    Trading FX futures

    I agree with Reaver and Cable, I made the switch from FX futures and minis, to trading fx with the so called bucketshops! If you know how to trade it will be no problem. Reaver is right I have an account still at tradestation, becuase I do like there charting software. But trading futures...

    Nice trade trackstar, do you mind helping out a newb and just give the premise behind the trade. I see a double top on the 60 min at about 127.22 or so, I see you shorted 126.04. Just wondering why not the double top or maybe you waited for confirmation or something. Not looking for your...

    Is there usually a good play at the end of the day at the US close to play a reversal of the us mornings trend? Like the last half hour or something. I have noticed a lot of the last few minute moves lately toward the close. Kind of like profit taking. But not sure if thats normal or it depends...

    Forex.com?

    I have used froex.com(gain) thru tradestation and I think they are terrible. Now I use gft which is pretty good as well as mb trading for forex. The latter is an ecn model that charges commission its ok. So I have atleast a backup. Just get used to one and stick with it, dont just go for the...

    Fixed Odd betting

    Not anymore, I am in the us and used to trade at B.O.M for a while but then I think when we had the port bill go through when we were opposed to saudi arabia owning our ports, so they thrw the gambling (online) being illegal overseas. And then made it pretty much imposssible to get money there...

    which broker is better???

    I agree I use the 3 min to enter and 15 min for trend. I also look for candle formations on the 30-35-40 min charts. I find they work best on the long term. So thats what I do in my gft account the longer ones and then MB for scalping

    which broker is better???

I have researched fx for almost a year, there is so much confilicting info out there its hard to get a grasp on it. But I have gotten better at find out...

    which broker is better???

    No problem Trader Neal, I do the same thing. I use PA to determine a good place to trade. So thats why I can keep the stops tight. I use a candle chart as well on the 3 min so I can see whats going on. I also do not put my stops in with a dealer just another safe guard so I dont tip my hand to...

    which broker is better???

    Sorry Trader Neal just saw your response to me. When the dealers frown upon scalping its more geared to the trader who arbitrages the delay or pricing on one feed to another and literally takes a pip or 2 difference all day long. They dont like that. And it happens in mere seconds. When I scalp...

    which broker is better???

    Trader Neal, GFT is a good broker so please dont get me wrong. We have all heard the story of stop hunting and holding trades. But its just some people who do not learn where to put there stops yet or not put your stops. When its a broker its sort of a game where I do not show my stops...
