    Any good brokers that offer 3 pips spread on GBP/USD and 400:1 mini account?

    Personally I would stay away from any firm that offers 400:1. I don't know how much your understanding about forex is but if they are offering 400:1 they are not only trading against you they will rig the game so that you lose. WITHOUT EXCEPTION! Keep in mind fx is not regulated and any...

    I highly doubt they still have any but the CBOT gave out a puzzle of the bond pit a few years back. It was fairly big and if you could get one would make for a nice decoration for you wall. If you ever in the Chicago area stop by the gift shop at the CME or CBOT. You should be able to find...

    Live Cattle

    Well said. I rarely ever trade cattle spreads with anything else that limit orders. The Aug/Oct that I got into was at record highs at the 2 area. They got to like 205 on a settle then got wacked and cracked.

    Live Cattle

    Working them around the 165 to 175 area. The sett. yesterday at 0.65. Don't expect them to be filled in the next day or two but I'm looking for them to run higher before the roll then get smacked when the roll gets underway.

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    They should have STP. Since Currenex is execution only the accounting features are very minimal. Therefore, Cap FX Pro should have straight through processing for all trades executed on Currenex. I don't know what the platform is but they should have one. Most likely you should be able...

    What are the options for trading on CURRENEX for a retail trader?

    As herring had mentioned to get the interbank spreads you need to go up to $80-100k account size. Although the minimum is $25K at aarontrade.com the minimums for the expanded Currenex are 250K, 500K ,and 1 Million, 5 million +. At that point, depending your account size and liquidity needs...
