    My issue about AMP

    As a new trader, I highly suggest that you try IG index. They are regulated by FCA have billions in capital and is a FTSE firm You can trade small small notional sizes and deposit 5 percent on indices. Google spread betting, there is enough free info on it. The spreads are a little bid wider...

    Since MF Global did anything change to protect clients from unlwaful behaviour from brokers?

    Since MF Global did anything change to protect clients from unlwaful behaviour from brokers?

    I am sure you are aware, brokers, don't have to follow CME guidelines of 15%. I'd guess that most brokers will only apply 75% of collateral value towards equity to protect themselves against clients as per my original comment above. This also holds true for bonds as well, not just gold. In...

    Question on Eurex Combo Execution

    just want to jump in here, the other guys are right but they are not helping you I would take the angle with IB from a regulatory perspective that they are not employing best execution practices that pricing has to be fair and transparent. Don't let this one go..they owe you a credit note if...
