Ngl, this latest batch of retail broker and prop firm news has me scratching my head over how order flow is actually getting routed right now. Seeing IG's OTC retention slip down to 70% after their market-making tweaks while retail volume is heavily concentrated in just the top 1 percent of winning accounts makes me wonder how much toxicity B-book desks are eating lately. Add in the MFF brand resurrection under new management in Dubai and legacy firms like CMC jumping into simulated prop programs, and the whole retail landscape feels like it's shifting underneath us. Are you guys noticing any weird slippage or tighter spreads during major liquidity windows because of these broker risk-management changes, or are you sticking strictly to A-booked setups until things settle?
