Flat File Request

To Whom It May Concern-

I was directed to this forum by Phillip Kim at FXCM to place a request for a flat file on behalf of a mutual client of ours. To import trade data into our system, we require a trade file dropped each time a trade is executed onto our client's FTP. I have attached the required format and am happy to discuss. Please coordinate through Phillip Kim. Thanks.

FXCM Help is on a distinguished road
Ideally this should be handled through one of our existing APIs. You can view existing APIs at:
Forex Trading APIs | Currency API requirements

If you are doing an infrequent download (every few hours, once a day etc), then the Report API should be able to give you what you need. It is a simple API that will allow you to request a report between set dates available in several formats.
