    Hi guys,

    I'm new to CFD trading. Does anyone know CFD market making using algorithmic trading technology?

    Going to join a CFD market making firm in Singapore.
    1)How profitable is this business?
    2)Will it be a good idea to use algo trading in market making business?
    3)is there any disadvantage using Market Making, comparing with DMA? (especially consider using algorithmic trading technology)

    I used to do algo trading for futures position trading, trend following, arb.. but not CFD market making.

    Thank you for your inputs in advance!

    :)

    cfd is in the same class as retail forex, a field where the bucketshops scam the noobs.
