who told you will not make money after new regulation???? make sure you dont lose it in the process.
Telling you this from personal experience, have never used more than 1:2 leverage and I am doing just fine.

It is time now for US retail FX to mature and 1:10 leverage is not bad...you should not even be using 1:10 IMHFO.

they are gonna limit leverage to 10. which is not bad at all- I have not used more than 1:2. Keep all my money in fdic insured borker.

hey dude what borker offer you futures? me interested. not a US borker I assume, coz in general FOREX futures never took off as fx really is mainly a hedging business.

oops..

3639 is a good bear number from oct. it is a key number... 3622 is an all time important key number. we will either see 3718 or 3340 ish math says 3735+ for bulls.
and 3340 for bears.

You shouldn't assume you know how to trade better than the next man. Trust me, I make plenty of money off forex and sometimes I like to have higher leverage. Maybe I like mutliple positions open or I need margin for adjustments. I'm glad you're doing just fine, but since most of my trades last about ten seconds leverage is slightly more important.

sorry I did not mean to be rude. yes you are right- I was just assuming- but the fact that leverage would be reduced eventually as this new industry gets more regulated should not come as a surprise.

Yeah, I just opened an account with Interactive Brokers, so now I can trade futures again, plus I'll get way cheaper option commissions. Still have my account with Oanda though cause I'm not sure about IB forex spreads yet.

an mt4 question for ya...is there any way to change the pre-set lot sizes in the drop down volume list in the new order window? mine goes from 0.01-0.05 but then jumps to 1.00-8.00. I'd like to do away with the micro lots and have it start from 0.1-0.9 then 1.00-4.00 for example...

It's not all about how you trade and whether or not that works for you, we could care less. Sorry.

In reality, it is nice to have the option of 100:1 if you want it. The broker should be compelled to maintain sufficient reserves given client risk- isn't that the concern? We really do not need more government.. thanks but no thanks.

Exactly. I have an issue against regulations meant to "protect" me. If a person is careless enough to lose their account then so be it. They should realize what they are getting into.

It's funny that you would use that word addict. I have read many disclaimers on many brokers websites, and they all mention how risky, and the amount of risk affiliated with trading forex. I have yet to see one broker mention that it could be quite addictive, like the casinos do. Hmmmm!

None taken- for me leverage is only a concern if I have fears of maintaining large deposits at brokers. Remember what happened to Refco. Other than that, my trade method, and my trading goals are met with 1:2, or even 1:1 leverage.

Their main argument to enforce this rule is that lots of people get hoodwinked into believing overnight riches with a 1000 dollar margin that allows them to trade standard lots.

I am not for or against the regulation- it is just that I am un-affected by it.
