good call on the made up crap

that deal seems pretty good...thanks

Of course commodity prices are too high. However, you have to remember that they are all valued in USD$. As long as they dollar falls the commodity prices could keep going up. It is tough to be a buyer in these markets because they need to correct but...I do not see a stronger dollar emerging...

I am a professional trader and use esignal. I have found it to be ok. CQG and Trading technologies are probably the best if you are a futures trader. That is what the pros use. However, they are pricey. Tradestation has good charts too but the execution end is not very good. Sierra is...

Yea the 5k thing was stupid. You cannot trade with 5k. it is useless. I do wish you the best of luck.

everyone makes mistakes. just keep trading. you will learn from it. If it this bothers you that much maybe trading is not for you.

if you are not excited about volatility you are not a trader.

I was referring to someones comment in this whole thread but it was on a page before your comments. I do not have time to go back through these comments but it was not directed towards you allenhobbs

They do not offer a demo because their Matrix is garbage. They have good charts but poor execution. I traded there for several years and I still use the charts but that is about it. If you are a serious trader think about paying for better execution software. Tradestation also is not a...

If cabletrader knew what he was talking about he would not be trading at a retail spot fx firm

The cash FX brokers only offset the positions that are heavily skewed to one side. For example if all their clients are buying or selling. If they can match the trades in house they will. They do not offset and hedge each trade. garcia was somewhat correct. read the fine print in your...

I have traded with Oanda. The spreads are ok. They widen them during times of high volatility like most market makers at times. Tradestation clears another fx company. I would trade with a bank or trade fx futures if you can afford it. The oanda platfrom is also not very good.

Why are you on here trying to pick bottoms?

You can make just as much selling as buying so maybe you should reconsider trading as a hobby for you.

Why not place your trades online? You have to be losing valuable ticks calling Nasdaq orders in. Move to the screen

I trade on MT4 in numerous accounts. Try Alpari, Fxdd or if you want a U.S. broker i think Forexte offers it too. also interbank but I understand that their Meta is not recommended for EA's.

I have been with IB for 10 years and they have never picked up the phone. That is why their rates are so low. I still have an account with them but if you want better service stop being cheap and find a new broker.

The euro and pound trend well and are fun to trade. I love these markets too.

I have an options account at IB. They are a big player in equity options. I would not trade anything else with them. The jack of all trades analogy is stupid. Why would you want to trade at a firm that is mediocre at everything. Ib is great with options and that is it. For everything else...

The housing market is getting better by the day because home prices are coming back to normal. This situation would have never occurred if people were not living beyond their means. Real estate is a market just like any other. It hit a top. Deal with it. Now it is time for the smart...
