jen101 replied Dec 28, 2015I have traded with XM for about a year now. During that time I have also used a number of other brokers. I can vouch that XM do seem honest; I haven't noticed any stop hunting or any other dubious tactics nor any problems with withdrawals. Their ...

jen101 replied Dec 15, 2015If the outcome is as expected (i.e. a hike) then that is no surprise to the market. Price moves on the surprise element, not on actual outcome. So, what is happening at the moment is probably no more than simple supply/demand.

jen101 replied Nov 20, 2015Yes, you need a good ecn broker. I am testing on FXOpen, seems fine. I am not currently using the SL feature because I want to try the right level. After I have enough appropriate results I will look at the max drawdown and decide from that.
