Do the demo accounts also lag? I haven't noticed it but I would like to know before I fund my account (not that it should matter on 4H charts).

DislikedYou would not know what it's all about because you trade the 4hr and daily timeframe as you say yourself. So a few seconds delay in execution does not matter to you.
But when you trade the lower timeframes where you enter and exit trades quickly then delayed execution by a few seconds matter and it's a problem. It's not too hard to guess what all the fuss is about. It's about some traders not getting the quick execution that they need for their trading style.Ignored
DislikedI figured that this would be the case but I had not read any comments where people mentiond the timeframes they were trading (I could have missed it if it was mentioned before).
I posted my comment because it seems that there are a lot of people complaining about the broker, but from the sounds of it the traders' methods are half the problem with the small timeframes etc....Ignored
DislikedMost of us have already moved on to another broker. Don't waste any more time with them. It's not worth it.
Some of the good reviews on here about them are just not credible.Ignored
DislikedHi Kbg, hope this will be of some help:
1. Have you decidedly closed your account with GoMarkets?
Yes, I have withdrawn all my funds from Go Markets and closed my account. It's a long story really. You are one year too late in trying to trade with this broker. They used to be good when they had subsecond execution but all this changed some months ago.

DislikedHi Kbg, hope this will be of some help:
.......Why would anyone start trading with 100K? You are about to make a big mistake. You appear to be new to trading and you should start with say, 5k. Unless you have a proven winning strategy you should start small and build up from there. You can win a lot of money in forex but you can also lose huge sums so keep that in mind.
