the spreads with double digit values it is showing wrong values below 1. I think the double digit part might be a good point to start investigating. I have been using TDesk for 2 months now and the spread issue has been the same for me with exotic assets having double digit spreads hence my contribution today.
Pleased to have interacted with you anyway
Cheers,
Paul
