DislikedOh boy...this guy is the perfect personification of Maxwell "smart"! Unfortunatelly he is not lucky enough to have a agent 99 around to fix his lack of understanding before he posts it.
Let me ask you something Mr (cough) smart.
Do you really believe that the demise of a whole bunch of petty cash accounts will affect the american GDP this year?
Oh boy! This guy thinks that the unemployment rate, GDP, tax collection, etc will be really impacted by forex retailers, specially the under capitalized ones!
Listen my friend.....you...Ignored
DislikedI guess you got back from your all nighter with the CFTC. Duh. It would affect the unemployment rate if you got rid of all retail trading. Its pretty obvious. Shut down TD ameritrade, Optionxpress, Scottrade, GFT Forex, FX Solutions, IG Markets, Alpari US, Ikon Global Markets, FXCM, CITI FX branch, etc. There are tons of retail trading entities. You'd be taking away jobs from marketers, salesman, computer technicians, janitors, analysts, administrative workers, thousands of people would lose their jobs lol. Not to mention each broker is worth at...Ignored
DislikedI guess that so much profanity in your head really blocks any king of logical thinking..right "smart"?!
First of all, 90% of the brokers operating today will still be operating even when leverage goes to zero, in the near future. They are in a process of consolidating their clients right now, and that's good for them and for the trading industry in general. They will be smaller, more automated, productive and competitive. They do understand the meaning of "adapt or die".
The bucket shops will close and that's a good thing!

DislikedOk Mr "not smart" I think I'm better stop wasting my time with you. You are just about talking not having a productive discussion
Anyways...mark my words. This 10 to 1 may not materialize right now. They may settle at 25 to 1 or something around it, but the 1:1 leverage is coming, as bigger spreads, bigger commissions etc......... it is all coming!
Everything is following a trend and the forex market is not immune to it. For the next years things will be quite different, even the near past is still a lagging indicator. Position yourself...Ignored

DislikedHello Platypus, actually i think you are slightly pessimistic in your thinkings, the "trend" is going very nicely, everymonth there are many news in the retail-brokerage industry, and i mean new offers, new spreads, always better and better.
I don't think brokers will think now about make a bigger spread or bigger commissions etc.. because it's not how the free-market (in this case the brokerage market) work, nobody will let their clients trade with bigger spreads.
Relax, take it easy and don't worry soo much, there may be some us brokers that...Ignored
