While you're at it look up www.moneytec.com - a forex trader web site.

As someone else said " Read the forex threads here."

Us the search facility for lots of info. on Elite Trader.

Look under "Misc. Futures" then "Currency Futures" on Elite Trader.

Good Luck:)
 
Learn from stocks, brokers make you broke, trade with a Bank. (Moderator edit: deleted name of firm) At a fcm/brokerage firm besides them making up their own prices ,so the fact they have 3 pip spreads it does not matter , unlike stocks their is,NO MARKET, I am ex stk trdr . So spreads is a bad way to approach. you want best fills , at a place that won't literally move a market to take you out and you safety of funds.

Also you want a non-market maker/broker.......a bank

At a broker your money is with everyone elses so if they have 3 Million only the first 100k is insured , the only way is, if they open a totally segregated account for you, which they do not.
Their is No SIPC like stocks, so FDIC is best bet in ypu own account.

Esignal is a good choice for forex data and charting.

You are saying to be S&P emini trader, and you still
don't know that Esignal is a feed and charting package
which has nothing to do with the spreads as they
aren't brokers?

I don't need spread and want to be able to click
on inside bid and ask price, then you can try this two:

www.hotspotfx.com
www.forextrend.com they have joined with
Esignal for trading.

But they don't have mini forex account, therefore you
have to deposit more money.

Futuresource.com with platinumfx is bit faster and reliable
than esignal, but the package costs 100$ (250$ monthly)
more than Esignal, but feed can't support 3rd party software.
