Can any broker answer my few questions here?


1) If i have to trade both forex and futures at the same time with the same platform, does that mean fundsfor both futures and forex would be the same and can be used?

Can any broker or user answer my few questions here?


1) If i have to trade both forex and futures at the same time with the same platform, does that mean funds for both futures and forex would be the same and can be used so that the gains in forex would for example offset the losses if i am trading futures? I mean when Ib says their account is universal then it should be like that.

Any help from anyone?

The answer is no at IB. See the original thread.

In case you weren't aware of it, starting another thread on the same subject and bumping it after half an hour is generally not going to get you an answer faster on this forum.
