Simulated order in FOREX

[bmaltz]

When trading Forex, you can't specify a volume trigger. So, because of this, is it still possible to use the Simulated Order capability of the SuperDOM for a FOREX order?

Thanks

No you can't, there is no real volume in FX through GAIN.

I tried searching and couldn't find anything. Could anybody please explain the volume data on Gain FX, for example the EURJPY chart attached. Is that a simulated volume from cumulative currentbid for the bar period? Does that mean Gain is now providing Bid Ask data to NT? and from what 'exchange' is this coming from? Thank you in advance.

There is no real trade/volume data with GAIN (as with other FOREX brokers). NT "simulates" the trade/volume data by the bid.
