Forex broker which meets 3 criterias ...

Quote from Sunshine4ever:

1. low spreads on USDJPY, EURJPY, NZDUSD, AUDUSD, GBPJpY
2. high leverage
3. rollover time different than 5 pm ET

I've been searching for a while, and although I found brokers that provide 1 & 3, the leverage was very low.

Thanks for help!!!

PS: preferably US or UK brokers ..

(1) and (2) are mutually exclusive.

Which brokers did you find that fell into category 3?

5pm ET for rollover is the industry standard. I've never heard of any brokers/banks performing it at different times other than Oanda which has 24/7 accrual.

DBFX and I think Saxo have different rollover times.

1. low spreads on USDJPY, EURJPY, NZDUSD, AUDUSD, GBPJpY
2. high leverage
3. rollover time different than 5 pm ET

There was a pizza company whose TV commercials went like, "what do you want on your tombstone?"

They should team up with the bucket shop, I mean Forex outfit that offers greater than 100:1 leverage

:D
 
With great leverage

fxcm - they offer 250$ for GBP/JPY on demand ,that is 1:800
or 1:400 to usd/jpy

gftforex - 1:400 initial ,1:1600 liquidation

fxsol/proedgefx -1:400 initial


All have 20+ mln $ of capital ,but all are not pure agent ,which
to date is only hotspotfx ,which offer only 1:50


Your respectfully

Interesting.. that opens up a potential arbitrage scenario if so.

That's what the OP is after, of course. However, if one does the math, I believe any potential arb is immediately killed by the spreads, at both dealers.

Each 1% of swap rate &asymp 0.27 pip per day... not nearly enough to offset, let alone beat, the multi-pip spread costs. Leverage would not help at all - for this purpose it multiplies the swap rate and the spread equally. Which makes this otherwise interesting idea a non-starter, in practice.

That's with the likes of FXCM, er, DBFX and Saxo and their artificial, inflated spreads. Now, if you had a couple of true ECNs with different rollover times...
