    Great rate, great service, great attitude

    I do not think so myself. You wire the money directly to Crossland. Trades are cleared from your platform directly into the account at Crossland. The statements are produced by Crossland . The introducing broker, DDT, acts just like a personal broker at Crossland, except that you...

    Brokers/ Platforms with Accurate Real Time Margin Display

    I found that PFG Best is another one with real time margining. In fact, I am very impressed so far with the demo of their BestDirect 8.0 platform. It has both all of the exchange implied spreads and user defined spreads (you can even request a new spread from the exchange dynamically) for...

    Great rate, great service, great attitude

    Howard told me that they pass through all discounts, specials, and reduced rates from the platform vendors at cost with no markup ever, so I am confident that if the platform vendor offers a lower price, they can provide it. Just email NT or DDT for confirmation. On the other hand, there are...

    They offer about 15 software platforms and just pass through the cost they are charged with no markup. Most of these software / trading infrastructure providers sell only through the broker but if there are any that also sell direct then I suspect you could do it that way - you would have to...

    IB No Longer Displays Realized FX PnL

    Once it is realized it probably passes into your equity at the end of the day once your statement is issued and they zero out the realized amount for the new day. I do not remember exactly. Have you looked at the statements for the days in question?

    IB No Longer Displays Realized FX PnL

    Do you have a foreign currency balance now? If so just set the entry point in the virtual fx windows and it will track your profit. It is there.

    IB No Longer Displays Realized FX PnL

    I have gone through it for my own trading.......but they should be able to help you also. Call the Hong Kong number now if you have problems- they are usually good and can handle customers from anywhere.

    Anybody heard of Generic Trade?

    Everyone says that about the website but actually I like their simple website. As a matter of fact, I come back to it all the time for its simple one page detailed list of all of the major trading platforms with detailed costs included. Name one other site that has that (actually there...

    IB No Longer Displays Realized FX PnL

    "The little girl told me IB didn't know if I was trading or simply making a currency conversion." That is the issue. IB uses a very general underlying approach in which you have debit and credit balances in each currency. This simplifies calculating rollover charges etc. You can still...

    Great rate, great service, great attitude

    Yes since the website says: "You Can Maintain Your Funds In Your Trading Account Under USD, EUR, GBP, Or JPY" and gives wire fees for both U.S. and International customers.
