Forex Factory Market Goes Live

Forex Factory has launched a live version of its unique aggregated broker quotes. This is a serious step forward in the system, making it more accessible.

Forex Factory launched the system three months ago as an independent multi-broker forex quote system. In my initial report about Forex Factory Market, I wrote that this is a great development, as FF is an independent forex portal, which doesn’t lean on a single broker. The quotes from brokers vary, and FF shows them all in one place.

Now this tab gets a boost by adding the “Live” feature. No need to refresh the page. This makes it more accessible to many users that don’t like hitting the refresh button and are used to quotes that are automatically updated.

In their blog post announcing the feature, they mention that this feature needs to be turned on each time, thus not wasting resources from their servers and from your local computer. Having performance in mind is important for usability. Not all websites take it into consideration.

I’m happy to see this development, and I hope to see the Market tab and Forex Factory continue to evolve.
