Tickmill’s FAQ says FIX API is offered to large private and institutional clients, with a minimum balance of 500,000 in GBP, USD or EUR. That is not a standard retail API, so FIX is recorded as institutional-only. The UK futures page refers to Trading Technologies’ API, which is not a Tickmill Open API. MT5 Python is yes because MT5 is offered.
