    Professional Grade Retail Broker \ FX.CFDs.Futures..

    Newedge will certainly not be viable with a 100K or 250K account. For FX i would look into: LCG (all the ususal multibank platforms - using JPM as pb) Fixi (same, using UBS) LMax (exchange-style order execution, they got the top 10 FX banks and more in their system) And there is...

    when non tobacco is tobacco - socialism in action

    Its a big lobby muckracking where e-cig startups will likely lose out, since they have virtually no political sway. Pfizer even payed off the american anti-tobacco NGOs to campaign against ecigs (they see this as competition to their nicotine patch and inhaler business).

    What type of chart is this?

    Looks like a 1-tick chart, where the green dots are best offer and red dots are best bid. You can make similar charts with eSignal (for example).

    NGAS price unstable in break time or closed? FXCM

    Yes, you can't offer OTC products like spot fxor CFDs (through non-NFA members) to american retail customers. The CFTC did enforce this aggressively in the past, they even got firms in places like Mauritius to settle with them.

    London knows the game is up for USD.

    I wouldn't count as the Chinese as our new overlords. They have cheap slave-labour, but not much else. An appreciating/free-floating RMB would put an end to that too. P.S.: does that look scary? http://imgur.com/pPKgkvf
