I really hate Dukas. They just fished a EURPLN stop away with a 270 pip spread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When does the swiss Finma wake up and shut Dukascopy down? It's fraud all the way. BTW - my deposit at Dukas was much higher than you mentioned.

You are basically correct: 100.000 USD exposure requires 250 USD at 400 leverage. Leverage is inverse of margin. But keep in mind that if you are 100.000 EUR long against the USD, it's not 250 USD collateral but 250 EUR.

Most people say trading is an emotion and stick to your strategy thing... might be. But 99% of the traders don't have the basic knowledge about the broker and the market to have even a minimum chance to make money. Trading is a knowledge game and ...

Hi Daniel, you can't compare demo accounts to live accounts as the underlying data is (very often) not the same. On news trading you might be fine in your demo account but not get decent fills in live. Even quality brokers reject or slip you like ...

Hi Uae, here some tips: - regulated brokers have to segregate assets, unregulated often don't - view websites for segregation of funds and warranty limits - some brokers are associated with broker-dealer organizations that own funds for bailing out ...

Hi Traders, just a few questions - why is everybody so keen on leverages higher than 100? - what exactly are your parameters to decide whether or not a broker is good? - how do you detect a bad broker? - what makes you think a broker is very good? ...

Honestly Daniel2, your account statement does not mean its going to be long term profitable. It only shows you have a good trade setting of winning much more on a profit trade than losing on a loss trade (which is very the right way to do it). Your ...

1) Dukascopy is claiming to be a ECN, which I doubt. I am sure there is matching and B-Booking. 2) The execution quality of Dukas is just bad and when you are profitable the rejection rates skyrocket. 3) Overnight rolling costs are bad as many ...

Hi MC, in your case focus on the swaps. Dukas is bad with overnights. Better Alpari, maybe IronFX. Try to negotiate with your account opening clerk to pay more spread but get interbank rolling or premium client rolling cost. Tell him you will ...

Hi Yall, I have a Dukascopy account since 2010. I traded approx. 50-80m per month and analyzed Dukascopy in detail before closing it last year. I can not recommend opening an account with Dukascopy. Even though they are regulated it is one of the ...
