Surprise? Really ?

Yes, there are indeed legitimate brokers, people just need to move away from these mass marketed abattoirs and find a local broker you can form a relationship with who is true ECN and can prove to you their LPs and order pathways. Don't try to be ...

Not so, one article is Morgan Stanley's outlook, the other is from UOB. Efx news is just reporting their respective opinions and not taking a stance either way. That's the thing with markets, everyone has an opinion. Time will tell who was reading ...

Yep, that's the best way, let the market tell you what it's doing. Otherwise, believe none of what you hear and half of what you see. Stick to your trade parameters, that's the only thing you can trust.

Not necessarily, these aren't raw figures, they are seasonally adjusted and "tuned" a number of ways. That's why decisions shouldn't be based on them. As others have mentioned , the participation rate comments are key here. Interpret them as you ...

Australia reports it's unemployment "seasonally adjusted". This is a dated system that doesn't really have much relevance nowadays. Four times in the last twelve months they have looked back at the figure ( especially a couple that were real ...

What to keep in mind here is tomorrows CPI number. This is released quarterly and the RBA has been making its moves at the meeting following these announcements. The consensus is around 0.8- 0.9 with no surprises expected, so the board already has ...

Leverage not the issue here, people not knowing how leverage works is the problem. There was nothing devious or illegal in these happenings with those brokers in the spotlight ( although I suspect the investigations being undertaken as a result is ...

traderathome....really? You believe all that. More taxes, higher regulation and less opportunity, sounds great. What happened to the free market, I thought you were here as a trader. I'm sure there are other sites where conspiracy theorists can vent ...

Absolute claptrap, Central banks have been and are doing this all the time ( obvious example right now are Russia and China but there has been many more)just maybe not this publicly, although that can probably be put down to the small world in which ...

Sometimes the most prudent trade is to wait, beware. It is harder to sit and watch but you can't make things happen. Be very sure of your trades this week.

Welcome to the world of markets and business, people. Surely nobody is shocked or surprised , there will be more acquisitions coming up too. This one may or may not happen, there will be a bit of a shuffle go on and then we continue. In real terms ...

I wouldn't bother speaking to FCS or any other regulator at this stage. They are not able to give you any direct advice and ultimately they can not be held accountable for anything that happens. As I said earlier, retail brokers will have any number ...

Alpari is not alone in this. Many brokers suffered losses for the same reasons, some have already closed the doors. Others will declare the loss, be able to carry it and move on. Groups like Citi had large exposures but are able to absorb and as a ...

From my understanding there will be no compensation applicable to open trades. "Unrealised" is still at risk from all movements at the market. As you may have some profits unrealised that you lost there will also be unrealised losses that were wiped ...

Depending on what trades were open in accounts some brokers would have made money. Two sides to every trade. I believe Gain/Forex.com, AXA and a few other retail brokers ended up in profit. The retail focused brokers are always going to be the ones ...

Unfortunately people, this is not going to resolve itself rapidly. There will be a number of announcements in the coming days I would think and appointment of managers/administrators. The process of analysing where they are at will take some time. I ...

The trades were not the brokers accounts, they are clients trades being actioned by the broker, because of the sheer volume and speed of trades open and taking place extreme slippage occurred. If it was the brokers own trades it would be an entirely ...

They will be pursued by administrators now, although depending on terms of some of the accounts they won't bother with them all. The broker will accept the risk for some of the smaller accounts.

There are two side to every trade, I would suggest that the big winners would be larger funds and institutions that were holding hedged positions.
