    Headhunter in Chicago

    Check your inbox. Michael Page is the absolute worst. Useless. One thing you need to know about recruiters, you are important to them if they can place you if they can't they don't care and you are discarded. Most recruiters don't understand what you do and will look at your resume for...

    Are all retail traders aware of this??

    It doesn't concern me really because it's just nickles and dimes it's the principal of it, so between that, the fixed spreads and not being able to deal within the rates you are playing in a rigged game and I guess it just burns me that they are so able to remove money from people's pockets so...

    Are all retail traders aware of this??

    Absolutely, you could have done it easily between the two systems I am watching. I know it's their quotes but to tell me they are quoting me not based on a or the market but based on where they believe the market will be seems like a scam. I know the deck is stacked against you with these...

    Are all retail traders aware of this??

    I have had a retail FX trading account (no need to name the firm) and was comparing the interbank quotes I have to the retail firm's quotes and noticed the retail quotes weren't quite right. I called the brokerage firm and asked them what they base their quotes off of because clearly they...

    currenex vs hotspotfxi

    I would check hotspot's policy on cancelling orders. If I understand it correctly you CAN"T cancel orders within 10 pips of the mkt. It may or may not matter to you but to have handcuffs like that to me is not good.

    Sunday night with Oanda

    Didn't say I would trade with them just noted their spread that's all. This is just a test account anyways, after a short period of time if my model is successful I will move to an ECN type broker. I would expect within the next year the fixed spread brokers will all be gone anyways.

    Sunday night with Oanda

    Does anyone know what time on Sunday/ Monday Oanda stops this 10 pip spread bullsh#t? I was hoping to be able to do some Sunday night trading but obviously Oanda has decided not to offer it. Although I"m happy with Oanda so far I can't imagine being here very long with this garbage.

    Hotspot FX

    I've tried asking the hotspot FX rep on the board this question and he won't or can't answer me. Can somebody tell me what Hotspot means by this order restriction? "If an active order is within 10 points of the market, the order cannot be canceled. " Does this mean you cannot cancel...

    What FX broker's besides IB have access to interbank mkt?

    I'm looking for an FX broker other than IB (nothing wrong with IB) that offers FX Trading not against "the house". I would much rather trade in the mkt. Every retail broker has either a good platform and 3 pip fixed spreads (which in my opinion is a scam) or tighter spreads and a horrible...

    Futurestruth systems

    Thanks Jimmy, I am thinking of running non correlated systems in the hopes of smoothing out the drawdowns and to produce consistent (not looking for 100% a year) returns.
