I recently have started clearing through AMP GLOBAL CLEARING and I spread trade. I suffered a $1300 AUD loss one day because my account was restricting me with the size I could place (not through lack of funds) so it made me only able to enter one side of the spread and then I couldn't get flat...

Does anyone know of a broker for SFE, I am looking to trade the 3 and 10 year Australian bonds. I feel like I have exhausted the list of brokers. I found some which need 25,000 USD + account balance or charge ridiculous comissions. I have £7500 to deposit and I am a high frequency trader. Any...

lol

I am not sure with 9 months experience in spreads and my own limited experience in outrights which I was able to do only because the firm gave me freedom in my trading. I am not sure this will quantify me being able to just trade outright profitably so quickly? It's a tough market right.. a lot...

Yes but I just told you what size I traded, those where just my limits, I would have been pulled over if I was outright 80 lots, or even 80 by 100 in the TED spread. I had up to 48 euribor with a hedge as my max.

Whilst I was trading I was doing exactly that.. I just said. But now I am not trading looking for a better way back in and I am not exactly going to go straight into something I might not profit with, the idea is to carry on trading outright with small size more and more (whilst spreading to...

about 80 euribor, 120 schatz then 30 bobl and 10 bund. I traded either 8 euribor vs 10 schatz or 12 euribor vs 15 schatz, averaging up to 3 times. Also 8 schatz, 6 bobl and 2 bund, averaging 3 times.

I never touched boxes because of the same reasons.. but I was told outrights are really tough and tbh i kept record of outright trades as I did them, the schatz was profitable but was negative on the bund, but traded it alot less than the schatz. But I wouldn't feel comfortable trading the...

Basicially I can't get a loan any less than 25% APR so I am really stuck, I most likely can get a loan through my mum which will cover living exspenses. I am still looking at firms who back you and talking with a potential backer. I am wondering if I get backing can I trade through one of...

I am sure others can answer better than me, but from what I gather, up to 200:1 leverage. You don't have software and comissions to pay. You can open an account with as little as $500 I think.. so it's quick and easy to get into. I am pretty sure you can trade on ladders with direct market...

Hey again Squall, Prop houses offer easy entry into the markets when you have no capital, no losses to cover yourself etc. Desk fees and comissions seem to be larger than doing it yourself through a broker but you get more support and backing. German bonds are very liquid, which is good for...

Oh my area sucks for internet... I didn't realise I could only get up to 3.5mb tho.. that's way too little to trade Bund Bobl Schatz right?

I earnt very little after all costs, but like I said I paid 17,000 euros in costs over 9 months. If I trade something like 10,000 lots or more the platform will be free and I will only be paying comissions and living with family. Real work bores me and I think it will take a few years at least...

Lol Kimo I think you missed the point of my post.. it's somewhat detailed for a reason. And anyway "let it go" is pretty terrible advice considering I was profiting whilst covering my ~£3000 costs a month and have put a lot of effort into switching from poker to trading. I quit the prop house...
