Nonsense. Emotion is always involved, if not now then when his positions grow significantly in size proportionally to his account. The key is not in ignoring or suppressing the emotional process but in becoming fully aware of it, and then ...

Interesting. I traded at LCG and they require $50k for cnx access which I negotiated down to around $28k.

It's ok for some charting. Many find it sufficient and swear by it. I find it lacking on various levels. For example it doesn't support tick data, has no DOM for ECN's, does not have advanced order types, and so on. I also dislike its order handling ...

Just curious, how low exactly? Looks like a genuine offering so far, unlike that of HotForex. Metatrader sucks btw, and it's not meant for cnx (which has its own java platform and API system). Some brökers make an MT4 bridge to connect you to cnx, ...

If you did find your sustainable edge, you will keep winning. If you didn't you will lose, and the sooner that happens the better so you can improve and not waste too much time with something that isn't working. Look at it that way and you will ...

UP 124%. What Should I do? Have you been in my shoes?

I tend to see such access as more than just the "shown" price feed. What matters more to me is that my orders get passed to the actual network and liquidity pool I am told I am told I am taking part of; which is not only important for insuring ...

1) Suppose they do use aggregation of trades, that still won't guarantee that all orders are passed to currenex (this being a "currenex account"). What if the aggregated order size at a given moment isn't big enough to qualify for cnx execution, ...

HotForex Discussion

I traded through the real cnx (currenex) and I know the kind of trading conditions associated with such high-level access. They are definitely NOT inline with what HotForex is giving. - Trading platform: MetaTrader 4 <--- MT4 as a cnx platform? ...

Forget it. Just like online casino "bonus", Forex "bonus" is ALWAYS total bullshit. I take it as a bad sign when a bröker says it offers "free bonus". It just shows that they're that desperate to attract new traders. Again, just for the record, ...

I was addressing his statement that the market is not a competitive environment because it's: which of course only shows a lack of understanding of: 1) The zero sum nature of the market 2) Market microstructure and the limitations it has, and ---> ...

How do I move forward?

haha, this couldn't be farther from the truth of the market. This IS a competitive business my friend, probably THE most competitive in the world. There is no competition in the casino by the way –the house always has the edge. Except for a game ...

How do I move forward?

Like I said (and as confirmed by Dukascopy above, thanks bellieres), this looks more like a data feed malfunction and they would give you your money back if you were harmed by this. No need to freak out. Malfunctions happen with every bröker in my ...

Dukascopy

Epic stop hunt, no doubt about that. Kind of too obvious and too big though, and that's what's weird. Makes me think it's probably a price data malfunction instead. Contact them to confirm, and ask for a refund if you were harmed by this.

Dukascopy

You're right, and I have traded at Alpari. But like I said, I have also traded at well-regulated brokers such as Oanda, IB, and Dukascopy. Oh well. I can tell. I'm not out of good brökers though so it's no big deal. Good luck guys!

LMAX = revolution?!?

LMAX refused my account opening application today, saying it doesn't accept traders "from my region". Now I understand this probably has more to do with their regulation not LMAX itself, but it's still weird considering I had accounts at reputable ...

LMAX = revolution?!?

ah thanks. The title reads ".NET (C#) Client Library" on their website so I assumed they restricted it to C#.

LMAX = revolution?!?

Interesting bröker. As far as I can tell, they're definitely doing a good job and are worth considering. No Metatrader but instead a decent web platform AND a well made free API with FIX, Java and .NET? Wow. Isn't it great to see a bröker deciding ...

LMAX = revolution?!?

A Currenex account with Metatrader, $500 deposit, micro pips and an "STP" model? lol Nice try. This is no Currenex account. This is what we call marketing bullshit.

This is worrying...
