I`m from Oz and trading during Sydney Asian and Europe times. I`m with Interactive Brokers and the spread is wider during Sydney times due to lower liquidity. Eur/Usd is 2-3 pips and in Euro times it gets down to 1 pip.

the true cause of spread widening during Sydney???

always interested in other views of the market............... shorting below the midway point of this bracket..........do you mean you would go short below 50% of the 1.23-1.34 range and why there?

still in my trade - price now 1.2884 and expect it to go down more. if price goes back up to 1.2918, stalls and goes down to 1.2900, I`ll be in for another contract with SL @ 1.2930

Jacko's Forex House of Pleasure and Pain

short 1 contract @ 1.2968 - SL 1.3030 we`ll see what happens

price going down on the 4H 1.2970 now when it was still around 1.3000 it hit 1.3025 twice before going down, so was thinking to go short at 1.3025 with SL @ 1.3085 for a quick trade. might short now if it reaches 1.3000 again.....any other takers?

I`m with IB and what I do notice is the following. suppose I place my buy order at 1.4650 and when it reaches that price I see 12.1m at the bid. 12m goes and my 100,000 are left. In come more orders, 5.1m now and those 5m get matched. in short, the ...

Is Interactive Brokers really #1?

I would go with forex brokers from bank divisions like dbfx (Deutsche Bank) and Citifx Pro (Citybank) and the ABN division. I know some others might insure deposits, but I do hope when the crunch time comes, that those brokers paid the insurance ...

Alpari

what about dbfx, which is part of Deutsche Bank cityfx pro, which is part of Citybank would these brokers be safer because they`re backed by the banks?

Going live with USD100k, which broker should I choose?

maybe their platform is not great (is that what you mean?), but is your money not safer with dbfx than any other broker?

I think the problem with carry trade and grid systems is that on the way up you`re in with a few positions to take advantage of a favourable tail wind. You cant have a large position at that moment, because you need a lot of margin in reserve for ...

sold, yes, the unit size would need to be the same in both scenario`s. FxPro.com has 500:1, but if their interest rates are any good I dont know. I suspect that with my "strategy" you probably can only expose 5% of the margin at the most on a ...

Xaron, thanks for the head-up. I thought the same as you do, but being quite new to forex I was not 100% sure. My opinion was that with 400:1 leverage you can put a lot more orders in than with 50:1, provided the order size is the same. You will ...

sold: thank you for your demonstration; keep it up now if I were to trade this strategy I would go for: 1. the broker with the highest leverage 400:1 2. the broker with the highest interest payout then I would look at highest fall in the past in ...
