Same "advert" from both companies? I trade with fxcm, but have never traded with refco, although I have traded with Mann. Are they all 'related'?

Probably.

It's obvious that they share the same 'mailing company'

In which case why can't they give volume/sales etc when the main markets are open and trading. This would be better than nothing. They say the forex market is too big. X trillion traded daily. And an 'open' market.

In this day and age I find this totally unacceptable. It should be easy to gauge the volume/sales etc pouring into the London/usa/Asia markets when they are open. Yes, the 'closed' markets will still have orders going through but will not be so much of a 'driving force'

Am I wrong in believing that it needs a 'central bank' to give out this info.

It may be one, if not 'the' largest market traded today; but it still has it's roots firmly covered in the 'dark ages'

The nasdaq market is going through changes, but the information provided to the 'player' is still a hundred times better then most.





Dear John,

The US dollar is hovering at 9-year lows against the EURO! The US dollar has not been able to mount a significant rebound even with support from a FED RATE hike, strong new job numbers, and certainty regarding the outcome of US Presidential election. On the other hand, the EUR/USD rate faces strong technical resistance at 1.30. The EUR/USD appears ready to make a major move towards 1.40, or after failing to break through technical resistance could retrace back to 1.25. If you don't have a live currency trading account, you will not be able to trade the Euro's next big move.

Are they all 'related'?


hello O :D

As far as i know FXCM is a branch of Refco. FXCM also offer white label deals, i cant remember which one it was but when i dowloaded a demo platform a while back and it was exactly the same as the FXCM platform :eek: . It was a white label of a white label :LOL:

I guess the main the reason for lack of spot vols is because most of the brokers make their own market safe in the knowledge most of their clients will lose. Not that they would admit this to their clients for a second of course! ;)
