What Forex broker has the best spreads/commissions combination? -

Most Forex brokers have spreads of at least 2 pips on EUR/USD and many are 3 or 4 pip spreads. I m currently using Interactive Brokers whose spread on EUR/USD runs about 1 to 2 pips plus a small commission. Are there any Forex brokers that are better? I haven t heard of any. You re probably better off where you are, paying a small commission to keep the spread small. The spreads are terrible on the cross pairs, 8 and 10 pips. That s a $100 commission. But really, execution is more important than the spread. If you pay a one pip spread but get 2-10 pips slippage, you re worse off than just paying the 2-pip spread. I broker through FXDD (through PremiereTrade), and have been having real solid executions, right on the money, with no slippage at all until last Friday s Non-Farm Payroll report, and got raped for 56 pips from my order on the Euro. But there was some funny business with that report. My Entry Order executed at 8:29 a.m., one minute before the Report. Somebody was front-running, with advance knowledge, and everybody else got raped. How d you do? dredude52@yahoo.com
