there are many big trader doesnt use Interactive brokers as well, and if youre using them, who is their liquidity provider?

i dont think fx pair in Interactive Broker is exchange traded dude.. no such thing, if you want to talk about futures but..

there are proprietary firm located in dubai, kazakhstan, panama, spain, Luxembourg or many other country that trading millions of dollar in spot fx. some firm gets the feed directly from bank and create their own trading platform via API protocol, they buy or sell directly with major bank in the world(biggest pool). so who is concern about fund protection? its all up to the firm itself & thats real spot fx market. actually this is more concern about who is their liquidity provider and willing to take how much volume either from 1st tier or 2nd tier level pricing. there are other broker company specialize in spot fx, and they requires client to have minimum amount of trade per month, experience and proper amount of capital as well.

i'm also looking for a broker but after reading this about interbank fx....

since its not taxable, shud we declare the profits? or just hide it aside.. lol

Why would you want to declare non-taxable income to the LHDN? If you look at the records, the money made in Forex appears as a series of International bank transfers between you and your broker. It does not indicate income and you do not get taxed for money transfers.

I want to open a mini with around $3,000, but first I want to try the demo a while to see which platform has better charting.. are the demo in IBFX real time and does it have an expiry date?

Most pairs like GU and EU gained last week. I believe some of us are looking for a retracement but just not too sure when. Also, stocks have been rallying way past fundamentals. The USD as a safe haven looks to be slowly losing its status while JPY reinforces its position.
Argh.. uncertainties

I see mphpopular has started to trade the non major currencies lately 

On a side note, a big gratitude to the contributors of this subforum. I was a humble noob a few months ago not knowing much. Maybe it's luck, but I got about 1000 pips from mid August till now. But before that had to trial and error for a while. No EA.

Here's to a good week for everyone

anyone know a software for window mobile that can fetch forex news such as from forex factory?
