on your optional future dd, it makes no sense not to offer pegged currencies (like dkk) or ruble, or everything in between. what's to lose if you're a dd? nothing! to gain? as the bbc likes to put it, mom and pop's hard-earned money i ...

i know what you say because i did it too in the past. what i tried to say was that you should factor the lack of discipline or sabotaging in your trading. like: because i happen to be tired, because i sporadically lack the discipline, etc. this is ...

now, if you started to see the light i hope you'll start see the darkness. i agree with what you say about edge and everything. but what you said about 50/50 coin flips is not true. and i'm not talking about trend-following systems or r/r systems. ...

it's not sabotaging, it's something flawed in your numbers if you allow a ~20% downswing to happen. your risk of ruin is too high if you trade this way. also you cannot quantify what discipline or sabotaging mean. my advice is to start smaller next ...

Oh, FXCM, i didn't forget my clinch with Jason. They were a bunch of morrons from the very beginning. They were agresively cornering their clients with every trick in the book. Then they found a monopoly they could play with in the US because of the ...

but you know something? i'm closing my account before the market closes today. i guess the rumors were true about the spikes. not only that fxcm was an onerous entity along its history, paying fines for cornering its clients, they also misinformed ...

jason, can you comment this paragraph:"In order to optimize its RPM, FXCM Inc (NYSE:FXCM) has announced that it will be returning the dealing desk model for clients with equity below $20,000"?

@ Jason, you keep saying that you trade with fxcm. that's strange! my brother works as an IT for morgan stanley and he has certain restrictions (i don't want to give any details). you get the opposite effect, it seems so, than fxcm being so ...

lol, you reacted like i've suggested you a bloomberg terminal :-) i know it's not free, but they have some free content which is still useful. i have a subscription with them and it's worth the money. p.s. briefly, if you go legal and trade as a ...

a) just because you're saying it? b) because of karma? c) because this is what a market maker would have done? if you're c, that's a chronic hyperventilation of twisted facts that cannot escape your system (you know, check the stem cells) of ...

jesus man, you're waiting for another 150 pip? you're such an amazing human being! that's it! p.s. you're still on my ignore list (i will reconsider it after you get the 150 pips or the 2 years in US, in whatever order you wish)

you miss the point, jason. 4xatom was searching (not so deep tough) for any proof that fxcm isn't ndd. and he discovered bloomberg :-)))) cmon, a bloomberg article from jan (and we're in march)!?

:-) and lecture that it's better to (trade with a market maker and) have higher transaction costs. that's genius, if you think about it! good luck, mitch! if fxcm doesn't get smashed into the pavement on friday (we know they have fewer accounts and ...
