Exactly.
Afaik what most companies do to get the lowest response time from the actual foreign exchange is setup office nearby or as close as possible then install fiber channels directly from the office to the exchange for the shortest distance. You would have seen this in any trading related movie that tries to be accurate non fiction.
If you cant afford to do that, there is even office space you can rent out along with renting fiber channels access directly to the exchange at a cost that is cheaper spread out than installing all of this for your own company but not having full control over this fiber channel does pose a risk that if something goes wrong you need to wait for someone else to resolve it.
That is reality and with MTI bankroll I would have done exactly that yesterday already, the added edge you get compared to the other 99% layman using these middleman brokers could in theory if MTI had any actual magical bot turn a losing bot into a winning bot just by the sheer volume of scalps you can perform also assuming you have a capable bot which is entirely different.
All of these things still would not guarantee or quote any sort of "expected return" , their returns get averaged out after operating a year or more where the trading results noise is all but gone.
