Kain: About the Ruble, quite everybody did the same yesterday (I agree it isn't an excuse). With small differences. Just raising the margin was maybe not the worse. It's was a quite exceptional situation, but it's still not nice. Some brokers didn't ...

You know what, you're right ! I have been tricked by the increase of almost 5 to 6 pips of this "positive swap" integrated in the future contract. But it was before that it was too small, probably due to the rollover of december to march contracts. ...

The nearest future contract (march 2015) is trading exactly at 1.20000 right now, it's scary. It used to trade around 1.2006 the past days, now, bid/ask is 1.2000 / 1.2001 with transactions at 1.2000 ! I opened a few longs at 1.2005 thinking... I ...

Lol, EVERYTHING is tradable OTC. Do you even know what it means ? Insider is right, there seems to be EC options on EUREX according to their website. But I can't check, I have access to EUREX, but my broker disables all the FX part, because it ...
