Live from New York!

Hi Everyone,

My name is Jason. I have over a dozen years of trading experience across stocks, futures and forex. I used to trade US Treasury futures for a firm based out of Chicago (though I worked in their New York office). For the last 10 years, I've worked in the currency markets.

While I now trade 16 different currency pairs, my primary strategy focuses on the 10 crosses of 5 the major currencies (USD, EUR, JPY, GBP and AUD). I look forward to having some great discussions with you on this forum.

Cheers!

The first case posted was dismissed in November of 2011.

In regards to the other two links, FXCM should have passed on positive slippage from the beginning. As part of our settlements with the NFA and FCA, we reimbursed affected clients for positive slippage they should have received prior to 2010. That same year, we updated our execution system to pass on all positive slippage in full whenever it's available.

Furthermore, in compliance with NFA rules regarding Price Slippage and Price Re-quoting that were finalized in 2012, FXCM LLC provides daily trade reports to the NFA which monitors and supervises FXCM LLC's activity including information on the price where all client orders are filled and the corresponding price where those orders are offset with our liquidity providers. All of FXCM's global trading entities including FXCM UK execute client rolling spot forex transactions as a riskless principal with FXCM LLC, so the same execution standards are applied for all of our clients worldwide.

To this day, FXCM remains one of the few firms in the industry to pass on positive slippage on all order types including market and limit orders. By contrast, some brokers will re-quote their clients rather than letting them benefit from positive slippage. There are no re-quotes at FXCM.
