I have managed to put on a short trade with Pepperstone on AMC and GME.. sorry not sure if this is the right channel.. don’t have any cool meme’s.. who else offers shorts on the meme theme ?
They both offer the same leverage offshore - Pepperstone offers up to 500:1 on Forex out of the Bahamas and IC offers the same out of Seychelles. Otherwise leverage is mandated by regulators generally at 30:1, however for professional clients in EEA, Australia etc.. you can get up to 500:1 with both.
Dave7878 (https://www.forexfactory.com/dave7878) - I'm really not sure its that clear cut in in terms of who is better. I do find the headline rates on FX are marginally better with IC but in volatile markets Pepperstone offers far better execution and spread - this is explained consistently throughout this thread.
Hey, I’m not sure I get it. A retail client in Australia can only trade at 30:1 max on forex. When you say 100:1 is standard, what do you mean? As I am a pro client there is no mandated leverage by ASIC.. most brokers offer 500:1 max for pro clients which works perfect with my algo..
