DislikedThat may be the case, but there have already been banking licenses issued to former fx brokers, the question remains why not to Dukascopy.
Above and beyond the formal and financial requirements there are additional requirements for a bank, for example that its directors must be "fit and proper". Maybe thats the problem here?Ignored
DislikedNot really, only three brokerage applied for licences. ACM, Dukas and MIG. So far only MIG has been granted said licence. I believe two of the three primarys have been asked to step down from ACM and Dukas might just be is just waiting on FINMA.
Don't know for sure because Dukas isn't talking.
We'll see

DislikedHI Guys.
Thinking of utilising Dukas.
What sort of slippage are you getting on stop entries and stop losses on average with their new mini/microlot sizes ?

DislikedI just got information from an internal source that DukasCopy have been accepted as a bank and thus been granted a banking license with 100,000 CHF insurances on deposits!! My source further says that this is not yet public info but it's starting to spread.
Well, let's wait to confirm if he is correct.Ignored
DislikedAm I correct in thinking that it requires £1000 equity to keep a 0.1 lot GBPUSD position open at dukascopy with 100:1 leverage or is the margin requirement only £100? I have £1k set aside for tradingIgnored
DislikedLooking at that margin calculation...it is for 0.1 lot in which 1 lot is 1 million. Therefore Dk's 0.1 lot is 1 standard lot at any other broker.
So it takes 1000 to margin 0.1 DK lot (which is 100,000) but only 100 to margin 0.1 Standard lot (which would be 10,000).
this is in response to John D response on sebastionay's margin question.
p.s I just wish we had standard nomenclature among the brokers.
A standard lot at DK is 1,000,000 not 100,000.Ignored
