If you're with the Canadian arm of IB, you'll be covered by CIPF because Canadian regulators deem spot forex to be a security. http://www.cipf.ca/c_explore_coverage.htm :D

Thanks for the real-time snapshot cstfx, however is this the average over the London/NY sessions?

Just wondering...is anyone trading forex via XTrader from Trading Technologies? Can it be done? It's great software, but I have only seen it used in the futures space. Haven't seen any STP brokers offering this. Thanks. :)

Has anyone had their hands on this yet? I've heard a lot of talk and hype about this retail forex solution for the last year. Did it flop or still stuck in beta?

stop dreaming. There is no weekend market. Whoever is offering this to you is bucketing your trade.

Cybren...do you mind me asking...what kind of size are you trying to do when you experience last look?

best way to access bank liquidity is to go through a PB like FC Stone. You'll pay around $12 per mio but the credit screening process is far easier. You could wait months to get credit from a tier 1 name, if at all.
