You think Oanda is expensive? Try TDA! They're killing me. But I learned to trade on ThinkorSwim and I'm having a hard time giving it up. I'm watching MT4 vids to try and learn to use it. So no more fixed spreads with Oanda?

Ok then. But how would the dealing desk brokers make money when 95% of their clients are taking money from them? Just through spreads and fees? Seems to me that all of that money would be gobbled up by the winners.

So where are you getting these numbers?

From NFA.futures.org: The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued final forex rules which become effective on October 18, 2010. Any firm acting as a counterparty to certain retail off-exchange forex transactions is required to ...

Thanks for that info!

I'd say poor money management and lack of experience. I was paper trading since Oct 2013 and just went live this month. It took this long to get my confidence up and trade a full quarter without a losing month. That was the goal and I stuck to it. ...

TDAmeritrade uses Gain Capitol for fx liquidity. I've heard both good and bad about Gain but as far as I can tell, TDA is a reputable broker.

And things were so great BEFORE Dodd? Like when people were losing homes and we had to bail out the banks? If you believe that, there's no point in debating here. It's a forex forum so I'll leave it alone.

So our FX trading environment improves but then we have to bail out the banks AGAIN because of greedy Wall St. con artists? That doesn't sound like a viable trade off.

I used to paper trade with IB and yes - you'll need $10M in change to trade forex. Either that or trade cash only. If you have $200k or so sitting around, it may be worth a look.

I agree completely Forexia. But Pipmaster77's point is that he deposits very small amounts at these brokers and utilizes the generous leverage. If the account gets wiped out, he deposits a little more. This, opposed to depositing a LARGE amount and ...

I noticed you always mention you have an "offshore broker" but you never mention it by name. I found it in your profile. I'm leary as hell about sending money to an offshore broker but I may have to give them a try. The fact that you DON'T mention ...

Just don't report it. What's the problem? JUST KIDDING!!! I'm far from an expert, but I'm pretty sure it's up to you to claim your wins/losses in forex. They don't report anything to the IRS. Maybe some people here can give some good suggestions on ...

I'm pretty sure I read on another FX site that Jason and other FXCM user accounts are not real names. They're accounts that ANY FXCM rep can use to drum up business.

I'm no expert at this and I'm still paper trading, so help me understand this. Either you must be right the vast majority of the time or your account is getting wiped out on a regular basis. Do you just keep feeding the account another $500 when you ...

WOW! You can go to jail for smashing a car window and grabbing a laptop, but people like Dror Niv and William Ahdout can pull this off and simply pay a fine? And not out of their own pockets, but the company's account? Sorry if this sounds too ...

Those would be great if U.S. traders were allowed to use them.

Well.....now that this thread will soon come to a screeching halt, where are all of the U.S. traders planning to move their trading funds to? U.S. traders don't have many choices.
