Best All In One Broker

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys, other than IB, can anyone tell me about a really good broker that lets you trade stocks, futures, forex all at one place. I know TOS does this, but their executions when it comes to futures is not the best. The orders sit on the exchange and that's a problem. So, if you have any real experience at a broker that is good or know of someone who is very satisfied with a all in one broker, please post. Thank you.

MB also offers futures, stocks, forex.

They are highly rated for forex.

I still have not gotten futures to work with my Ninja. Don't yet know what's wrong.

Futures/stocks requires a separate balance/account from Forex.

 

I really wanted to use Ninja with equities, but so far, have had too many problems/lockups with the interface between Ninja and the brokerage. I've tried TD, MB so far, but not IB.

I spoke to TOS, and they said their stops are NOT SEEN by the market, as they are stored on TOS servers (NOT stored on your computer, like Ninja does, and NOT at a market maker, who can also take out your stops, and NOT at the exchange where it is viewable by the entire market). So, they are safe, and fast, and not seen by the market, so they are not hit as often as viewable stops. I have found that viewable stops by the market are nearly always hit.

I use both TOS and Tradestation. I would have to choose TOS over Tradestation. I think it would be good to hear some specifics on what you have learned regarding the negatives of TOS?

TOS stands for Think Or Swim now owned by TD Ameritrade.

 

It would be good to hear from the original poster on why he does not like TOS so we can help him figure out what might be a better choice. Some brokers tend to focus or have a specialty in one area and it may benefit them to do business with them.

Trade station is as good or as bad as IB.

There is not one reliable and proven broker who falls into the category of what you requested,

Ecry platform breaks down once a month and customer don’t have access even to a phone line to change their orders,

 

I don’t know what your experience is but if you’re a newbie the best thing for you is to choose between TS and IB at least you know your money is safe and someone is on the other side of the phone

Would you happen to know if all the above about TOS are also true with Open E Cry?

From my point of view Forex-Metal is the best broker in the world. Because the main facilities of her is it is regulated the others are: 35% first deposit bonus;

free automatic trading signals

ECN accounts with low spreads

Leverage up to 1:500 and so on.

    • @sxiqxx, Well done on making your first post a promising strategy. @everyone, post up if you want this coded into an EA. Although I switched to TradeStation, I still have an active MT5 demo with MetaEditor. I can code it without referencing object oriented programming which should be retroactively compatible with MT4. Let me know...
    • Please allow me to retort (in jest): RESPONSE 1 : Get a job supervising others where you're in control of performance reports and ride those others 100%. This makes your performance 100% with little to no effort.   RESPONSE 2: Feel free to piss off your boss but stay nonviolent. When the side effects of his viagra and testosterone boosters cause him to physically assault you, you have the legal upper hand. This can result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 3: Feel free to have intimate relations with your boss if she finds you attractive. Rest assured that mum's the word because once again, you have the legal upper hand. This can also result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 4: Don't be fake friends with any enemies... unless you need information from them. Being fake friends with everyone will cause you to become an empty shell of a person with no direction in life.   REPONSE 5: Get your boss to become reliant on your performance (really, just the performance of your subordinates), and then plan an "overheard" conversation wherein you fake an interview with another potential employer. You'll probably get a pay increase or a promotion.   RESPONSE 6: If you can give your 75% percent to a project, give 50% and rely on your legal upper hand(s). Learn to write trading algo's during your other 50%.   RESPONSE 7: Take all of the office boys out to nightclub where you merely sip soft drinks on a weeknight. Upon your return to the office in the morning, inform the security guards that all of the office boys are intoxicated. Your boss will love you for it.   RESPONSE 8: Never try to prove your client wrong or find faults in their processes, but do secretly collect their information in case you jump ship or "someone you know" decides to start his own company.   RESPONSE 9: Never stay in a firm for too long. Instead, use your ill-gotten capital to exit the rat-race and start trading.   RESPONSE 10: Trading pays more than your career. Interpersonal skills are now irrelevant. Use your technical skills for trading. Never stop learning and keep updating your technical skills.😁
    • There are a lot of trading strategies like elliot waves, wyckoff etc so we need to apply those who best suited to our need and are understandable too.
    • Scalping can be good during the high volatile markets however the new traders should be careful while entering and exiting the markets too quickly since they can make losses as well. If the broker support news trading we can make most out of the scalping in my opinion.  
    • In my opinion these candlestick charts are more easier to understand as compared with the other charts.
