Wow, that's awesome! I think I'll try them out too. $3 per lot seems pretty cheap also. $6/round, that's like... less than a pip. :) Thanks for the recommendation! [edit] Hey Crazy, a question for you. Do you ever get filled at a price that wasn't the price being shown on the...

Hey Crazy, Yeah, I was thinking about HotspotFX also. I've heard HotspotFXi is better, but I'm just an individual trader. =P Well, good luck on your trades! :)

Hi Viper, Thanks for replying. That is exactly my plan -- to use fibs to get in on retrace depending on deviation from consensus. Interactive Brokers looks like a pretty cheap (commission-wise) ECN. I'll try their demo. Anyway, if I get in on retrace, it seems like people are taking...
