Those standards include a code of conduct for our members, as well as extremely high standards that govern which partners we do business with, and which products or services we recommend to our members.
At futures io, our focus is on quality education. No hype, gimmicks, or secret sauce. The truth is: trading is hard.

With futures io, you can find honest trading reviews on brokers, trading rooms, indicator packages, trading strategies, and much more. Our trading review process is highly moderated to ensure that only genuine users are allowed, so you don’t need to worry about fake reviews.

Since the demise of PFG Best, I am in the market for a new broker. I have been reading the different threads on futures.io (formerly BMT), but I haven’t found what I am looking for.
I was hoping someone could help me point me in the right direction and it may help out anyone else who might have (had) a PFG account.
I am looking for a US based broker which has futures, forex and will let me live trade mini forex (not the M6E). I’m not trading futures at this point, but I do review charts on futures. One of these days I will hopefully be able to play with the big kids and trade 6E, TF and Es.
Also, I am on ninja trader platform. NT is not perfect, but is meets my needs and I would rather not learn a new platform.

MBtrading... i use 'em, they're nice and versatile. I don't trade forex but i've read they're very good.
IMHO worth looking into.
I have approximate answers, possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty of different things. But I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things i don't know anything about.

Agree, based on needing both futures and forex, MBT is a good option. You can also look at InteractiveBrokers.

I wonder what type of datas you get from Gain Capital (What's the source). Maybe we can match their feed with Kinetick using the professional option for Forex datas as the basic Kinetick feed for Forex comes from FXCM.
