Hi Surfer-Dude: Hope I can help. For starters, there's no such thing as a bucket shop in the Currency Futures exchange. Prices for all brokers are the same, quoted from a central source (the CME). Here's a screen-shot of what my Yen chart looks ...

FX Volume Info

Getting FX Volume — If you give FX Futures a try instead of the spot market, volume is not only available, but very helpful in decision making. I'll never go back to the spot market again.

Hey, dude, with your attitude, you'll be a millionaire before me! You're alright, man.

is it feasible to scalp gbpjpy?? how??

Again, where do you get the idea that a Futures account is comparable to a ridiculously high $50,000 balance requirement? It's $2500 to open an account, and that will let you trade 4 contracts.

is it feasible to scalp gbpjpy?? how??

No Way!! — That's completely wrong. You don't need any more in a Future's account than a regular Forex account. $2500 minimum, and you can trade 4 contracts per trade. How is that risking more than a regular account? Furthermore, the whole ...

How About This? — How about this: Trading JPY futures on the CME (symbol is 6J) Trading GBP futures on the CME (symbol is 6B)There is only one tick spread on the CME! And the commission is only $5.80 total. And if you go in on a limit, instead ...

I posted this because ... — This video probably saved my trading career. After an extreme blowout, when I actually went through over half of my account in one session, I was feeling so defeated that I was going to hang it up. This got me back ...

Surviving a Trading Blowup

Dave, If it isn't right with finding honest brokers with the right spreads, you might want to try Currency Futures. It's centrally quoted by the CME, has no spreads (if you enter/exit on limit orders), and you can get commissions for around 5$ per ...

How the retail Forex works. Dealers vs. Clients

Surviving a Trading Blowup

Demos do suck — Demos do suck. There's no way I'm voting for John Edwards or Hillary.

A challenge to those who say Demos suck.

Well, not only are you intelligent, but you are a gentleman, as well. My whole theory about forex not being a zero-sum-game is because it differs in nature from stocks (or futures), which has a fairly static quantity, and a specific purpose. If ...

Now Darkstar, put down Keynes and take three steps back ... you are among friends here; no need to curse. And don’t leave now – you are a worthy and intelligent adversary. Help me out on this. I probably did a lousy job of explaining myself. First, ...

Where does the money come from?

Tony, Thanks for saying in one sentence what it took me 3 paragraphs to bellow out. I'll get back to you on the morality thing.

You may have a point here. Since I scalp, I'm generally in and out of about 5 -- 8 trades per session. However, if I was trading once a session, I would still have an expectation of how many pips I was targeting (actually, ticks since I prefer the ...

What is your daily pip goal?

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Yes, I can trade 24 hours-a-day with the Ninja Trader platform, if I use the Zen-Fire feed. Get a practice account to try this out. There are several brokers who use this combination; I use Amp Futures, and ...
