I think that we have only just seen the beginning of this story. In the next few weeks we will see the second scene. Then.......... what will remain will determine the future

..and I heard if you make more than $100k gains on Oanda you get kicked out of the door. So you cannot make your account grow to $10m until you can trade with IB.

The dirtiest of assholes are now trying to open prop firms. I got at least 15 messages today of people asking for how they can open a prop firm. All are established (dirty) business people. Cataclysm is almost here.
You shoud not make business with dirty or bad people. This is in your best interest if you do not need to hunt for every penny they give you for any advice. Better.

{quote} I think very soon TFT will not be here.
I assume you are thinking insolvency rather than cftc door knock?
I hope its not the case, coupled with what i lost with MFF that'll be the bulk of my funding up in smoke.

Well, in this case, the insolvency is the result of the CFTC doorknock anyway. The tiny firms may become insolvent on their own, but TFT was 3rd largest (by a lot). If they are insolvent, it is ONLY the indirect result of the CFTC action against MFF.

Oh shit, you're talking about few regulators coming down on TFT all at once. Without context I thought a few regulators from around the globe like EU, UK, etc. and just got a small heart attack...

Given that orderbook is heavily sell side, If you traded that 30 lots, you would lose at least in the short term. But yes, it is nice during session.

It is actually better than Interactive Brokers. But I cannot say with whom they operate. Will know more in a few months. Probably over some Prime Brokers.

I keep seeing IB mentioned, but what is so good about IB. Anyone please tell me the good points. Their customer service never seemed that good.

On another note, if anyone thinks the regulatory agencies are there regulating the industry, they are assigned to regulate you are in fantasy land. They are to regulate you the trader from harming your financial well-being. They know what best for you lol.

Like someone just posted at least you all still have Oanda & Forex. Com & last but not least IG. I've heard they are actually not too bad. Wouldn't know for sure.

Maybe that trader @ post #23949 will be able to reveal the secret liquidity provider & business can continue as usual. I've always loved a good secret.

In 2024 some big changes will be taking place for this prop business & it most likely will not be beneficial to the trader, but let's wait & see how it shakes out.

Of all the options above, interactive brokers are by far the best. Just not the cheapest. And yes these large companies generally have less than desired support
