What frontend are you using with this? From what i can google, this appears to be targeted at small/mid-size institutions. But they don't really have much information about that on their website.

1 byte? Sounds like an awesome format. Care to share some details?

Google using C#?

RCG has(had?) something too, Integral based. But its completely pointless, they charge a stupidly high commission AND pad the spread 0.2 pips each way. There is an increasingly anti-competitive tendency in american retail fx. No big wonder, when the NFA shuts down a RFED every other month...

TickIt has quite some success with this (now with TT). I have never used it, but apparently it works for what it is intended for. I dont know of any other trading related software with the 'visual paradigm', that isnt a complete waste of bytes or vapor. There is one for parametric 3D design...

Futures would be taxed with 0.01% (each ctpty) per transaction. At least according to the last proposal.

FTT = financial transaction tax And it will not be implemented before 2015 at the earliest, and not by germany alone, its an European initiative by 11 countries. There is still no proposal from the eu commission, only the last proposal which is outdated. Futures will be affected for sure...

I think its not so much a loophole but the U.S. authorities not caring that much about a few smalltimers or they just didn't get around to them just yet. Not a loophole, because whats the legal basis of enforcing american regulations/law in an extraterritorial fashion? They simply dont apply out...

No he didn't..

Why is it that insane? DAX futures are 25x..

How exactly is it possibe that you wipe your account out due to a 30 pip spread? Can you give more details than that? Its hard to comment without knowing exactly what happend. Clients losing money the legt way, isnt really unheard of either..

Its Gods punishment because gays and liberals wont vote for Romney.

Not because its to slow, but what makes you believe that there are even 50mm in the book?

The difference is that they are actually matching orders on-site like an exchange (price/time-priority) and not "route" out orders and just wait and see what comes back from LPs like MB Trading and such. This, and the existance of an actual rulebook, is a noteworthy difference in my opinion, and...

There are OTC products for hedging gap risk, but i assume not very accessible for retail. Google for gap notes, daily cliquets, gap risk swap.

collage: like atticus said, open an Oanda demo account. Buy GBP/USD and look at the exposure-tab. Close the trade. Sell EUR/GBP and buy EUR/USD and look at the exposure tab again.

Could someone explain what blues/greens/golds are? Not really privvy with the rates-lingo..

But why FX futures? And compete against themselfs(IMM/Globex) ? The only reason i can think of that this gains any traction is maybe some european participants that have to use domestic exchanges for some obscure regulatory reasons..

Does anyone know how Eurex comes up with a full point? Do they have a chimp and a dart-board somewhere, who draws up their contract specs? Because i fail to see any kind of reasoning behind this. One tick in Fesx is a whopping ~4 BPs while the half-tick in FDax is like 0.7 BPs. I would have...
