This is not an "Americans only" forum, so don't be so self-centered. Not everyone in the world has to give a crap about american regulation. If a bröker cannot accept american clients, then it's because of your government and its restricting ...

Best Broker for 2012?

1) I never heard of this bröker before. 2) 2.5 pip spread on EURUSD. Seriously? 3) 1.5 only if you deposit $10k and ECN only if you deposit $25k? Sounds like the kind of bröker that just wants to push you to deposit more money, no equal treatment ...

Golder Markets

It kinda is unfortunately. Too many are too dependent on MT4 hence the tendency of these retail brökers. Anyway, I spoke to them too, asking whether they provide an API access that they're not mentioning in their website. They said they don't but ...

LMAX = revolution?!?

Like I said before, this bröker was promising at first, but then chose to go downhill. There's always gonna be shills though.

LMAX = revolution?!?

Or you can download a demo of their JForex platform and export any data you want from it. Just go to Tools > Historical Tester. Their data is high quality and totally free, which is nice of them considering that some people would charge money to ...

He said 3 pips slippage. You do know what that means right? Well said.

True. The only way to prove it is to risk real money and trade with them live for a while, and then judge from their performance (you'd also need to be experienced with real ECN's to tell the difference). But generally you can avoid that trouble by ...

I don't know about the "unbalanced sense of justice" thing. The way I see it he was just expressing a certain feeling for a certain reason. Like saying "I wish you the best of luck", doesn't mean it's gonna happen (i.e. getting the BEST of luck). ...

OANDA Discussion

No. It's not just his need. It's just that YOUR needs are limited and you want to impose those limitations on everybody else and if they don't like it then nobody cares, Oanda surely doesn't, all while singing about being such a unique bröker that ...

OANDA Discussion

STP and DMA are not contradictory to ECN. STP is just an order processing technology (with no dealing desk) and DMA simply means direct market access. A network like Currenex (which is not a bröker but an ECN technology used by many institutions to ...

Wow. After the stuff I just read, you guys are way too retarded to have any discussion with, no WONDER you trade here. I change my mind, this bucketshop is the perfect one for you. Enjoy.

Misspellings aside, well said QuadrupleX. The people who run Oanda are pretty stubborn. For example they've always limited leverage to 50:1 even before the new CFTC regulations existed (and even in Oanda Europe where they can still provide it). Why? ...

OANDA Discussion

It's impossible as FXTrade does not support custom scripts/EA's. So your only option within the FXTrade platform is to do it manually. Your other option outside of FXTrade is to sign up for their API access and have your strategy/scripts written ...

OANDA Discussion

lolwut Because it's not, and the dispute resolution scheme it claims to have is total bullshit. There's no segregation of funds either. So if one day they decided to run away with all clients' money, there is abslutely nothing you can do about it. ...

Yes, "market maker" is not necessarily bad, he seems to have a misconception of the word, but I see what he means. It seems that YOU do not understand what "unregulated russian bucketshop" is and how it really operates. Don't worry I won't reveal ...

There's probably nobody in this forum who does real HFT (they'll call it "scalping" without realizing there's a difference between that and HFT) so you probably won't get that kind of info here. Just talk to Dukascopy and make sure you ask for ...

It's an email response I got from Dukascopy Europe's customer support.

Dukascopy

Well this is the answer I got from R. Zile: "Due to technical issue for moment withdrawal is possible only via bank wire for time being." Bad English + He doesn't mention when/if this "technical issue" will be resolved = Bad sign. I think I'll just ...

Thanks vas69. Don't you hate it when customer support contradict each other, like when one agent tells you one thing but another agent tells you the opposite. I guess I'll have to double check with them one more time before proceeding ...
