Thats the whole point, you dont know which way it is going to go when the pair is in the middle of the range. Why place a trade if you dont know or if you dont think it is going to move in a certain direction. If you dont know or dont have an idea ...

Yea, but who knows if and when that will be passed. It is probably one of the better things the NFA could do to protect new or confused traders.

If he is building his own front end, there is no reason for him to open two accounts for hedging. Adal, all you need to do is make sure your front end realizes that when you want to hedge it shows two open positions instead of a flat position. This ...

thanks, as i am aware of this. doesnt mean anything, the only thing that means something to me is how long it has taken them to get registered. a lot of fleas and that dog won't hunt.

Broker Recommendation PLEASE!

Justin, There is no way that is true. Maybe MBTrading doesnt mark up the rates but TDFX does. One or the other your roll rates are way off current market rates.

There would be no algo for such a simple task. They would decide a percentage that they would like to make on swaps and mark up that much. From what I can tell, they mark up about 1-2%.

Your reasoning for why they do this is all wrong. The reason they dont allow this is because they are not in the business of losing money. Banks would tell you the same thing. I personally dont agree with brokers taking profit back and I have never ...
does you broker ban arbitrage on manipulated price quotes?

I dont understand that rule by ADM either. If there is a market and you want to deal in that market you should be able too. Does ADM stop pricing or do they just tell traders not to trade?

MBT and IB do not go inverted anywhere near as much as a Currenex broker that allows you to see it. Not sure why... However, if MBT and IB allow you to hit inverted spreads on the bid and offer; why dont you build a simple algo that does this and ...

Another MT4/ECN broker, any thoughts??
- fxtrader42 replied Mar 14, 2009
Actually, the way they calculate it is the way the banks charge them and it is the industry norm. After looking at what MB charges you can add one pip to their spread. They could actually have core spreads most of the time on eur/usd and usd/jpy and ...
