    Looking for a SB broker that offers Indices futures on MT4

    Hi and thanks for taking the trouble to respond :) I did look at oanda, but until now I've been spreadbetting, which means no tax payable. It doesn't look like Oanda cover spreadbetting.

    Looking for a SB broker that offers Indices futures on MT4

    Don't use them if you're scalping. I had to switch from them as although, at the time, their website stated they welcomed scalping, it got to a point where my trades were taking over 20 seconds to be filled.

    Hey NasTrader I don't agree, and am not personally interested in entering into a competition. It's just that I know there are various other contributors to this board who use Level2, in some cases exclusively, to make a lot of money. I thought this board was all about stimulating debate. I...

    Scam Merchants - Lets get rid of them??

    Some really good points Gareth but it's also good to know somebody is prepared to step up to the mark sometimes. My biggest concern on watching the Youtube video was the possibility of Zenda leaving himeself open to prosecution for libel or slander. He's got to have some pretty good factual...

    Hi Paul As highlighted on the T&S, I only traded 100 shares - back down to that this week, still better than paper trading. Bid was .99 Ask was .00. Price started to drop just after I was filled. And you're right about the the direct access - all through TradeStation.........."Intelligent" Routing.

    Picture title says it all.......... When trades are going through T&S at 35.99, anyone have an idea why I would get filled on a market order at 35.96? I wouldn't mind if I was going long but it was a short.............

    You're right it's quiet. I think a few of the main contributors became a bit discouraged about the tone the thread was starting to take and decided to rest for a while. Shall we start posting again guys? I recently did Richard's Level2 course over the phone. Found it an excellent help to the...

    I only use their Home 2 Mb package, cheaper at about £34/month but certainly more than sufficient in terms of contention and very few hiccoughs.

    Yes and make sure you include Zen Internet when you use the comparison tool. Been using them for quite a while now. Certainly not the cheapest but look at their performance and customer satisfaction stats......... FWIW, I use a 2Mb link, using TradeStation as both platform and broker. No...
