    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.

    More info coming soon.

If you're going to say there are no good brokers for trading news don't bother to reply. there are some and there are ways of testing each broker to see if the spread widens. to see if the platform freezes or if there is a ton of slippage during high impact news. i'm not asking for perfection im asking for some who arent as bad at manipulating than others.

Again if you're going to post and laugh at this and cast down the idea don't reply thankyou. If you don't want to share the broker with the public then message me please thankyou :)
 
I think a good broker is a good broker regardless of which strategy you are planning on using so I would recommend that you find a good broker and you should be fine.
 
There are no good brokers for trading news. :p

In reality, you can trade the news. You need a real ECN broker with good liquidity. Of course, the lot size you plan to trade will make a difference. Trading 1 lot during the news is one thing. Trading 20 or more could add partial fills on top of requote and slippage issues.
