I have a custom web app I'd like to connect via API. Because the browser API doesn't allow direct socket access, I was hoping you all had (or plan on having) a web socket interface? I currently have to bounce the web client thru a server simply due to this.

Simply wrapping the existing FIX & FAST interfaces with a web socket interface would do the trick.

We offer FIX v4.4 and FAST connections. Review our documentation at: http://www.gainfutures.com/api/api/index.html and click on OEC FIX and OEC FAST for details.

Thanks Chris,

In case I was unclear, I am aware of the FIX & FAST connections. These are socket connections and cannot be used from within the browser. I'm asking if you have plans on supporting a connection that can be used directly by a web application - websockets being a likely candidate.

Given that your platform doesn't support the web or mobile, I was hoping you all had a web/mobile platform in development with a corresponding API supporting web clients.

We do not offer a wrapper to access an API via the web, nor do we have plans to offer in the immediate future. We have had 3rd party developers use our .NET API and FIX interface to build their own web interfaces. We do have a mobile application that is offered to our Introducing Brokers that have a mobile agreement.
