What about trade rejections or re-quotes on the US30? Do they have fractions (0.50) of a point? How is the execution speed, it was not good a couple of years ago, this might not be the case today.Intertraderdirect has a 1 point spread on US30 (day session) and has ECN/STP processing for spreadbetting. Seem pretty good so far and MT4 as well
Ok, no fractions which is good, thanks a lot.I have an MT4 demo at the moment. Seems good so far. No 0.5 fractions. I received an email yesterday telling me they were not affected by last weeks turmoil and it's business as usual as they do straight through processing
I did check out the MT4 demo at Intertraderdirect, you said they have no fraction of a point trading the US30 (US session), but what I can se they use 0.5 fraction of a point, actually 2 points ticks which is not so good as it first seems to be.I have an MT4 demo at the moment.

Thank you, it is ok, in fact my english was not correct in my last post, it should be 2 ticks at times in a point. The only MT4 that I have found that uses 1 point on the Dow without fractions is ETX. ActivTrades have on their MT5 platform variabel spread that follows the YM future (mostly 2 point spread without fractions) which is quite good as well, if not even better than ETX. I trade with both companies.Apologies. You are correct. I have been distracted this week and not even looked at a chart.
I will test them out this coming week.

I was looking at IronFx. Seems ok but they are Cyprus/Greece based. If the socialists get into Greece today as looks likely what would happen if they left the euro ?
Yes correct, but not many SB around that isn't a market maker.I've traded YM through a US futures DMA broker and the spread is 1 or 2 ticks.
ES has a tight 1 tick spread through futures DMA brokers but usually has a 4 tick spread with brokers in the UK and Europe (US500).
I believe ETX is a dealing desk broker which makes me want to avoid them. I usually trade US30/YM with a 30-35 tick stop so 2 tick spread may not be too damaging.
