I think that is a good example of fraudulent rates AUD/JPY -8.89 -4.22 EUR/JPY -17.91 -5.54 How come the swap is better on the side of the pair with the lower interest and horrible on the side of the pair with the highest interest. I guess it is an attempt, as currencies like AUD and EUR have gone down quite much lately, to avoid traders enters on carry trade at a cheap price on pairs like AUDJPY and EURJPY. It is quite clear if you see the swap for all AUD pairs that they want to forbid you to go long AUD. Swap rates are defined by the difference on interest of the currencies. The rates for AUD and JPY have not changed in the last few weeks (last move was when AUD was dropped to 7%). The blah blah about volatility is really laughable ! The banks have problem, so you traders should pay ! Fortunately not all brokers are cheating like this and some keep correct swap rates.

IBFX - Strange Bars
Hi there,
I have noticed some strange bars with IBFX that look suspiciously like "stop hunting" and I would appreciate feedback from any forex gurus out there to see what your take is on this. IBFX's server is UTC(0) and the chart/times in question is GBPUSD M1 at 21:06 and 21:12 on 6th October 2008, see attached files IBFX-Live.jpg and IBFX-Demo.jpg for the screenshots. For comparisson I have attached screenshots for Alpari and FXDD. Alpari's servers are UTC(+2) so the times in question for Alpari are 23:06 and 23:12 on 6th October 2008, see attached file Alpari.jpg. FXDD's servers are UTC(+3) so the times in question for FXDD are 00:06 and 00:12 on 7th October 2008, see attached file FXDD.jpg. If you look at the IBFX-Live.jpg and IBFX-Demo.jpg screenshots you will see that at 21:06 there is a massive spike low of 1.7396 and it closes on this low. The open for this bar was 1.7450 and the volume was only 8. In effecta spike down of 54 pips on just 8 volume. The very next bar at 21:07 opens at 1.7442 an immediate spike up of 46 pips which seems volatile in the extreme. The IBFX-Demo screenshot shows these same volatile spikes as IBFX-Live. However looking at Alpari and FXDD for the exact same period they show none of this extreme price movement, see accompanying screenshots. If this just the way forex pricing works in practice or is it indicative of something else going on? Regards, Laurence.

The IBFX m1 price does look different. Could be liquidity problem. Hereby i attached 2 screenshot: 1st is the Alpari UK live account, on 23:06 and 23:12 6th of October. The next one FxPro live account, on 00:06 and 23:12 7th of October (FxPro timezone is GMT +3). Regards, matfx

I did some more investigation with the IBFX price data and found other strange bars like the one I originally posted.
I did speak to an IBFX support person. They confirmed the prices on my platform were correct but informed me that they didn't think that this kind of price movement was unusual. These extreme bars don't bear any resemblance to those of other brokers and makes me question the validity of the prices that IBFX is providing. I don't have confidence that the prices IBFX are quoting at times are a fair representation of the market. Because of this I will be closing my IBFX account.

Actually IBFX uses a smoothing algorithm, which might give you the opposite effect...
Good Luck on shopping through the "Thieves of Horrors"... There are only a handful of dealers that are CFTC licensed and NFA registered. ES Quote:

No I cannot...This is an IBFX thread. Use search for ForexSavior's thread....oh..here it is:
Proposed NFA Capital Requirement The following firms have net capital below $10 million MG Financial $5,393,000 Advanced Markets $6,786,000 Forex Club $7,558,000 Friedberg Mercantile $8,147,000 ACM $8,372,000 Ikon $9,544,000 Easy Forex $9,824,000 Hotspot $9,942,000 Not much change in capital for Advanced Markets, Forex Club and ACM. Swiss broker ACM still appears to be charging the proverbial machine gun nest with a butter knife. Is this firm really going to be able to put up $20 million in the coming months? Did they even know about this capital increase before they parachuted into the U.S. market? We’ll find out soon enough. The following firms have net capital below $20 million GFS Forex $11,451,000 MB Trading $12,767,000 ODL $14,870,000 I Trade FX $14,952,000 Alpari $15,786,000 IFX $18,623,000 FX Solutions $19,574,000 The following firms have net capital above $20 million CMS Forex $20,199,000 PFG $21,345,000 Interbank FX $36,505,000 Gain Capital $67,906,000 GFT Forex $73,219,000 FXCM $91,840,000 Oanda $165,458,000 Quote:
