Recommend an Options Broker

[Stever]

I posted this down in the Derivatives Section but I see there is only one other post there last year. So i doubt it would get seen.

I am looking for a forex broker that offers options trading. Covers Gold Silver as well as currencies. Low transparent fees tight spreads. Well established brokerage no IB's or White Lables.

Thanks Yigal but I am looking for tradeable options that I can day trade or scalp on or possibly hold for a few days or till expiry if need be.

Please clarify what is a "tradable" option. Cos I buy sell daily weekly options at IG. Daily have 4-6 pip spread are the best for scalping.

I guess i missinterpreted the description of the options at IG. Looked liked they expire at EOD they either hit or miss. Does the premium value of these options at IG fluctuate with the market can the option then be sold before expiry should the market go in the right direction sell the thing for a profit without having to wait till expiry?

I'll take a closer look at the IG site.

Yes you can do all that. Look you can open an account online take a look a live option prices for yourself (no need to send funds to an account).
Actually if you know a broker with better spreads on daily opltions than IG please let me know.
