I am currently a customer of IB and I am very satisfied with them for electronic markets. But I would also like to swing trade some of the pit traded markets, which IB does not provide access to. Does anyone have any recommendations for a broker for someone looking to swing trade pit traded...

There seems to be almost nothing going on in the forex market for the last few weeks. I've been wondering why. I was thinking that the market was slow because of Bernanke's testimony was coming up, but that is long gone and the market is still dead. Does anyone have any explanations? Thanks...

You in Chicago? You know quite a lot about the European markets for someone in the US that trades US markets. Can't you also look at the component stocks with Euro Stoxx and Dax? Well I imagine Chicago is a bad time zone for trading Eurex in any case. My that is quite a commission bill...
