Hi Everybody, I have decided to ask the moderators to close down this thread. it has got too ridiculous for words. There is just too much abuse and I really have better things to do. I am always willing to answer your questions on CMC Markets so if you have any questions you can email me at...

hi pboyles, I am here but I haven't found a thread lately worth responding to. I have been thinking about closing the thread down because I want it to be balanced and constructive not a forum for ranting. I am not used to forums, I came on here with good intentions but to be honest I have...

hi peto, Many thanks for taking the time to post your experience here. Please feel free to post your views here good or bad on the system. regards Peter

hi tonmac, we will introduce a wider trading screen so you can save charts to watch lists so you can flip from one chart to another that will occupy the whole screen. This release is imminent. tks pc

hi Ross, Thats entirely the point. this industry is changing and I want to lead that change. will get very exciting in the future. cheers pc

Hi Mr Soros , I spoke to the support team. Apparently, technically we have built the software (so far) for you not to be able to have sub accounts. It is on the list but it wont be this calendar year. However, there is a way around the situation. You can open another account but you will need...

Hi Jimmy, The forum is there for you to try and get out of it what you can. Unfortunately some posters just want to use it to have a pop at me and the industry and CMC Markets. But if used properly then you can learn a lot about the industry. The forum can be what you make it. I appreciate...

hi scose, well I dont know who you are so if you ping me a private email I will pass on your details not to contact you. I am pleased they are pushing a bit though, shows they are working hard. cheers pc

hi scose, You are joking I presume. It has cost me $100million to develop our platform. sure there are some off the shelf packages but they don't do spread betting, cfds and forex all combined and they don't have the functionality we need. we also own all the source code and have done on...

hi Mr Soros, Don't know to be honest. I will find out and get back to you tks pc

hi scose, I wished it was that easy but it is not. You need massive investment in systems and technology and real time execution and hedging and pricing. Don't forget at the end of the day it is about offering clients a great service with institutional spreads on non institutional amounts. To...

hi scose, we make money from aggregated positions, by collecting net client spreads (where possible), matching client flows and from positional flows, resting orders and by locking in profits and minimising losses. It aint rocket science, well not to me anyway, being ex forex trader. It is a...

hi Jimmy, I meant that for this firm, don't know about others, there is no conflict whether you buy or sell whether you are winner or loser. Our execution engine is configured to quote blindly the market price every time and we automate execution. Like I said in my thread, we want your flows...

hi jimmy I do not agree, I suppose it also depends on what products you are trading. pc

Hi Jimmy, Have a feeling this will be a long answer so here goes. Firstly, if you look at the flows of a spread bet company the major flows of trades are in non marketable amounts, if somebody does a £1 pp on the UK 100 then we cannot hedge that even if we wanted to so we have no choice. we...
