Disliked{quote} Personally I don't have any problems with IC Markets on Live Server 01. Maybe ask to be transferred to a different server? It's also a good idea to remove all quotes from the watchlist of any instruments you're not actually following - it can really bog down MT4 if there is a lot of market activity. No matter how good your internet connection is, my own view is that it's essential to trade from a VPS in the same data centre as the broker. If all else fails ditch IC markets and use Global Prime. The spreads may be slightly higher but if you...Ignored
Disliked{quote} That's rather subjective don't you think? They have tight spreads but the liquidity is often pretty thin at the top, so depending on what "big" actually is you may get slipped a fair bit. I wouldn't say they play games though.Ignored
Disliked{quote} No, I don't have a recommendation, all I'm saying is download cTrader so you can see the level 2 price data and see if they have the liquidity to fulfill your needs.Ignored
DislikedI have noticed a new trend emerging in the IC Markets feed for the past month (perhaps longer but have just lately noticed). At the start of an hour the platform freezes for about 1.5-2.5 minutes. It's not long enough to set off the disconnect signal but very frustrating when trying to enter a trade with an hourly confirmation signal. It just happened again to me at 05:00 (broker time) the platform froze and didn't restart till 05:01:58, there were no news releases and no high volatility ...no excuses. Sure they may fix if I complain like they did...Ignored
Disliked{quote} So far I have had 4 shorter freezes today that have lasted only around 40 seconds (that I have seen) but there is definitely a problem. I sent a screen recording to support yesterday of both my live accounts freezing but haven't heard back yet. I captured 4 platforms 2x of each account including one platform that has no EA's running on it and all froze for over 2 minutes at the same time. In the video was my live AxiTrader platform that was still running. The recording was done without a hitch as all my other applications etc don't suffer...Ignored
Disliked{quote} I was having problems with freezing data feeds, and contacted online help. They showed me that they could access data when mine was freezing. It turned out the problem was at my end. Try resetting your network equipment - modem, switches, ect. Doing this fixed my problems.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I reset my router just about everyday for clear signals (leaving a router on can make your connection deteriorate). I did all my checks before contacting the broker. It reminds me of my phone company about 6 months ago. I complained my internet connection was slow and it was from their end. The service person didn't believe me and proceeded to ask me a million questions where I simply answered "checked". After going through days of this they finally checked the connection from their end and the next day they sent a service repairman...Ignored
DislikedI got the message which says mini terminal and trade terminal app will expire on 2nd dec what ddoes this mean? are they not providing this app any more? why? I was with IC only for the reason I liked this app because I am scalper.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I dont know about this but I use cTrader anyway, it is much better for scalping.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Why dont you open a live account on another one of their servers. I think they have 4 of them.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Like I've said previously this is possibly an option. It hasn't been offered by support yet and it is dependent on execution speed. It may also not fix the issue. I'm still waiting for a response from my last recording to see if they have any solutions.Ignored
