Yep, the consumer pays while everyone who is responsible for fiascos like sub-prime are out spending their multi-million pound bonuses on the luxuries of life.

Regards fx accounts I think we're slightly better protected in the UK but only up to 35k, but then I guess even that isn't guaranteed. That goes for all markets, not just forex. I don't know a lot about IB as I only had a small account there for a few months but from what I've read there is a way to transfer funds between an IB SiPC insured equities trading account and an FX trading account but how/if it works exactly I'm not sure. What a day! I'm just flat now from 8am this morning, that's 12 hours, so much for my 'short-term' strategy Catch you later, I'm off down the pub it's free curry night!
