Hello, I am based in the UK and am looking for a good broker with low commisions who will provide me with the facility to open up a Pound Sterling account. The reason for this is that I do not want the exchange rate risk associated with maintaining a USD account. Does anyone have any recommendations? Also maybe you could advise me on a realistic starting deposit? I was thinking of somewhere between £10,000 - £20,000. Would that be sufficient to day trade the ES. Also could someone give me an idea of what good commisions would be so I know for my own seraches. Thanks MissTick
Velocity Futures, Deep Discount Trading and Vision Financial Markets are 3 that I know which allow Sterling accounts. Velocity and DDT publish full fee schedules on their websites.
