I'm looking for a reliable broker in Asia region. Pepperstone and FXopen are in my list and I need recommendation for a reliable broker. Thanks.
reliable ... pepper's history is probably cleaner than fxopen so based on fxopen past, i'd avoid them.

Houu AvaFX is cheating like hell. Never expecting it to be broker of the year same over FXCM they are big but cheating like hell & also got fined in 2011.

I would more check:

Dukascopy
MBtrading

13

Thumbs up on this post. i wish this forum actually had real traders and not promoters asking stupid questions to get the rumors to spread of a new broker

AvaFX, FXOpen, FXCM, Alpari...

All crappy brökers for kids.

Next...

Pepperstone? Seems good, but I can't confirm that due to lack of experience with it. (I can tell it's not that big of a company though.)

+1

Use a REAL ecn forex bröker, not some "spread betting" specialist company that is probably trading against you.

I just wrote a suggestion in another thread, here. (Okay, I hate promoting brökers, but experience tells me this particular offering deserves some publicity, especially since there are too many crappy suggestions in this thread)

Deutsche Bank LOL
Just kidding guys..don't bash me for this. One day i will trade directly with them. Dreaming is also a form of prayer.

Just search for brokers regulated in proper countries like australia, usa(can't hedge, low leverage), switzerland, and UK. Also eurusd spreads should be well below 0.5 most of the time(not including commission).

Well, after the events of the past few days, I think it's safe to say that PFG is NOT the best broker for 2012!

I already opened 22 Forex accounts this year (7 live and 15 demo), In my opinion Armada and Pepperstone are so far the best ones.

It depends which site you visit. Every forex broker says it was voted the best just look on their front page!

polls are rather useless for something like this since too many inexperienced newbies will be voting for what they think are good brökers.

Yup, not to mention how shady things get with fake votes.

After trying several, I finally had an account with Dukascopy.
Nothing compares.
Not so simple but absolutely worth the effort.
