Thanks again Dave,

Sounds good. Yeah in my opinion one of the brilliant things that FXCM did early on that really gave them an edge was simplify the order entry offerings so someone who is new to trading did not have to spend a lot of time learning the logistics of the platform and could learn about the market.

The funny thing is that a side effect of that is that it actually makes things a little confusing for more experienced guys at first.

Best,
Dave
