Using a FIX client live

Imported from previous forum

Suppose I’ve developed a FIX client with my own trading algorithms and tested it with some of the free open testing environments, and further suppose that I want to run it live on Nasdaq or some of the other main exchanges. Are there any vendors out there that provide a fix server linked to the exchanges, and that can be used for a fee affordable by a student like me? (I saw Nasdaq charged $200 per hour for that service)
