    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

Latency Arbitrage

Read a few thousand of my posts and you'll be assured I'm not a broker. You'll also likely trip over a number of threads where someone traded for years and then the broker said something like "The LP say you are using latency arbitrage. We're shutting you down." I'd think this could happen just as easily with A book or B book brokers.


You are right but if you any hedge like lock arbitrage or any other - it is more difficult for LP to find your strategy.
 
Difficult, but not impossible.

Plus, you aren't really trading. You're just using software to exploit system weaknesses while also handing bad brokers an excuse to steal profits from legitimate traders.
 
It is two types of arbitrage situation:
  1. Price difference between 2 LPs

  2. speed difference
If broker use chain:

Trader-mt4 server- bridge -LP

It is no problem in both cases.

But if it is b-book broker - it is problem for broker BUT b book broker plays against trader and it is no moral problem to play against this broker.
 
That's the problem with people who think it's Ok to throw ethics to the wind. They often turn out to be unethical and cheat in other areas. For example, in addition to trying to cheat for profit instead of trade for profit, it appears that Spam Cat finally figured out that you had more than one forums account without bothering to get special permission from the forums admin.

If you know the person in the next apartment is a thief do you know what the police will call you if you are caught breaking into the thief's apartment since you would feel there's no moral problem taking things from a thief? The correct answer is that the police will call you a thief and arrest you for burglary. While you are awaiting trial, they might thank you for helping expose the thief who lived next door to you, but that won't reduce your well-deserved time in prison.
