Hi Bundrider /alokp1, I've read this thread with much interest, especially as I've been considering moving out to Dubai on a permanent basis and continuing trading.
I've been trading now for 13 years, a combo of Spot Fx, Eurex, CBOT, CME and like many interested traders am waiting the open of faster connectios via a local hub and the opening of trading houses in Dubai.
As mentioned, i believe both saxon and schneiders are consodering dubai, and having worked for both, i can say both are excellent operations.
I would appreciate if you kept me informed of any further developments and kept in mind my interest for any furture plans.
