Go IB go!!! Oanda still have the upper hand due to variable lot size start from 1 unit (IB too have it but it starts from 25,000 units) and IB's...
They did a GREAT job reducing the comms from $5 per side minimum to $2.5 per side minimum recently due to requests on this forum. Though i'll...
I think min. account size is $2k. (check out www.interactivebrokers.com) If you do 250,000 units per lot you might get a better deal on...
