Dear Dtn,
IB just launched CFDs on more than 1200 European shares, including liquid small caps. This basically means that these most interesting issues became tradeable commission and leverage (1:10) wise.
But there is no single provider of European market data at the retail level.
This is such a great niche to be taken by you, please can you consider adding these markets to your current offering? Maybe you could arrange a poll to find out how many of us want such an addition?
Thanks.
