It may be a response to the BBY collapse.
And disallowing FX trading appears to be for all clients, and not just individuals - IB still allows cpys & trusts to trade stocks/futs on margin.
It may be a response to the BBY collapse.FWIW it feels like ASIC have got it wrong here - seems like they are really squeezing IB (no margin for stocks, now this)
FWIW it feels like ASIC have got it wrong here - seems like they are really squeezing IB (no margin for stocks, now this) - I don't understand why they would target IB which seems like a pretty clean, well operated business which I feel 'smarter' individuals use and not target CFD bucket shops
Yes.... there are plenty of worse things in the market for ASIC to go after you'd think.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if IB decides that it's had enough of it. Australia is a small enough market as it is so pouring resources to satisfy the ever changing ASIC mood is unlikely to be great business.
My view entirely - which is a real shame because I think its an excellent discount provider for those who know what they are doing.
If IB was to pull out of the aussie market - whats the next best share trading alternative? Are there other options or does one just suck it up and head to the big 4?

what's the normal spread you guys see on the DAX?
I'm looking at the FDAX 9-15
mainly seeing .5-3 spreads normal?
Cheers
BUT very occasionally some orders don't get filled in very fast moves (IG's explanation is if price has moved greater than 3 points from the time you place the order, it gets cancelled)
Boom!!!
DAX
C'mon Tech, we know you were on it..., few grand perhaps?
