I don't trust OTC ( non exchange traded) products like Spreadbet because you are playing against the house So what is other alternative to mimic SPOT index!

Is it possible to trade a spread ( synthetic I suppose) between CASH and FUTRE For example S&P 500 cash and Emini or Big S&P 500 Future How would you take a position in the CASH/SPOT of the Index? The answer can't be ETF , SPY because being an ETF it is a different animal not actual Index as...

Are you trying to arb between 1 Big S&P 500 against 5 x E mini S&P 500 I am exploring the same using high end spreaders like CQG, Not knowing what exactly your aim is it is difficult to explore this further! Another idea may be using E mini Dow Jones futures as all DJ stocks are part of S&P...

WHY bother with any OTC product at all! Only Exchange Traded ... I still wonder why does CME,NYSE, Eu exchanges have not come up with single FX traded spot market That way it would be a true exchange

Which vantage are you referring to? I mean in which country?

For Non UK traders I can't see any advantage? Reasoning for 35K min and no seg account does not make sense to me + added risk of not directly trading on actual market! If one can trade on actual market with lot less than 35 K why take the additional risks!

When I opened with Sonray I was not aware in depth of the MM/ STP issue Now after loosing money I am wiser But I still won;t consider a broker without proper regulation and by proper I mean with some govt backed Insurance like SIPC or NGF or FSA Sonray had public liability insurance but that...

You are regulated in Cyprus! What sort of client money safety apply? f broker goes out of business I doubt Cyprus Govt offers any Insurance!

NZ may have a good reputation as a clean and green country but when it comes to Financial regulations to protect Client fund IT is nothing like SIPC in USA or FSA in Uk Have a read To clarify the role of Financial Services Complaints Limited (“FSCL”), FSCL is the operator of an independent...

Client money safety is very important aspect to me even if the money involved is small... It seems it is not important for you guys so lets agree to disagree Recently in Australia ( which has withstood GFC in much better way and has robust banks) OTC FX broker went bust taking 47 Million with...

be so kind and look at "financial underlay " of one strong competitor called finfx (well...not regulated but has integral as liq. provider) If not regulated why bother?
