well here's really my dilemma. it's true a 0 pip spread or even a negative spread does not last very long, i don't understand how brokers can give an absolute minimum. i'm pretty sure in terms of liquidity providers, these don't change too much from ...

Lets end this once and for all... looking for a true ECN

I would actually consider ICMarkets and ExcelMarkets to be ECN. As of the moment, they both have characteristics that support them, however, anyone care to take another look at them? But probably my biggest confusion is why these brokers list ...

Lets end this once and for all... looking for a true ECN

damn, this just discouraged me. i'm really trying to stay away from usa brokers, but apparently that isn't going to be possible.

what! that doesn't make sense! if they have poor pricing feeds, then this should be reflected through all their accounts regardless. however, by the looks of this, it is only affecting the pro account, which means stop loss hunting for traders with ...

Alpari Mystery

commission is quite high. i originally thought the $8 per round lot over at atcbrokers is high, but compared to this, boston prime is definitely higher. also, the spreads are not as competitive as tradersway, lqdmarkets, and exness. i would suggest ...

Boston Prime - best broker for Scalpers?

they say they are part of the Financial Services Complaints Limited, but this doesn't look like a regulatory body to me. is this an organization for brokers to be a part of or is this an actual regulatory body like the NFA? as of right now, i have ...

Fidelis CM

I've used them before, but don't recommend them. the execution speed is decent, but occasionally slow. as for the leverage, well, that really gets offset with the frequency in which you can open and close trades. they do take the scalping really ...

i see u area considering oanda which is a market maker so might i suggest going with mahifx if you really want low spreads. their spreads are instanely tight, but also they not have any commission. although not very big at the moment, but does have ...

Best broker for scalping

brokers aren't as transparent as they used to be. clearly lqdmarkets is doing both. that's why they have a set of floating spreads account and fixed spreads account, which has nothing to do with the deposit and spreads. ECNs (matchmaking) tends to ...

LiquidMarkets

it's too bad that the interest option is not optional for the rest of us. i would rather not take the interest than have to take it.

OANDA Discussion

just one more question, how do i predefine a standard stop loss and take profit per trade. any chance to do that or must i do this manually per trade?

MahiFX Opinions

thanks, just wondering if it's possible to extend my demo account so i can fully learn how to use the webtrader before actually trading with real cash. i would hate to lose it due to lack of terminal knowledge.

MahiFX Opinions

i would stick with oanda. yes, they are a market maker and they do manipulate spreads during news. they inflate it slightly, but they are much more transparent than fxsolution. for example, they will publicize long and short positions, historic ...

Which broker to trade with - investing $1000

demo-ed on their webtrader and i still don't get it. good for scalping, but the platform seems a bit complex for me. will continue trying right now, but my trade entries don't look right. takes multiple navigations to place a trade rather than a ...

if you want to be a professional trader, probably go with TradeStation, they seem to be more reliable and have a better terminal than most brokers. They also offer the securities you are looking for so give them a try: url

Reliable broker that offers forex, stocks, and commodies?

no, would not recommend avafx. heard a lot of complains regarding the execution speed once switched over to live accounts. not sure how many servers they have to handle trades, but not enough as it seems and also far away meaning long execution ...

Which Broker is truly reliable?

just wondering why you decided to go with octafx? they have always been the much smaller player in this market and are average in my opinion if you compare them to some of the bigger brokers...anything in particular? other than the $8 bonus thing ...

Can't get funds from my broker

it seems like your account began having issues when you wanted to withdraw your profits, but then again the issues went away when you started getting losses in your account. by the looks of it, you should've tried to waited it out rather than ...

Can't get funds from my broker

Trader's Way: url was already mentioned so thought i would just provide the link Another broker is LiquidMarkets: url probably worry about the actual liquidity as its name suggestion may not hold true. however, it does offer cTrader.

cTrader Platform Brokers?

hi, i am currently trading with instaforex and i have a positive experience with them. So far so good with them as withdrawals always are paid within 36 hours (a bit long than average 24 hours), but this is consistent as encounters one withdrawal ...
