Hi,
does anyone know which broker gives you the ability to trade a synthetic book of the spread and let you run an automated strategy on it?
I have seen that IB gives you this book but I'm not sure if you can run a strategy on it.

Thanks

Hi Wikmar,

sure, I'm still in the developing process regarding automating a spread trading strategy. It will take some time to get some result and when it's time I think that make it run on a synthetic spread book instead two or three books may be more efficient in terms of execution.
But since it's not something I plan to do today I'm just collecting some general opinions and info without going too deep.

I will share any info I get.
