Is there any conflict of interest with the brokers?

    Hello;
    I know by experience and by reading my contracts with the brokers that if you are a small account in forex you play against the broker: if you win he looses.
    Is it also the case for the futures brokers? I mean do they have an intrest in making you loose? Are there any conflict of intrest?
    Thanks.

    I don't think so. But they may have an interest in making your money tight.
