Yeah but is it easy for us small guys to trade news with retail brokers such as FXCM and not get screwed?

Hay mate! First of all its nothing new :P Im pretty damn sure there's people out there making great returns on borrowed capital (hint: hedge funds),that is not what my question is all about:P And i am not talking about overall indices,I am taking about a specific strategy that picks the highest...

Hello guys and gals. I am currently trying to study an idea that came in my mind,more particularly,migrating the dogs of the dow strategy,to other indices around the globe. Is there anywhere I can view the composition of indices,any indices will do if you do not have a comprehensive list,so...

Also,another thing I could do,is take short positions on my long positions that are going down,positions of equal size,this way losses/gains pretty much equal out,that's what hedge funds are doing,isn't it? Id end up paying only a slight loss plus the financing rates.

Its not a single equity,its a diversified strategy. Have a look for yourself, Dogs of the Dow - High dividend yield Dow stocks - www.dogsofthedow.com .

Say... someone wanted to find out who bought a particular microcap stock at some specific date... how would someone go about doing that? A court issued subpoena? Thanks

Aha... I see. Any other brokers you guys suggest that accept international customers? Id feel more comfortable with some diversity :P

That includes stock listed on AIM?

Halp!! So here's my story,ive been reading up about CFDs on wikipedia,and I wonder,are CFDs available for stocks of companies with very small market caps on average? If so,whats the average leverage I can get? Thanks

Hello! Ive been looking around for a non US based broker,such as Internaxx,based in LU,but I seriously do not like their fees. Any suggestions and experiences? Thanks

Haii guys! Newbie here to the forum :D I have the following problem/situation. I am based in europe (residency) and I own and operate an IBC,basically a shell corporation with around 100k euros available to invest in US/European equities. My question is this,would any broker accept a direct...
