    MBT Demo sucks!

    Has anyone used Buttontrader with IB for forex trading? If it works as well for this as it does for stocks and futures, it's probably a good upgrade to the TWS, even with their Fxtrader frontend.

    No Longer A Bastard

    Just read everything. Unless he is subsequently charged with facilitating a fraud, he's not going anywhere just yet. From what I read, he wasn't arrested or charged.

    No Longer A Bastard

    Proof that it doesn't take much to be a moron: "Kalinina and Adams were married. Kalinina's live-in boyfriend, Dmitri Chavkerov" Article doesn't say if Felix is a resident or he already got his citizenship. If the former, it's back to Siberia; they'll yank that green card so fast. He has...

    What a F'n Jackass Publication!

    I just sent him and Randall a carefully crafted note about how I feel about this. Based upon this crap, I don't know why another no longer active poster got so upset about not being part of the idiot "in crowd" Care to comment Randall? Or do you support this crap? Oh, let me guess, it's the...

    Suggest a Forex Broker

    Sorry to burst the bubble, but InterbankFX IS a dealing desk broker, even tho they claim it on the front of their webpage. How can I be so sure? For starters, they are a known bucket shop that will switch you to manual executions if you trade to much/too fast. Google them and take your time...

    Rival CME exchange

    Reading the article I saw the list of big name players, but one was conspicuously absent from the group, Goldman. I thought that was interesting, especially with the forays into attempted exchange ownerships of late.

    IB spread on USD CAD is poor

    They claim the spread can be "AS LOW AS " 1 pip, but I have never seen it, even in the fastest of markets. Can you also believe that you can find spreads as low as 1/10 pip on the GBP/JPY as well? Also, if you go with MBT, your commission costs jump 150% than what you pay at IB ($2 vs 5), so...

    IB spread on USD CAD is poor

    On Sundays open, Oanda keeps spreads at 10 pips on pairs until 8pm then allows them to "float". Their spreads don't tighten until Eurpe/USA time, even on the Asian pairs, which I thought as quite wierd. You'd think the Asian pairs would tighten up during the Asian sessions.

    Getting Even

    try a program called mailwasher. You can scan the message before actually downloading it to your email clients and if you don't want it you can bounce it back to sender (if possible) Also can remember senders so that it will automatically screen these aholes in the future.

    OANDA: What is the deposit/withdraw processes for OANDA

    Open a sub account and fund this with a wire xfer. Doesn't have to be much. Maybe a grand or so. Once set up, move your money from main account to sub account and trade from that. You can withdraw your profits (if any) from the sub account directly via the form it was financed with. Money that...

    Seth Tobias RIP

    What? FOX running a salacious, titillating, tabloid story with no real information as "news"? No! Not FOX! Surely you meant another network, no?
