Iwould consider trying out TS if only TS would offer EURO based accts. (I think I speak for more Europeans who don't want to have the EURO/USD rsk) Will you offer this in the NEAR future ?
Wow. That is very comptetive Micheal. I used your firm when you were expensive. I find in life, you get what you pay for.
Do you think the new commission structure will get TRAD back up to $13 from $7. Too bad CRUZ brothers could not short against the box!
