It's not surprising when someone like Sarao or some indy/arcade trader continue to spoof after it has been outlawed, but I don't understand how compliance dept in bank don't shut their spoofers. Even we at ET were aware of spoofing becoming illegal soon after Dodd Frank came out. And don't say...

Indeed controlling your positions on a smartphone is really nice when you travel, but I would really like more real "mobile" traders. Like if every guy who spend 1/4 his time watching videos on YouTube/FB discover he can make money in the stock market on his favorite toy.

I want this trend to continue... Everybody should be able to place orders in the bus, train, taxi, waiting room...with nothing more than a crappy chart and a MACD. It's so cool... And people around you notice it..."Look that dude is buying cocoa in London, just like that"...Yoohoo... When every...

Are you sure? Since when? I submit a lot of icebergs and never noticed it. I guess I would have had a lot of trade-throughs if my icebergs were simulated by my front end.

Yes, he is selling his knowledge for free.

One time I got a refund from a broker because my trade was actually filled ( electronically) in the wrong expiry. I guess I would have suffered losses anyway...LOL. It was on ICE WTI before it became liquid. An other time, I was trading quietly when the telephone rings. "So what's up? You...

The broker asked his boss and the boss said for the size of the account( 250K$) and given I usually only use 1/2( max 2/3) of the account in overnight margin, they could waive it. I am in Europe and they are pretty aggressive at chasing clients here as they are creating an office in Dublin.

It made me think about Joe Hunt. An LA con man apparently funded Hunt's investment club 5M$.They quickly made a fortune( by pure luck of course as those guys had no talent whatsoever ), the only problem was they were on sim...LOL. So they killed the con man.

-It made me an illiterate after 10 years at watching ladders. I used to write well( in my native language, not in english ), nowadays I write like a 10 years old. I need to reread every message for missing words...LOL -It made me nicer than I used to be. This one is weird. The fact that I don't...

Good question, do you think if you put a sizable order on brent the spoof effect on WTI would be sizable enough to profit from it? IMO Perhaps on even more correlated or thicker instruments it would work but not on this one...

Interesting also to read that the european debt trade with short euro hedge wasn't so stupid. It would have been smart on a much smaller scale in a healthy brokerage firm.

That's interesting GAT. For example in 2014, I started trading with around 200000$. At the end of the year, the commissions + exchange fees totaled 67000$. I used X trader and X trader pro and had a minimum monthly activity fee of 1000 GBP at Marex. My fixed costs were around 1500 $ per month...

This one was nice as well;) I almost feel like I know what I am doing... If you guys had to sell AUD, JPY or EUR in your portfolio of currencies, what would you choose right now?
