That's the core of the question. I was thinking that one can profit best/highest by trading such big money, but you say there are more profitable...
How would you trade an account of size say $10 billion? As we all know trading big money and making comparable profits like small money is not...
Can I get any problems if I as a non-pro active retail spit into the soup of the MM by putting slightly better prices into the orderbook? :)

Hi, as we all know, foreigners can open a broker account in the US. And that is a good thing I find, thx US. Is it possible to also open a normal...
