    Trading Arcades have had their day

    Parky, Sorry didnt make myself clear, you are quite correct if you open an account with STA or the others you are contracting with them and the risk remains with you and STA as an example, what I was trying to get at was the fact that it would be cheaper to go through Fairvalue than deal direct...

    Trading Arcades have had their day

    Parky , Very simple for the same reason you need Schneider trading rather than going to MFglobal................. you will get a better deal with Fairvalue than going to Rosenthal directly the same way you´d get a better deal with STA than with Mfglobal and again you´d get a better brokering...
