Wow, 250K fine, that seems high for one count. Although it seems they dismissed one of the charges: "The hearing panel determined that NFA did not prove the failure to supervise charge; therefore, Count II was dismissed with prejudice." So, they say ...

Some of the investment banks run through some of the retail firms, some offer their own products. DB seems to use FXCM, another big bank uses Oanda. Some of the others have their own limited offerings to get their foot in the door with high-value ...

Swiss banks are insured to roughly $30,000. I guess that's fine for most individual traders, although I'm not familiar with Swiss banking laws to know what happens above that amount. The bit on Swiss banking laws that was posted (the English link) ...

It's hard to say based on a quick reading how "safe" they are compared to US Brokers. They say that they must register like a bank, but then the financial requirements seem to be similar to NFA Net Cap requirements. My guess is that its about on par ...

Why is Florida a red alert? That makes no sense whatsoever, basing it on the state. Esp. since based on net cap, they appear to be one of the big 5 or 6 in this market, with 35 million. That makes them "bigger" than Interbank or FX Sol... although ...

What a copout! Your logic is "If you don't agree with me, then you must be a corporate rat." Never mind that they could just NOT AGREE WITH YOU. I fail to see how your solution is "better", when the implication of the article that you mentioned is ...
