Are communications between CMMBTrader and clients secure?

All communications between CMMBTrader and the client are well encrypted using the Microsoft CrytoAPI and uses the Microsoft Base (or Enhanced) Cryptographic Provider. The encryption algorithms used are the RSA public key exchange algorithm and the RC4 stream encryption algorithm with a session key length of 128 bits.

CMMBTrader uses private/public key pairs to authenticate users and these key pairs are randomly generated from CMMBTrader. The public key is automatically kept at our broker for storage and the private key is stored on the client's machine. The private key can be either 512 or 1024 bits long and for all practical purposes, is impossible to break.

With proper local administration of their User ID and Password, clients can be fully confident that they are well protected against misuse of their accounts from the Internet.

How "Live" are the prices in CMMBTrader?

FX and CFDs products live prices are streamed to the platform directly through our liquidity providers.

CMMBTrader supports direct Forex trading on major currencies up to USD 20,000,000. Trades are executed on the price displayed (what you see is what you get) directly from the our price feed; thus making dealing quicker, more convenient and efficient. Our prices are highly competitive and we maintain a low fixed spread between the bid and ask prices, except in extreme market conditions.

Live prices on Stocks/Futures are streamed to the platform from the exchanges via a data vendor. In order to view live prices, clients must sign an agreement with the particular exchange on which the instrument is traded.
