expect to open real account in a couple of weeks so...

downsides to it?

you a a bit right - Interbank Rates do have a specific price rule - they do not quote prices below one million order size - therefore it is not possible to do that with a typical online BROKER - as they mostly do have not more than 3 or 5 Bank-Connections - which mostly are no real Interbank Dealing Desks as well. Former days minimum 500'000 USD to open an account with - nowadays some do with 50'000 - but not less...


Moreover - a Dealing Desk is not a thing wich is operating against you...

Mostly they give very good advice and help - and you can learn a lot from / with them. They give you sometimes a phone call - and they do give you quite good hints sometimes...


It is an error to think - that they do have fun to operate against you... ! ! !

That is the diff. with an ecn. You can follow the spread real-time on their website homepage. The spread is many times close to zero when the market is at volume. Sunday evenings are not a good ref.
Being right is one, taking it from the table is two.

to stop trading at 18h00 GMT where there is no volume... (spread goes up, less lightly to enter a trade)

edit: i can follow their spread on MT4 too, right?

Spread is an 'eye catching thing' - that is not a reason to open an account because spread is low...

Interbank Spreads are mostly between 3 - 5 pip spread - but they never vary - even not when there is a war or a huge Intervention - like in 1998 - when Japan Inteventions where sweeping over the market floors...

and price action is much much much higher than with those MT4 Brokers - prices dont freezing - and you do not get impatient because they do give you no fresh / new prices updated for 30 seconds or more - and a stop is a stop - they will never argue for that - there will be no slippage and such ugly things...

that alpari opens now. 23h00 GMT.


so ECN is kind of "rougher" our "without the net".

just heard of the girl that scalped 1 pip 40 times a day. obviously only works on very, very tight spread.

Romans would chain the bull and bear with a very short chain so that they fight. We call it narrowing Bollinger Band or consolidstion before a break.

What commodity bubble you are talking about? 80$ OIL looks cheap

compare to $140. Other commodities are at lower band / just slightly up.

Nat Gas just few month ago was trading below $3. I won't take arguments

about GOLD cause it's not a commodity.. Add to that current Global

Warming BS world-wide hysteria.. Looks like we have to talk about Global

Freezing by now.. Green P - bunch of crackhead pigs.!
*L* about 20 years ago i read a warming report... it was kinda funny.. they said u.s. would see colder winters in u.s and stronger hurricanes.. *L* well tada... i dont give much respect to the guys who tell me the scores after the game is played. but those damn bookmakers you have to admit mostly make money. not always but the odds are with them..

id hate to tell my grand kids.. sorry i was wrong..

as for as natural gas.. well im one of the clowns pumping it and oil from under my own property.. natural gas supply is higher today then it has ever been.. you dont get it... u.s. fed raised the price of oil by killing the usd raising oil prices. 100 oil r 250 is based on supply and demand (without manipulation). economys are oil based around the world sure. but if they cant afford it they will find something else. the oil producers want to make just enough to avoid us from finding another source... economys are still too fragile for a huge spike.. it will kill world economys unless gradual..

lowest was still 1.4405 until now - so that guy could not have been stopped out until now ...

But he should be aware - that there will be lower levels to be expected soon today ...
