    EBS is in fact attached to Dukascopy. That's why you see large liquidity in Dukascopy.

    I understand this is a bit old, but I thought I'd lend some insight to those still interested about this topic. Some brokerages will provide pricing to those looking to trade levels. It is not unusual for a trader to be looking to trade these big dimensions, they do exist very frequently (in terms of a retail trader). Pricing will give you different costs based on your trade size - and if you accept the pricing, you can trade off. Most brokers will work with a pool of liquidity suppliers - those relationships are mutually beneficial for both parties, but in some cases there isn't the liquidity there inside that particular brokers liquidity pool at precisely the exact same price. In this case, the ladder comes into play, and there are always other choices like reducing leverage or obtaining access to outside liquidity if necessary. There's always a price being provided somewhere.

    Limits with my firm are always flexible and negotiable based on what the trader is looking for. After a transaction starts tracking towards 1B, you could get a call.

    I figure because of larger liquidity possible for ECN brokers (matching sources). Traders are offered DMA there nevertheless doubt that DMA is possible there with little deposits as orders less than a one standard lot will be implemented in mode. As I understand in ECN situation if big quantity order can not be implemented as a whole it is splitted up and paired separately (correct me if I am incorrect). I have never traded more than 5 lots on Tickmill classic ECN, but major lot orders goes considerably better through ECN processing in terms of slippage.

    No more than 5 lot? It ought to be. And are best for any trading purpose. But according to my years experience trade together, tickmill just had vintage and ECN account kind. And for maximum lot size, I think no brokers would put these limitation provided that there's margin available to put entry trade. But to put a single time lot order are simply put our risk on single price spot, hedge and split are kind of way to diversity our investment one of any potential pairs.

    Nah, there still needs to be some limit on lot size, possibly 100 or 200 lots, however it's most probably for institutional traders, for retail traders like individuals there ought to be a borderline someplace in 50 lots I believe

    Only confirmed. They have limit of 100 lots per trade. No limit for a number of orders.

    hmm. . 100 lots per trade , for that is not a limit. . But already one. But for institutional traders these may be common lot that they utilize.
    Based on my reading on several forum, executing bigger lot size could lead an excess lagging during execution, so far I am still never goes more than 1 lot in tickmill ecn services. Had you found any dilemma when 5 lot entrance trade with them ?

Based on my reading on many forum, executing bigger lot size could direct an lagging so far I never goes over 1 lot in ecn services that is tickmill. Had you discovered any difficulty when 5 lot entry trade together ?
    No Difficulties with Tickmill up to now. The minor problem is slippage, I suggest one, however I am overly idealistic about retail broker on NFP and events.

    However, what-if scenario there's a possibility for large enough order to not get filled because of no counterparty available on the market. Following this logic the bigger the order the harder is to cancel it (particularly there's not any adequate liquidity on the market). To reduce my vulnerability to liquidity risks I concentrated EUR/USD and XAU/USD instruments, I believe market is capable on these.

    Really. When I've countless dollar/eur within my bank, I'd lie on the yact with many long-leg models rather investing to the risky field.
