Hi guys, just wanted to check few things with people who use the real thing at CMC. Im using their demo and maaaan that thing eats up a lot of resources. I wanted to ask few things. Why does the P/L doesnt update properly, is it demo only? I placed a trade after i was negative about 100 on my...

i use oanda and am very happy with it, but im curious how can they keep the spread this low? kinda makes me think if there is something to worry about since all the big fx brokers usualy do the 3 pip spread on majors. could oanda just be raking in new client funds with some profit margin for...

hey guys this is regarding fxsol platform, i've just player around with the demo and realized that fxsol tells you where you can place your limit orders to close out trades!!! I guess this is their way to prevent scalping, the system would not let me place an order that would be maybe 2 or 3...

Hey guys, well its been a while since i been here. currently im in europe and am looking to open an Introducing broker act with IB and establish a company to bring US markets to eastern europe. I have few technical questions regarding web site development and was wondering if someone out there...

hey chris, its funny but im trying to do something similar in europe, particulary eastern europe but not with FX but actuall access to US markets. If you start the business in your country of residence you will be responsible for your profits to be taxed by that country, your clients will also...

hey guys, sorry to post this here but i have exhausted my sources. I have recently gotten a new connection at my dorm and am having problems logging into tws. (IB) apparently they only allow few ports to go out from here. IM not sure what that means, but apparently there is a problem with this...

hmmmmm, well i guess this could be a problem for me as i want to file my return on line with hr block, and their system is set up so that you have to enter each date and purchase price etc... so that could be a real pain in the a$$ to do 200+ trades. i think i might take my chances and just...

coool, that just made my day. so just some sort of a brief summary and then a note that records are available should be fine. thnx guys, drinks are on me if you're ever in orlando. :D

hey guys, sorry to bug you all but i searched the site and couldnt come up with an answer to my question. I want to know how many schedule d's can you send the irs? i mean if you have over 200 trades, thats a butt load of D's, couldnt i just sum up the losses or gains and just say that on 1/1/02...

can anyone recomend a good site that would give me a list of the lets say top 5 or 10 most actives in afterhours, or most up or down stocks in afterhours. i know redibook had a nice little platform of course it was sometimes whacky but it gave me an idea. But that is no longer avail. I looked at...

Ok what the hell, down down 25%. still trying to find what works for me. Getting closer though - i think:p

im runing win2000 and XP home, wirelessly networked and its great. sometimes i do loose a connection, dont know why, but a simple reboot does it. But i am thinking about doing both machines in xp pro which i have, jsut never got around to put it on. it might make things simpler. BTW, it was a...

ok guys, ive searched through the site and i know it was mentioned before but i cant find it, when doing taxes do i need to show all transactions on schedule D or can i lump certain trades together. i know options dont get reported to the IRS but i'll show those but can i just lump some...

trajan- well like the previous post, the reason why im going into the options rather than the underlying is the fact that the NQ proved too much for me for my act size. i was not comfortable trading it! everytime i saw the setup i would start thinking -ohh man i hope i make money, i cant have...

the options onthe qqq's are very tight, spread wise, always .05, at least the ones in or at the money. thus if i see that the qqq or NQ are setting up for a move i can usually see the bids or offers disappearing and still have time to usually lift the offer or hit the bid and hopefully get in at...
