Scuse my ignorance but don't you have to pay for the faster payments (CHAPS?). I know that UK banks are supposed to be catching up with the rest of Europe for same day payments but if it's CHAPS you refer to then I can understand why IG wouldn't take the hit on the cost.

Only an idiot makes assumptions...well, let's see if we can hoist you by your own petard. It would appear you have assumed that margin requirements have changed without actually bothering to think for a couple of seconds. I have checked my a/c and DOW margins are still at 50. Their auto margin...

Not a prayer mate. You contracted with Worldspreads irrespective of the fact it was under the Vic Chandler brand. So its not VC walking away from you, its the fact that worldspreads tanked is the problem. You can lawyer up and chase Worldspreads but I think there are enough people doing that...

Sorry but that iphone app is a load of t**s. Have you seen the charts? Offensive.

Jason I understand your claims re NDD for FX. However how do you handle other instruments such as indices? Assume you have a dealing desk for them?

My simple understanding of this - and I could be missing some details - is: Daily cash - market shuts at 16.30 (or whenever the local exchange closes) so only runs during exchange hours and is based on the cash price without divs etc playing a part Future - price is derived from the underlying...

For what reason out of interest? Would be keen to know the circumstances.

OK so how does it work. I am trading £10 a point on FTSE on a one tick spread. If I make money on my trade what do I get? And what do I get if I lose money on my trade?

Why are you pumping some CFD cashback pyramid-type effort on the spread betting threads?
