And that's the rub here. STP still gives room to the brokerage firms to mark up the spread and not rely on the success of traders and just take commissions. When BT promotes the full ECN model, then I will listen to what they have to say. It is highly questionable when someone promotes you starting a brokerage firm using their technology no less. Right? They all make money, including the often sleazy IBs. Note: Dukascopy lowered the retail minimal deposit requirement and they also lowered their commission rate. Dukascopy is now the only brokerage firm worth considering in my opinion for not only safety but for integrity. And I looked at that always retarded forex world ea championship or whatever sponsored by FXCM and BT. The winner is a joke in my view. 145%? And that deserved a $100,000 prize? Started with $1000 deposit and it became $1450 in two months. I hope all of us can make $450 in just one or two trades in one 8 hour sitting. Geez. Two months?

The Black Swan logic. What you don’t know is far more relevant that what you do know. I love this post. The Black Swan logic. What you don’t know is far more relevant that what you do know.
