I'm thinking a bucket shop called mg.

If you have a complaint, explain why. I'm the third person who has questioned your accusation about IB and your response generally is "What are you an IB stooge"? Not the most reliable response. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1620292#post1620292...

It blows those 2 AWAY. I don't know why you would pay those rates when you get a service that is faster, faster, faster. Dude, what do you think, huh? Don't be a tool and expect anything to beat that combo. There is a reason why they are on the desks...

100% absolutely correct. Of course you will need 10MM to start. How many of you got that lying around? Buried in the couch cushions? If you don't want to deal with a firm that is based in Europe if you are based in US, then don't. But remember, this forum is not just for US traders. There are...

Online Bloomberg TV is on a 30-60 second delay. Free news service? Open a demo fx trading account with Oanda and use their news service. It's free, relatively fast, and much faster than the talking heads. It's a stand alone app so you don't need to load the trading software.

Cool. Go to the press. Drive traffic to this site. More people, more advertisers, more revenue. Go ahead. Go to the press.

The best way to trade currencies? get a prime with a tier 1 bank and trade directly with the interbank market (bank to bank, broker to broker) Need about 10MM lying around. But if you can't do that, than an ECN, like IB or FxAll, or Hotspot, or MBT or just about any Currenex vendor. You'll...

I agree. 100%. YOU should boycott Start now!

There was a link to the article, but someone with the power decided to delete the link (perhaps they could PM me and tell me why) but here is the artilcle referenced above: WSJ article available online: As subprime mortgage problems in the U.S. fanned out in recent months to hedge funds...

According to recent articles, currency trading worldwide is now greater than 3T UD$ a day, up from recently quoted figures of about 1.9-2.5T. Currency trading is no longer just for banks anymore:

The only shops that offer you leverage that high are the bucket shops, and they don't allow you to scalp high frequency. They can't, because they can't offset your trades. Trading with leverage that high can only have one outcome.

Forex trading, yes, it is a game especially with those "brokers" that offer you 400:1 leverage. True currency traders work with little more than 10-20x leverage.

You still haven't explained yourself and why there was a problem.

Got a question for you - is this Assent, or one of it's subLLC's that proliferate the landscape? I thought that Assent traders, those that work FOR/WITH assent directly had to be licensed.

5k with 10-1 leverage is about average for a new trader, especially one who, by your own admission, is not that experienced. If you prove yourself, they will give you more leverage - it takes time. But 1 cent per share sounds awfully high for Assent. I thought it was usually in the .5 range...

Well since it seems that the less-than-reticent poster prompting this change would be reluctant to give up his cc/paypal info, them I'm all for it. So is my sockpuppet above.

no, actually I am calling him a fraud

How about you take the time and explain your position instead of just posting these negative comments, newbie? Don't mean a thing without substance.

"forex news is from the same company this shill has been posting since he joined - a bucket shop known as mg financial I knew there had to be a reason why you would link the one site but not the other"
