{quote} Not really, but there doesn't seem to be too many options out there after LCG shut their facking PoP offering. You're not going to go with FxPro PoP and trade on MT4 right? They offer any 3rd party software eg CX, HS, 360T, FlexTrade, Integral and you trade through that. That's all. For another one which is slightly , well actually significantly smaller, you can trade on multiple platforms and settle on one PB account with the broker. That one is slightly more interesting and slightly different, but their small size does cause some issues...
0.1 pip on what size of order? 15$ on what volume? 360t is shit, I know it very well.

{quote} Probs changed, I'll dig. But irrelevant not a decision maker. JPM is very good for credit: My friend who's head of Macro for a 13 Billion dollar fund got a 20 second call "No credit, liquidating everything now" then 20 minutes later Merrill went down and sold it to BofA, so obviously Lehman failed too.
Ha-ha, may be, Citi already bought everything and EBS also.

All these venues are very easy to tune, I mean mark up, that's why they're now very in trend of broker's offers.

{quote} Hence I am looking for a PoP, all my accounts are six digit,
Probably ABN-AMRO is a good choice these days as a (prime of) prime-broker; 1.5M collateral and I believe they dont require any AUM.

FXCM also started up PoP; not sure if they will continue to build it out after the CHF debacle. Maybe Saxo Prime isn't a bad option either.

And if you want to use 10M clip without slippage, just use Currenex Big; its OAN (min size is 2m)

{quote} I'm not using broker, work through bank on institutional platforms. But looking for more competitive PoP. was thinking about Velocity 2.0 but with new margin 4% will refuse them.

and for these they call you once you're at 103% NOP and give you a margin call... no point

Try talking to FIXI, they have impressed me, I find them ok... They are quite big, worth quite a lot according to company records.
