FXCM are just a basket case; they have slick advertising but everything else they do is against the interest of the trader and in the interests of FXCM. One example is their introduction of 'At best' execution which means they fill you at worst ...

Broker took my $2k back

You say that you have done this for years in your post above. If you have done this with the same broker and they have always paid up, I would cop it sweet this time if I were you and let this case rest. Win some, lose some. You may well have been ...

Broker took my $2k back

I repeat, I have seen it many times, I can't tell you any more

Broker took my $2k back

Let's explain a stale price and off quotes for the benefit of all. - The price you click to enter before a major announcement is NOT a stale price. It is a valid price before the spike. It cannot be stale since the spike has not started and prices ...

Broker took my $2k back

Nonsense, you dont know what you are talking about. The poster Metcalfe above is right. And I wonder whether you were ever a news trader, Moe? If you did, you were always an after the spike trader. They may kick you out but they still pay your ...

Broker took my $2k back

Very fast withdrawal. I asked for a wire and got my funds in my account the following day. Plus they have the tightest spreads. I have seen GBP/JPY at 2-3 pips spreads at times of high liquidity. Although the spreads are variable.

Ikon Royal spreads

Your statement above is correct. Good broker.

MT4 Brokers' Virtual Dealer Plug-In

Don't be fooled by their claims, my friend, it's no more than a sales pitch. Possibly something for the NFA to investigate their claims as it could well fall in the category of false advertising.

GFT Forex Discussion

Which brokers are these?

Interactive Brokers or ????

I only recently came across this thread and this post. But what can I say? Great post and kudos for saying it exactly as it is. Bravo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to give up this forex soon.

They have been busted many times by the NFA for false advertising. Just do a search on IBFX on NFA website.

Is InterBank Fx Is Another Growing Broker??

I can't understand why somemone who claims to swing trade would be affected by that. Just open 2 positions. Or even 10 standard lots one at a time. What does it matter? It only matters if you are .......uhh...... scalping

Is InterBank Fx Is Another Growing Broker??

This is just part of an email that they sent for NFA compliance. There is nothing new there, it has been so all along. All bucketshops brokers trade against their clients, not just IBFX. You can add to the list all existing metatrader brokers as ...

Is InterBank Fx Is Another Growing Broker??

I imagine from your previous posts that you dont trade at times of high volatility? Although I don't trade with MIG I think there is a higher degree of satisfaction with a broker if you swing trade. But I take your point that you feel they are a ...

Mig Fx

Common guys, I know how you all feel but we all know that these matters take a hell of a long time to get resolved. I have never seen early resolution to this type of situation to date. Not wanting to sound negative, but I cant remember people in ...

FXLQ Shut down temporarily by NFA

It is strange that you say in a post above that you will no longer post about spreads. The snapshot of GFT spreads that you posted is nothing like the advertised spreads. I cant see EUR or GBP or JPY at 1 pip spread.

Spreads poll

You rarely see these low spreads on the GFT platform (although I have seen it at times). I think that it is just a marketing exercise.

Spreads poll

Zen, Oanda has maximum leverage of 50-1. For the type of situation you describe above you need to find a broker that offers 200-1 leverage.

Calculation confused, please help

This is exactly what would have happened to you if you were trading live. You would have lost your 30K. Why enrich your broker? As a beginner, you cannot win at forex. There is a learning process involved which takes at least 2 years. You should ...

Help me choose a Broker ... Please!

The research done by ForexSavior is much appreciated and what he is saying is factual; I cant see what he stands to gain from this research. Really, we should all read it and form our own opinion.
