I have a problem with Oanda's withdrawal policy

Guaranteed Stop loss

so i guess what you really mean to say is not guaranteed, but rather 'minimum' stop loss. so if you were to enter a trade, your stop loss has to be a certain number of points away? if the requirement is 20 pips away, you can set your stop loss ...

Guaranteed Stop loss

go to this thread, there's already a discussion on it: url pretty sure you are trying to ask for the same thing where you set a stop loss of 20 pips, it will close your trade out at 20 pips, no slips. not quite sure what you mean by between 15-30 ...

Hotspot FX

marytpip says it quite nicely. if they can basically guarantee a max spread, then there's obvious manipulation on their part. with that said, the same thing can be said about icmarkets and their 10 pip spread. isn't it possible that they are ...

Axitrader feedback, anyone?

Hurry up and open a demo account and see if you can see it in there. If you can't, that's a huge first warning. Second of all, check to see if that spike disappears. If it does, then possibly they are stop loss hunting and correcting the price feeds ...

Armada Crashing all over the place

Well I hope so too, hopefully someone from London can check up on their physical office and get a better idea of a face to face chat with the owner. But Google Maps is showing up as South Africa for me, specifically Johannesburg 2108, South Africa.

Squared Financial

Perhaps I'm being paranoid, but I smell a pyramid/ cycling scheme. Everyone deposits 300 pounds (i think) with them and starts demo trading. then they slowly use that capital to finance those that pass. keeping 30% of the profit and then they pretty ...

Also be sure to check their 'storage' policy. I learned it the hardway with Tradersway. They are one of the brokers that still keep your IDs even if you close your account with them. They don't delete it, some do, some don't so be sure to check up ...

IC Markets

depends on the market condition. a fixed spread market maker with a 4 pip spread on major pairs may be cheaper than an ECN when the spread is is spiking and widening and to make matter worse, the trader has to accommodate for the commission.

ECN and Commission? Is it worth it?

and now i question, is any broker really honest? or is this an industry with foul play at every corner?

IC Markets

ofc a scalper would earn back the commissions, their profit target will be higher than the commissions. for example, if the commission is $7 rtsl, then when they place a standard lot order for a pair such as eurusd, each pip is worth $10 so $7 is ...

Recommended broker to trade Stocks? (for Canadians)

my personal choice would be to go offshore/ go with an internet brokerage. they are also known as discount brokerage as stock trade commissions can be quite insane. i've seen some brokers offer commissions of $29.99 or so which is quite high. with ...

Recommended broker to trade Stocks? (for Canadians)
