I want to create my own Forex trading platform, but don't know what steps i need to take. I don't want it to be wide spread or become like a broker where people sign up for it, but trade it with a few select people. Is this even possible ? How can I get my trades into the market ? Would i need a liquidity provider ? What kind of licensing or paperwork do I need ? and finally how much would it cost?.....I know there are a few brains out there that know about this, any of your input would be greatly appreciated.... or perhaps maybe you know where i can obtain all this information. - Thanks

There's a free book you can download about trading systems here: http://www.fxsystemscompared.com - maybe that will give you some insight into how they work?

Its not realy possible unless you have a gread deal of money to invest in programming and writing the software.The best way to trade the forex is through a ecn which trades directly with the banks.Most fx brokers like oanda are clearing houses which fade youre trades.
