FX clearing

I m sorry what does owned mean in this context ?? T

I see that you are not familiar with modern internet lingua franca. :D

When you were told that the ES only started in 1998 you said that you had been trading the big S&P 15 years ago and "thanks for the history lesson", thus you PWND the 1998 ES commenter.

BTW I still have one of those FM sideband blackboxes stored away.
 
Jeb do u remember being in a trade getting a signal loss and running around trying to get a signal with ur rabbit ears . I then moved on to DTN using the satelite if u could call it that . When my data went down I m standing out in the snow trying to readjust the satelite .. seams like yesterday . People have no idea how easy it is today . T

thank u Tim

What are you looking to do with FX?

Most of the FX dealers are bucket shops. If you want fair FX markets then use a broker with an ECN model such as IB or trade the Globex FX futures.

I had one of those flexible wire Y shaped FM antennas that I had taped to a window for best signal reception. It used to tick me off when sometimes a plane or helicopter flying overhead would interfere with the radio signal. The internet data feeds are like magic compared to that.
 
I do well in the ES and I thought I would like to get serious about FX trading at late hours , apply what I use in ES .
I just want a real deal and I don t know much about it but a chart is a chart . T

If u didn't care what pair u traded
u just wanted the tightest spread or most efficent cross what would u recommend

If you just want to stick your toe in the water, just open a small account with fxcm, onada, etc... Then when you get serious you can either stay or move on.

As for the pair with the tightest spread it’s EUR/USD. But depending on your time frame you can trade the other majors. I just shorted GBG/USD at 1.4228, looking for 100pips. I think you will like FX, it will grow on you like a fungus
