As a previous poster mentioned I aswell applaud the NFA & CFTC for their efforts of stepping up capital requirements & monitoring of forex dealers. As there is a new forex broker opening shop just about every week, these outfits should be closely monitored and closed down immediately on any...

Its been a long time coming Def for ASX stocks on IB, I can't wait to see them on TWS!

For the benefit of us all, the US government should take firms steps to induce the chinese to float their currency unconditionally. Why should they have an artificial advantage over the rest of us? Why not let the rates find equilibrium through natural market forces? The chinese must think...

In my opinion; The markets have been in a commodity fueled bull run since march 2003 when the US military entered Iraq, all in the meantime inflation had been tame with low interest rates and a robust labor market giving consistent growing corporate earnings, so price was/is rising in line...

There must be a HUGE market for a prop firm that offers TWS front-end. I wonder if IB wouldn't mind such business? Maybe they could finance a prop firm and operate under the umbrella of TimberHill and offer the advantages of prop trading themselves to qualified accounts that have been with IB...
