{quote} Is it just an analysis terminal, or do you trade right off it too?
It depends, for me I use FXall and trade via my reuters terminal.

for bloomberg one can ues FXGO, their own ECN (very good btw) or use a clearing bank and trade on their feeds.

But yes one can trade on these platforms very easily.

{quote} Bloomberg last quote I got told was 2,000 per month, if its only a few trades, definitely worth going for that.
Yeah just want to make sure I pick the right one in bloomie vs reuters. I guess I can demo both but I don't really have time to mess around trying to learn both, rather just learn one and roll with it.

Hmm, well I was going to register for FXDD MT4 "xtreme" account. It offers 0-2 pip spreads on majors + a $6 standard lot round trip trade commission, which is not bad.

However, I just got a form that said a portion of the fees/commissions are paid to the trade agent/IB which may be a conflict of interest.

I am suspect now They going to be trading against my tiny account?

{quote} Ok, I have to get it I guess. Got a quote last week for $1600/month. Said they would do 3 months free so $1280/month is not terrible I guess. That about what you pay? Definitely worth it?
Id suggest to look at www.metastock.com
i think they have cheaper priced product which uses eikon as well
do some research on it cuz i cant guarantee

im registered with metastock's xenith for a tear and ironically i get TR Eikon with it
you should research it and ask the sales on that website if thats the case

if you're above 20k, preferably in the 50k region, trade on currenex etc, you can get 15 per mil ( I trade at 18 per mil but my monthly volume is only around 50mil US)

good prices, you see order books and very good liquidity. plus you trade vs. banks which is just cool

Well supposedly, but I call bullshit on all the ECN's trading with banks, banks literally only use FXall, Currenex, Hotspot, fxgo and then direct OTC.

So most ECN's aren't direct, they probably route through these. I wouldn't touch them personally.

China and other Asian countries are also currently ramping up their infrastructure investments. More infrastructure and construction would means more demands for Aussie raw materials.
The true fact is market doesn't care, risk mgt is important.

The overly repeated infrastructure play is what got China in this position of "low" growth in the first place.

I don't know the specifics yet (studying for my series 3/34 licenses), but I have read a lot of "brokerages," primarily the online types simply trade their own volume in house.

Mate, series 34 is a piece of piss, I haven't got it due to age, but I've done past papers etc and it is so easy, you'll be fine with that. Does help a lot too to have one if you're looking for a job.

Forcing relocation wont fix their problems. If rural farmers and fishers want to move into large cities they would have Im sure. They need to diversify their investment. 40 years of pure infrastructure ROI is fading. Seems like without easy credit, China's growth would remain rather limited.

Not only that, if you read the news, many Asian countries are also facing over-population problems, therefore they need to ramp up their infrastructure to cope with the demands too.

Of course, this is fundamentals, TA are also important in trading.
