    I am done with Futures... going back to Forex

    Played Futures nearly for one whole year with 40K capital. I made some money actually but now I have decided to go back to Forex. Futures market is highly fragmented and far ancient. I never understand why I had to pay $15 for CME fee when I trade with AMP Futures while I don't pay it when I...

    TOS/TD Qs regarding day trading

    Really does it take 2 seconds to fill market orders in Futures? :wtf: I trade Futures exclusively, and mostly I use market orders. I use CQG via Tradingview for execution, and even in Asian market hours, its market order execusions are almost instant.

    I was a forex trader and most brokers charged $8 per 100K base currencies (one lot in MT4 brokers), so I know I can accept $7. Trading sucess isn't dependent on reducing commissions as much as possible, especially when i am not a scalper.....

    Only CQG chart is different from others. Am I being too picky? I'd like to avoid CQG charts at all.... See Gold 60M charts from various sources and comment from CQG team. <AMP Futures' TradingView with CQG feed> <Thinkorswim Demo> <Investing.com> <Barchart.com> <email reply from CQG>

    Is AMP really cheap?

    This scenario is based on rough estimation (‘CL' used in this calculation). Assume I always buy or sell only one contract, and I trade only 12 times a month (total 12 contracts).
