if you're afraid of your broker going in to default option you can pick a broker with FDIC, SIPC or FCSC protection.Originally Posted by ;
What kind of deposit are you trading?Originally Posted by ;
If you're trading little it actually doesn't matter.
If you're trading large there are various other solutions to get some safety for your own funds.
Small meaning below 100K.
A number of accounts are much better as you have more income. Merely to diversify risk in your broker side.
Like an all eggs in a basket rather thing.
It actually depends, IMHO, on what it is you are interested in trading. If you are not as diversified, and you're keeping separate accounts with brokers who focus on similar assets, then I am not sure what is actually gained by it. On the other hand, if a single broker has excellent conditions and choices in Forex, while another one concentrates more on, say, commodities, then two accounts could be profitable.
Not accurate, but it slows you down.Originally Posted by ;
There are other choices to safeguard your cash than distributing it over different brokers.
However not one broker will offer it for deposits under 100K.
Just stay with reliable brokers who also utilize solid banks for clients deposits.
Both options have pros and cons,if we would like to distribute money then more accounts are better ,but if working on little capital ,it's much better to have one account,which means that your mind isn't redirected on separate accounts IMHO
It might only make sense in the instance Beldavash used.
Using 2 distinct brokers to trade the same instruments is just plain dumb.
Different brokers for various financial markets of course can make sense.
How does this slow me down?Originally Posted by ;
I can take the same trades or disperse my trades over multiple accounts. It doesn't matter.
What does matter are the limits concerning the amount of your cash regulators protect and in case something happens to or with one of your broker.
Then at least you have a backup. I heard many stories where brokers had problems when customers wanted to draw cash.
As I said before, this will not apply for your little 10k account. You CAN do it with that too, but it really gets its function when you have 30-50k and over.
