If you have 20 years and experience, hopefully you have some positive statements and I think looking around into getting positions in home offices as they first stop. That being said, I can't imagine someone running a home office will be interested in your trading strategy when their job is...

I had the same experience of R123. Other FX brokers are terrible and probably outright crooks when there are major announcements and there is significant slippage, stuck orders, etc. IB is Wayyyyyyy better as the execution is quick and not as much slippage. Will never go back to other brokers...

Don't send a request through the Elite Trader email for a demo request. Seriously, call or email the company directly for a request like this before you insinuate they have poor customer service. PS. No affiliation with JC. Just affiliated with common sense
