heres the thing about trading forex they use the futures price to make a market for you they lure you in with small spread but the price you get is not the futures price I am watching live fx price versus futures and its 7 pips different

{quote} 909 is the magic number for me tomorrow, if market structure doens't radically change from now till euro rate news. worst case scenario is a breakout high right away cause no decent orders in sub 900. that means i have to flip the swithc and let the trade ride north.

As i said before if real price is 7 pips away brokers can use spikes to stop out retail traders or don't believe me and carry on

{quote} i have been watching E6. yes it's true that there is price difference of few pips..but it's all the same difference all the time. so relatively speaking, it makes no difference like profitfarmer said. same spikes, same action. i'm trading the same chart all the time. Unless the broker CONSISTENTLY gives false pricing based on overall market of other similar brokers (forex quote not equal to futures quote, so let's not make that comparison) {image} {image}

{quote} You've got the futures pricing a bit mixed up :-) Notice the futures quotes. These are all Euro futures contracts that expire @ different times. All futures prices have "premium" priced into them. The farther out in time the more premium. Every day the futures price will lose a small amount of this premium until expiration. On the last day before expiration the futures price will be the same as the forex price. {image}

In futures if price is 1.970 it's the same at all futures brokers also fx brokers use current contract month for pricing so all that other stuff is irrelevant

When you trade a futures contract, you're not trading any currency which is why there's no swap fees. A contract is just an agreement to deliver a product @ a date some time in the future. Trading it is just playing "hot-potato" with a piece of paper until expiration @ which the underlying product needs to be delivered. Margin is just needed to cover any potential loss. It's not there to purchase any actual currency.
