My main critique so far would be the lack of any proprietary platform, providing only MT4. Usually reputable retail ECN brökers have their own proprietary platform (e.g. MBTrading, Dukascopy, etc). I personally hate trading through MT4 especially ...

This. If it's Russian, you better be careful. (Unfortunately for all honest individual Russian traders) Russian-based brökers have the worst reputation in the industry.

I've taken a look at it and I like it way better than MT4 especially the charting and the supporting of tick data management (tick charting, tick data export, etc.) that MT4 so shamefully lacks. But I'm not sure how stable it is as I haven't tested ...

Then what is the point?
I personally dislike MT4, but "beta" testing MT4 for the last two years with no real intention to actually integrate it is pretty unprofessional. Why keep people hoping? Either integrate it or don't.Dukascopy

Have you first contacted them for clarification? What did they say?
Does anyone know the BMFN (Boston Merchant Financial, Ltd.)?

Oanda? FxPro? lol As a high frequency scalper you should forget about market makers. Find a true ECN with direct market access, and high liquidity (which is a function of how many and how big their liquidity providers are). Also forget about MT4, ...

Yeah US regulation is a pain in the ass. It's the reason I left American brökers. Fortunately there ARE great brökers outside the so called free world (no matter what some American traders tell you, I've noticed some of them seem to think the only ...

Sometimes price respects TA ignoring all FA, sometimes it reacts to fundies ignoring all TA. In the end, what matters is neither your SR lines, nor your economic factors. What really matters in the end is where most of the money is. That's what ...

I'm afraid they don't. When you have big enough capital to move up to tier 2 brökers, expect no more than 1:100 if it's a European bröker and 1:50 if it's an US bröker.

In terms of quality, the best free data I could find is Dukascopy's. Anything better than that you'll probably have to pay.

Kt100, At least 95% traders in this market lose eventually. Think about it. Of course most reviews will be bashing. What would you expect? People don't like to fail and will blame it on anything except themselves, it's human nature. Also, people ...

Not to burst your bubble but I doubt you'll be turning a 3 figure account into a million dollars anytime soon, so this is a premature question. It's easy to grab a calculator or open a spreadsheet and compound a 3 figure number until you have a ...
