bit of help please people

Technically Fundamental · Jul 15, 2009, 8:41am

I want to demo trade equities but I need an account that includes has all of the costs/commissions i'll need for my calculations pref a dma one.

Anyone know of one please?

IG's CFD is balls. They wont let me look at my live charts and place demo trades now either. Plus they want money off of me for advanced(

?) live charts and now demo live charts show no data before Oct 08. If any other newbs are considering them I'd advise shopping around for someone who isn't so money hungry that they wont let you have a live and a demo account but that's just my opinion.

Plus their charting is a bit poo anyway. Too many random spikes from data feed problems that make it hard to see long term data.

I dont want CFD I want that ladder sh1t. You know anywhere?

That ladder stuff probably means level 2 where you see the bids and offers. Might struggle for a demo of that as it cost £1500+ pa for that.

Etrade give free l2 but as i said don't know if still do demo

futuresbetting.com are very good if you want a DMA proxy. I'd suggest you check them out.

He's said equities in the opening post but all this TT stuff and Ladders all sounds very futures.

Aaron if you want to trade indexes etc then you want a futures broker/SB

If you want to trade BArclays or vodafone etc then you want a CFD broker.
