Watch retail traders on Forex Factory. Complaints are silly and false with reputable brokers. Show me even 1 instance where a trader was "robbed" because of a MM broker. Surely you can point me to 1 example?
- fxcm usa.. DO YOUR OWN SEARCH they were shut down becasue of front running not one but hundreds of clients were fleeced.. don;t you know? - Refco is another example - The main issue is potential of "Conflict of interest" which exists becasue of the nature of business s model. "Counterparty risk" is another issue In case of a exchange product giants like CME novates each trade that means they are the counter party .. when was the last time CME or NYSE or LSE went belly up? Sure if a large broker like Oanda can match each trade internally then they have no reason to take any risk.. but what if they can't ? Now, to dismiss this as if this additional risk "does not exists" is irresponsible specially when a newbee asks a question shall I trade OTC Fx or Futures or Stock!
