    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    Having looked into it further RCG are fine, it's just a huge FCM and so is bound to attract some attention. Most cases against it were old and dismissed anyway. So I'm going with them because they've offered me the best rates and service.

    Newbie Questions

    I've tried a demo of AT and Ninja. I found AT very good and Ninja okay. I keep hearing people saying Ninja with a Zenfire feed is the fastest and best for scalping. So you find AT the best platform and Transact best data feed? Also, do limit orders get filled faster or slower depending on...

    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    What do you think? Have you searched for RCG on the NFA site? It doesn't show a pretty picture does it?. I'm really disappointed because I could potentially have everything I want through RCG, so part of me thinks I should just ignore the NFA website. However, what's the point of people being...

    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    Xeno, have you looked at Amp Futures as well? Seem to be very similar to Mirus, but even cheaper. What do you think? Also, what do you think of RCG? cheers

    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    Hi, On the contary, I'm not at all impolite. I just raised a few problems about IB a while ago (problems I had never seen with any other broker, ever) and IB customers started being rude and aggressive. Obviously they cannot take constructive critisism. They started shouting abuse at me and...

    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    Hi Xeno, Like you guys (based in UK) I have done some thorough research into this. Personally, I would avoid Interactive Brokers like the plague. A lot of IB customers get very touchy when their broker is talked about negatively (perhaps because deep down they know the faults all too well), and...

    Reasons not to use Mirus Futures, Rosenthal Collins Group

    I trade ftse future and my current UK broker charges £8 round turn. For the S&P emini $12. I am not putting up with this now. Seriously I don't know how they do any business. Amp Futures (US) have offered some great rates, so they have climbed up my shortlist.

    nine, any further messages I receive from you will automatically be deleted without being read nob-rot, so don't waste your time replying. Later loser. And nine, your obvious losing ways and trades do not give you the excuse to take out your anger on other people. That's the last thing I have...

    Nine, you claimed that I want "hand-holding" and that I did not have the "intelligence to be with IB." I simply said that you were trolling me. Therefore, I think you are the one trying to insult me for no reason. You then went on to say "I really do not want people of your level with my broker...

    Sorry Peto, but hand holding is not what I'm after and you will not be aware of my specific questions to IB. Therefore, you are not in the position to say my question has been answered.

    AMP-futures

    This is the dilema I'm having as I live in the UK. All the best commissions are to be found in US. I have a shortlist of the usuals: Tradestion, Infinity, Mirus, (er AMP), & Velocity. Not sure which one to go for though. The commissions charged by FSA firms based in UK are laughable, I mean...

    Best Thread Interactive Brokers

    no no no IB, they've only gone and done it again. After positive posts by IB fans I thought I'd give them another try, so I emailed them a specific question. What do I get in return? A general/faceless reply of approx 500 words which had been copied and pasted from their website, which simply...

    If you are trading in Bobl isn't it necessary for them to convert your USDs into Euros and than back to USDs when you close the position?
