Hi highbury fx,
Thank you for your insights and for being so candid.
I'm sure you won't comment on anything that you don't want to but, by the same token, I don't want to put you in the position of having to politely abstain from answering or side stepping 'difficult' questions! With this in mind, I'll keep my question very general - feel free to ignore it altogether if you wish . . .
SB firms take the other side of their clients trades - this is well known and accepted. By extension, many people will argue that SB firms actively want/need their clients to lose so that they win. Some folk claim that the SB firm will employ dirty tricks (price spikes, cancelled orders, slippage plus a bit more etc.) to accounts that are consistently profitable. Ultimately, if that doesn't work and the client remains profitable, they will decline that client's business and close the account.
My (general) question is: would you care to comment on any of the above?
Thanks in advance,
Tim.
