Hey guys.

I just wanna thank everyone who posted, not just for helping me out but actually creating a serious thread where people can get real recommendations and testimony. Not just spam etc. It should be helpful for quite a few people.

I think I'm gunna go with GFT, they have everything I want and they're quite local to me. The 24/5 help is always appreciated and dealbook 360 seems a little more reliable than mt4.

Thanks guys also for the comments on leverage. I've actually read a lot about money management and am quite capable of handling the 100:1. I have money management techniques in place that protect my account against the extra risk.

100:1 was the leverage level taught to me by someone I know who has made millions from forex so I sort of developed my own technique using his money management and forex ideas as a base.

Again, thanks to everyone who contributed.

Cheers,
Scotty

Hi All, trust everyone is well?

I am using the FXCM demo account, does anyone know if they happen to have a 'mini' account, or how we can trade more than 10 micro lots at a time?

Plus, no one has mentioned eToro, is there something that I am missing about them??

Cheers

Have a good day...

Sorry this is off topic, I've always wondered, why do you need an IA. Wouldn't they be looking at you trades in real time.
Not sure what you mean by "Wouldn't they be looking at you trades in real time?" But, if you want just post your question over in the Dukascopy thread then you'll be on topic.

So after all this you decide to go with a market maker that runs a dealing desk and charges you to bring your funds back to Oz.

I can share my experience with Oanda. I am not trading a year with them yet, but I like what I see. Quick execution, low spreads, friendly staff.
If you are living in the States, however, I think you are out of luck, not unless they have changed their signup policy. The same thing with Alpari UK and other foreign brokers.

Heard some some good comments about them.

They are going to move to UK shortly. Do not know what impact that will be.
They (IBFX) have been talking about moving to the UK for close to a year now. It would be nice that when they do, they allowed hedging though.

If for any reason CFTC drops margin levels for US brokers this fall/winter, most brokers will move overseas. A lot of US brokers have already moved in anticipating more negative regulation yet to be introduced.
