    Can some 1 explain my why most FX trader use IB (idealpro)
    for trading??

    IB = Interactivebrokers
    C.S. = CapitalSpread

    Cuz seem to me for 100K with C.S. = 10$ the pips and the inital Margin is 400$

    for IB 100K = 10$ the pips the initial margin is 2 000$

    Am i missing something?

    2000 - 400 = 1 600$$ i can buy 3 other contract..:confused:

    One trade stopped out ? Two ? Five in a row ? How long would your account last.
