Why do you believe that? TDFX (the one MB uses) is 3dforex, see: http://www.3dforex.com/

No, when you want to trade on the currenex platform, you have to go through a broker or bank. It is just a platform.

When it comes to interest/carry rates, Oanda is the best in the retail section bar none. For example, they pay 3.9% on EUR account balances for any size deposit. Quite good, considering the EUR base rate is 4.00%. Their IRs bid/offer is actually quite near LIBOR/LIBID. IMO a good broker for...

The downloadlinks on this website arent working. Is this thing still supported?

There have been some interesting articles about FX dealing venues, market participants, discussions about what is "best execution" in FX (price is only a single factor in that), polls and comentary and outlooks on the current situation by industry leaders from the buy and sellside, structure of...

Interesting Thread:) I always considered the buying/selling blackbox/EA-system business as somewhat dubious. Good to see someone putting it to an what seems to me unbiased test with some real money. Do you see discrepancies with the advertised results and your own results? Its probably too...

Atticus: whats the subscription fee for SD-FX? This looks like an interesting piece of software..

Both MBTs and Hotspots FX-feed is on Tenfore and Esignal, both brokers and data-providers have APIs. Tenfore-clients can additionaly order data-files that are to big to download on CD (for free AFAIK).

Ah ok, i see what you mean.

The "moving prices on clients"-part seems to be made up by the OP. The NFA-document doesnt mention this. Also looks like a $100.000 fine wont hurt them much, compared to the gross revenue of gain listed in this document. They should start giveing out fines in the millions to prevent that sort...

So how exactly did they loose you money.

EuroFX contracts are 125000 units each, pound is 62500. I think most others are 125000, see CME pages for details. There are mini-contracts for some pairs, but they are illiquid.

I am not familiar with the esignal or tenfore api, i just know they provide mbt-history to their clients.

No, it doesnt. They will provide history through their API "soon(tm)" tho. P.S. you can get MB's history through the esignal and tenfore api.

You asked for *FX brokers* that offer *spot oil* tradeing. I am very sorry, but you have no leg to stand on when it comes to call other people amateurs. I meant my first answer, altho sloppy in phrasing, quite serious. It would appear i have to spell it out once again, just for you. Lets...

On the ICE you trade future-contracts, not spot. Oil(what sort of oil, btw) spot is traded like 99% of all other things on earth, OTC. If you want to do it, i suggest you setup oil-tanks and get pipeline-access, and you should be good to go;) You wouldnt be looking for a FX-dealer for your...

That is the very nature of an interestrate-differential, the both cant be the same (as long as the two currencies have different interest rates). Its no differnet with EFX, i.e. for USD/JPY you recieve 2.73% for longs and you pay 8.66% for shorts (which isnt exactly attractive either). By the...

Does your very smart man wear tinfoil-hats too?

Whats it with all this flameing? The OP said, the IB institutional clients head-honcho is promising him his money since 3 weeks, and he only recieved 100k until now. If he tells the truth, this is an obvious fck-up by IB, what are you even discussing about.

Funny:)
