{quote} Oanda can easily do that for you. Even handle much more. Just keep track of their spreads when news is coming. They have enough capital, they comply with all regulations anywhere in the world.
Oanda has it's own set of problems, I remember a couple of times the connection went blank, one time they disappear off the radar for more than an hour without issuing an explanation or an apology.

Another problem with them is that you can not hedge, not that I would do that "per se" but sometimes I might have a short with low leverage aiming for 3-400 pips and if you spot a nice setup on a lower time frame to go long using higher leverage and grab 20-30 pips you are SOL.
Why sell the bottoms when you can buy the tops...

{quote} You'll never see 100 pip spread on main currencies. I did see 160 pip spread on my favorite, Euro versus Turkish Lira, but what is a 160 pip spread if you get back 3150 pips in just 1 week? It has served me very well in the last 2 years and I've posted my profits many times on this forum.
You wanna bet? I saw a guy lose 20k from a so called 'prime' broker(PM if you want to know) because EU spread gapped 100 pips on a NFP release.
All posts are my personal opinion

Complete nonsense, just open another sub account and put some money in it and you can hedge all you want.
I have several fxtrade accounts and 1 MT4 account with Oanda and never have problems.
And I can hedge all I want.

{quote} I didnt want to get involved neither but do people actually know, prime banks such as JP,GS,Credit Suisse,UBS and such have actually wealth management departments where you can become a client with only as litle as 1Mil USD and have direct access to their liquidity and forex screen. Why would someone go to a forex broker with that kind of equity. Just another attention whore,troll whatever! Good morning man, Gator is back as well I guess. Things are going back to normal - I hope.

Thank you very much fellow friends for the answer, I will look into the Australian Brokers .

Sorry I don't need any attention, I'm Indonesian, and there's no regulated broker or Forex whatsoever in my country. Forex brokers here all is just scam.
That's why I want to know from other people experience, because I was asked to find out by my brothers.

Just for your information, a lot of rich people here in my country didn't even know they can trade Forex or Gold online. They Buy gold and foreign money by going directly to the money changer or jewellry store. What I mean by rich is people with net worth of 20 Million Dollar. And usually they are from farmers background( tobbaco, crude oil ),really sorry if my question offend anybody here. I'm just asking a simple question, and I think I have the answer now, will look and contact IC Markets.

Took half at pivot point and now putting SL at BE. Hoping for a nice deep thrust but that's just a bonus if it happens.

Morning,

Initially this looks like clearing before US data. If pair does not respect 1.1012/14 and drops/close through, it may drop quite deep and 900/950 is target but that is second alternative.

However, buying should start soon, really soon. Otherwise second option is true.

Take care, month end and weekly flows.
They think they are smarter than I am.

We are testing it now, took the position purely because of yesterday's London close mate. It closed @1.1025. I knew it would come back here this morning but dont want to take short positions since for me the not much meat on the bone left but you never know of course. I care about the week close as well as the month close alot. These are very crucial levels for medium terms I believe
