Lol, the spammer peddling "Amarkets" in one thread after another accusing others to be spammers. Always funny

Best Broker?

Onyx, I would say that all this is usually more talk than anything else. Legally, if the broker goes BK, the customers' money belongs to the customers, whatever account it is on. This is of course, if that money is still there. The broker will ...

Broker handling client money?

HI dude, I feel for you. It is sad. A broker controls the prices they quote, if they accept the opening/closing of the trade, and so on. In fact, they control every aspect of your trades. So, to come afterwards and claim they are unhappy and erase ...

Offshore Brokers Not Regulated by FCA

Rockthe pips: I don't know if it's just that, but did you try a right click on your symbols' list and access "symbols" in the menu ? Maybe some products are just not selected.

ExNess

You're right, it's a little bit more difficult for commodity futures, and IB doesn't allow any of them. They don't allow US Treasuries futures delivery either. But forex futures, no problem at all. You just have to let the contract expire, and ...

Reliable broker for USD/RUB

I just checked, and you are right, I missed that part. I'm not sure if you're talking about Rubles or futures contracts in general. Interactive brokers allows taking delivery of all major currency futures contracts without any problem. And for ...

Reliable broker for USD/RUB

There is an "ignore" button, and there are private messages to insult yourself (or discuss anything not related to the subject). This is really disrespectful for all members to hijack a thread like this just to show to everybody how dumb you are, ...

Pepperstone Forex

If you want to hold OIL, one way or another, you will have to pay. Either by rolling futures or "futures cfds" or by paying swap on cfds if you don't need to roll them. The short answer is that there is no FREE way to hold OIL at the moment, ...

Broker that allows long term hold on commodities

Skat, I meant, YOUR source was that article (that I cannot read), right ? "they say it was a false claim against pepperstone, and since clients' funds are kept in National Australian Bank they think it is pretty safe" Funds may be safe at a ...

Pepperstone Forex

Not necessarily, it's usually only a rebate of a portion of the spread they are charging on every transaction, reason why you need a certain amount of transactions to really get that bonus. For example Dukascopy offered a Bonus at one time, and it's ...

Can anyone recommend a reliable Broker?

Skat, what is your source about the "The accounts also reveal there is a $14m shortfall in clients’ funds" ? Is it the article from TheAustralian ? I cant' read it, you need to have a subscription to the newspaper to access that article. As ...

Pepperstone Forex

Tschim, I don't know if "classic" windows applications can run on windows mobile, as I never had a windows mobile phone. But, what you can do and that I used a lot, is set up a VPS (Virtual private server) where you run your windows application and ...

OANDA Discussion

Atokys, are you saying it's too hard to go back in the thread or read the threads dedicated to the subject ??? It seems indeed easier to ask without doing any effort, but do you really expect me to explain everything all over again because you wrote ...

OANDA Discussion

Mingary, I mainly agree with you. Besides, it seems the opportunity is too tempting for most brokers. Now to be 100% fair about Oanda, the CHF event was a special event, and I feel they had the hard choice of taking losses themselves, or screwing ...

OANDA Discussion

Because you're only loosing money and funded your account with a debit/credit card (which is limited to 10k only: url ) I may be "dumb stupid" (according to you, only because I got trapped by Oanda in the CHF event), but I still know to look at a ...

OANDA Discussion

+1 You're the one giving them (hopefully temporarily) your money, not the opposite. All these questions could be understood if you were getting a loan or something like that (aka: RECEIVING money from them !)

Broker denied me from opening an account

Srt: The guy asks the question for IB, so I'm not sure an MT4 script will really help him. Sw88: That's forex 101: In a forex pair, the first currency determines the quantity, the second one the "pip value". You can think about a metal, for example ...

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

I highly doubt you will get an honest answer from Oanda or anybody related to them. You are 100% correct, you will have a nice big fat account, be confident that your funds are safe with Oanda, try to "save" (lol) the withdrawal fee they charge on ...

OANDA Discussion

Lasty, the subject of the thread was: "The broker uses the money of the customers to hedge himself' ... Now, it's a very good point you're bringing up. I understood "hedge himself" as what I understand it means: To really HEDGE his exposure, not ...

Did you know Australian CFD & FX brokers can use your money?
