I am just getting started on devoloping a FIX Algo for trading FOREX through Currenex ECN’s my specs are 64bit Sun platform using C++ I was wondering if anyone here had a platform or template that I could start from, I dont want to waste time re inventing the wheel by writing a GUI, connecting to the servers sending the orders ect… I would rather spend my time working on the strategys. Thanks, Kevin Kurka [kurkafund@yahoo.com](mailto:kurkafund@yahoo.com) [kurkafund@gmail.com](mailto:kurkafund@gmail.com) ---

We’ll need a bit more information. Are you developing an FX algorithm or are you developing an interface to an existing algorithm? > I am just getting started on devoloping a FIX Algo for trading FOREX > through Currenex ECN’s > > my specs are > > 64bit Sun platform using C++ > > I was wondering if anyone here had a platform or template that I could > start from, I dont want to waste time re inventing the wheel by writing > a GUI, connecting to the servers sending the orders ect… I would > rather spend my time working on the strategys. > > Thanks, > > Kevin Kurka [kurkafund@yahoo.com](mailto:kurkafund@yahoo.com) [kurkafund@gmail.com](mailto:kurkafund@gmail.com)
