    A few questions about FOREX trading

    Sorry for the miscommunication, I didnt mean an Introducing Broker, but rather a discount futures broker like Interactive Brokers and the like. Just futures don't offer FX mini contracts, its the land of larger players. One of the reasons, it's regulated.
