I was fleeced by my broker and I have proof!

Just FYI, if you say in public they are "stealing", they could easily sue you for libel if they wanted, and probably win too. You might want to phrase that differently. They have all your contact information already. They probably wont, but why risk ...

Broker that triggers buy stop at bid price & fills at ask?

NZ has been home to many crooks in the FX space. I think they have tightened up a little in the past years tho. Not sure what exactly is the situation right now. I would recommend a UK based firm.

The rouble future is cash-settled in USD. Also you will have a hard time finding a retail broker who allowes taking delivery at all. Other than that, CME is not a bad choice for usd/rub.
