Can I add my favorite LPs to AURORA?
Yes, you can add your favorite LPs without any restriction and FIX API work cost. We will add not only your existing LPs, but also new LPs you would like to open a trading account with to AURORA.
Can you introduce me to reliable LPs?
Yes, we are very happy to introduce some reliable LPs and they will give you specially customized liquidity service for you.
Can I have a rate feed only distribution from AURORA to the MT4 /5 platforms?
Yes, we have that service for you. Please contact us for more details.
Risk Management
How can AURORA prevent a Margin Call or Stop-out?
AURORA has unique Auto-Rebalancing features to prevent a Margin Call or Stop-out. If properly utilized, the AURORA will NEVER allow Position Accumulation with a specific LP nor in a specific instrument. Moreover, once pre-set limit exceeds the acceptable level, AURORA will automatically gray-out either Bid or Offer to remove it from aggregation so that only preferable side will be aggregated to reduce an accumulated dangerous position under the safe size. Or, AURORA can operate perfectly to stay around zero amount level position by switching Bid or Offer gray-out frequently. And of course, AURORA will allow you to transfer and exchange positions between 2 LPs with one-click operation.
Do I need to deposit and withdraw margin funds from one LP to another based on the positions I open?
No, basically you do not have to. If you have enough End Customer Trading Flows and their Risk-hedged Positions among LPs effectively circulate well, the P/L or Net Balance in each LP Account will fluctuate moderately with proper AURORA system usage. Therefore, it will be very low frequency even if there happens a fund transfer necessity.
Technology & IT Infrastructure
Do I need to use AURORA’s MT4 / 5 Bridge?
We strongly recommend to use it if you are an AURORA user. But it is not must. Normally the “MT4 Admin – Data Feeds” accepts multiple Bridges and the Rate Feed is given to MT4 / 5 as per the installed Bridge-rank Position. The MT4 / 5 architecture itself allows you to simultaneously use your current Bridge and AURORA’s MT4 / 5 Bridge and each Bridge will back-up and cover with each other just in case a certain Bridge does not work nor support a specific instrument. However, AURORA MT4 / 5 Bridge has multiple LPs behind it and works solely as if you added many LP’s Bridges in the MT4 / 5.
Does AURORA provide an API?
Unfortunately, not at this moment. We might arrange it if we get such requests in the future.
How often do you update the system?
We are constantly improving AURORA and updates and features are added regularly at no extra cost.
How is AURORA tested before an update?
We have manual and auto tests for all AURORA upgrades and test with both standard and extreme scenarios.
