Anyone that has an ECN model. Interactive Brokers would be a good example. If you use GFT, FXCM, or any of the other bucketshops they are on the other side of all of your trades. The more money you lose the more money they make. Your failure is their success. It is an extraordinary...

I was just at the web site for Las Vegas casino Luxor. On it there was a stock photo of a woman in a convertable looking somewhat intoxicated with both of her arms raised high. Interestingly this is the exact same photo that GFT Forex had in ads it was running a few months ago in some...

Unless I am mistaken most of these are not tradeable. Does any one know if/when IB will make these exotics tradeable versus the USD?

With the hybrid you too will have to fight black boxes and quant programs.

If Yahoo hadn't have made the moronic decision to buy Broadcast.com (a worthless piece of shit) Cuban would be working for minimum wage at Dairy Queen.

Should I restart my IB Trader Workstation software or will that make it worse?

"As a broker whose job security might be in jeopardy, I oppose Nybot going fully electronic," said Hiroyuki Takada of New York brokerage Aura Inc. "But as a person who's been witnessing lack of market integrity in the open-outcry system, I'm very much in favor of that move."...

It will be interesting to see how long it takes for the pits at NYBOT and NYMEX to die or at least become irrevelvant. The sooner the better.

Could you tell me which are the best forex brokers for a long term position trader (holding for days, weeks) that wants to have access to an extremely large number of exotic pairs? I don't care about getting the narrowest spreads or trading during news - all I care about is getting access to...

I agree with what you are saying but how can you explain the registration page for DBFX being at a domain/web address that is owned by FXCM? I want to believe that DBFX is legit, maybe you can convince me if you can answer my question. Also I am not saying that FXCM is using DB's name...

Based on what the first post on this thread said, it is basically impossible that DBFX is not FXCM. If you go to DBFX and follow the links to open an account you eventually get to this page: https://dbtr.fxcorporate.com/fxtr/ If you go to register.com or a similar site and do a "who is"...

Note that dbFX and FXCM offer the exact same pairs and the spreads are exactly the same on every pair except for NZD/USD which differs by one pip. I guess Deutsche Bank has reached the same conclusion that FXCM has: that the retail FX customer is a sucker to be raped to the max without...

Busted!!!!!!!!!!!

It is hard for me to believe that a big time player like Deutsche Bank would mess around with a scam artist like FXCM. But then again, my experiences in the world of FX have taught me that what is hard to believe is often what is true. I sure hope dbFX is not affiliated with FXCM because I...

http://www.dbfx.com/ Any thoughts on using Deutsche Bank's dbFX as a broker? Legitimate option? Or just a bucket shop with a fancy name?

Ditto. Data but no charts is quite weird.

What do you trade sdtrader?

What brokers and data providers do you recommend for trading the Asian futures markets? Also, if anyone knows of a good broker for trading Asian stocks (especially Japan, Korea, China, India) please let me know. Thanks.
