    DO NOT USE FXCM OR DB!!!

    The other posters are right, you really shouldn't do IBFX either.

  7. Quote from virtualmoney:

    If you don't know what to suggest, just keep quiet and nobody would know you don't know.

    He was quite correct. You come across as a duffer.

    seriously, I need suggestions because I want to spread out my risk in my real money.

    Again, he was quite correct. You don't seem ready to trade that kind of money.

  8. It reminds of those call-in financial radio shows where the caller can't figure out what to do with his $5 million blaah blah.
    300k. What size trades are you putting on?
    At 2%, 100k trades, 10 lots, approx 61k margin at 25-1? Is that right? More than that? WTF!!! You need help from us? Enough
    already!!

  9. Ok, ignore about me having $300K. Imagine YOU have it, how would YOU allocate $300K into different brokers? Where would you trade CME currency futures instead of spot fx since there is such a wide range of opinion about forex brokers?

  10. Your choice is much bigger for futures brokers because with each of them you trade on a regulated exchange unlike most forex brokers who trade against you.

    I would put 25 % with a futures broker
    25 % with Oanda,IB or Hotspot and MB
