Hey guys,
There's a couple of stocks I'm interested in but I don't want to open a seperate stock trading account. So I was wondering, do any reputable FX brokers allow leveraged trading in both stocks and forex using the same platform and the same account?
I'd be happy with a good link if this has already been answered before.
Many Thanks!

to my knowledge, MB and IB are forex ECN's AND equity ECN's, but equities have VERY different rules concerning margin than does forex, with forex being MUCH MORE lenient.
you will not get the same leverage from one class of instrument to the other, as far as I know, and to daytrade equities you require 25 thou in your account as a minimum !
