    Oanda

    Remember the little gotcha's like not being able to place a Stop Loss/Limit order within 5 pips of the market on the majors. More on the exotics.

    Oanda

    While it's 50:1 to open a postion, the maintenance margin is 100:1. This has been discussed a few times on the Oanda forum

    micro brokers

    I can think of a few good reasons. Granular risk management, specific strats such as grid trading, carry baskets etc. And demo vs real trading...no matter how realistic the demo is, trading with "real" money, no matter how little, brings emotions into the equation that demo's don't.

    Interest earned on FX Margin position

    With a vanilla C&C and/or variations using griding ets you have the potential of earning a few 100% a year on your account with very balanced risk and with very little baby sitting. I check my position once a week. Others more so, some less. Either way, it's a good little earner. Read up on...

    Forex data - general or specific?

    I ditched Esignal for FX as the GTIS spiky data is useless for intraday. They do have Hotspot FX as a contributor now, so I've requested that they make that source ( and perhaps COes & FXCM) available as separate feeds. They said they'lll look into it. So maybe sometimes next century.... In...

    Trading Systems Forex - Simpler the better-

    I've thought a bit about putting at least some of the rules into code ( Amibroker) to see if they at least make a straight X profitable. Just haven't got around to it as of yet. Some of the rules that could be coded are: Time of day - limit trades to Eur/NY sessions. Don't buy or sell if entry...

    Trading Systems Forex - Simpler the better-

    lol....my apologies, I didn't mean to imply that. But IMO I don't honestly think it's all that complicated, unless just given a cursory glance. Price rejection, time of day, S/ R levels are really all it's saying. The doco was mostly cut 'n paste straight from chat, thus not the tidiest of...

    Trading Systems Forex - Simpler the better-

    Note I said "strategy", which in my mind implies a plan of action, hence the X, while just a simple signal is qualified by a complementary strategy . To trade the X blindly would lead to ruin. As for her "rules" being complicated, I agree they probably appear so to the novice, but for anyone...

    Just drop into MT chat sometime, and take note of Bunnygirls profitable strategy based on a simple WMA 5/20 X. And unlike others, her calls are before the fact....
