iOCBCfx Pro: Commission charges: 1 pip per 100,000 per side So you pay 10 pips per million? Thats ridiculous.

Safest broker to trade a million dollars with

You need to sum up the USD value of all your transactions (buy and sell). Then you will arrive at ~USD 80K which is 0.08 million. That is all that is shown in your images. There is no interest being charged/credited.

Rollover and commissions

I'm using SierraCharts with their free fxcm data feed and execute manually with the lmax web-platform. Works for me and its just like $25/month.

LMAX

Its a matter of fact that the average retail trader is rather bad at trading. They dont even need any tricks or unethical behaviour. If clients only push the buy/sell buttons often enough, inevitably most of the cash will end up in their pockets ...

OANDA Down?

Mifid is a directive from the EU commission that sets minimum standards that all EU member states have to implement into national law. Implementation varies from country to country. Mifid itself is not an authority, it is a european law. Try ...

Is MIFID a good regulator?

They are certainly not going out of business. Its just a collosal fk up that will cost them a lot of reputation and money.

OANDA Down?

It hurts everytime i read it..

FXCM Discussion

No.. i meant the order entry web platform itself - i dont use the IT charts. As far as i know, the charts are managed by IT-Finance and not by lmax themself.

LMAX

Looks like a IT-Finance problem then, or some sort of connectivity issue. Didn't notice anthing strange on the web-platform.

LMAX

Thats a nice widget. I wish they would implement this functionality in the web platform. Its kind of annoying when you want to trade more size than is displayed top of the book.

LMAX

Yes - i think Oanda does use some sort of futures strip, and not only the frontmonth contract for their prices. Also, if you hold commodity CFDs for a longer period, you will notice that the difference to the futures price is in the carry you ...

Differences in Oanda natural gas prices?

And whats the charge the creditcard company takes? The cheapest way is a SEPA bankwire. I pay zero bank fees and no broker fees for deposits/withdrawls.

OANDA Discussion

Thanks for the info on trailing stops, i didnt know about this one. Not sure why lmax doesn't send out these update to clients..

LMAX

Sounds like FXO is recommending lmax or the Cme then

List of all forex liquidity providers?

60% drawdown? The risk-adjusted return (and that is what counts) is not really great at all.

London Trader - Copy my trades for free

athamarian: im with lmax directly - the web platform works flawlessy for me. Not sure about MT4 - i just read that they don't use the PrimeXM bridge anymore but have their own mt4 servers now. But i have never used it. If you want an IB, check out ...

Armada Markets

Interest rates for commodities on oanda are all over the place, and they keep changing a lot. It has to do with the difference between the oanda spot price and the price of the futures contracts, on which oanda bases their cfd pricing. I dont think ...

$10 per million would be ~0.27 pips in EUR/USD right now. Still very cheap.

Boston Prime - best broker for Scalpers?

Execution is the same on all instruments on lmax - price/time priority order matching like on an exchange. If you like the liquidity/spreads you see you can trade it. Personally i only trade the major fx pairs.

LMAX

XAG/USD and XAU/USD as well as fx is very good, don't bother with index cfds tho. There is only a single liquidity provider for those. They maybe ok for medium to longterm trades where transaction costs dont matter as much, but not for shortterm ...
