This is correct. Remember that no broker can possibly have enough liquidity just from their "book" of clients (ECN) to be liquid, so you don't just want an ECN. You want STP and ECN, meaning a broker that allows customers to add liquidity in the ...

This is what Justin has said from the start...that they did not see a move from PFL to FREE EXN for active scalpers trying to get filled on the bid/ask. In fact, those people would still be better on PFL, and I suspect that that's where they are, to ...

100% true. I think MB really better than Oanda at this point.

I didn't experience any issues today when logging into desktop pro so it must not have been too long. Hopefully it didn't cause issues for you. Justin, I've enjoyed this thread and appreciate your input.

I only have experience with the MB Trading Free EXN execution, but it has been perfect and stress free. Have you tested both of them yet? Please let us know what you find! Thanks!

Just wanted to share that MBT Trading has great plans and decreased their commission rate from 2.95 to 2.50. I've been pleased and recommend them. Happy trading

You clearly don't get how MBT works. You said all orders are a market order hitting a limit order. That simply isn't the case. MBT is an STP broker FIRST. You can see it by size on the Level 2. Most market orders from their customers go out and hit ...

Hello, I know this thread was started 6 years ago, but I'm curious as to how things are going for you? I'm in the stages of finding the demo is much different than live trading. Once I accepted the fact I will experience losses and the key is to ...

Come on, Man. First you have the original question and now this? The market is closed. There is no real data until Sunday afternoon/evening. MB Trading FREE EXN has basically the best spreads out there and you actually get filled. Don't listen to ...

Great news Justin. Very helpful since I couldn't check my trades through your other Mobile app. Thank you.

You know, I don't run a huge account, but I did do some rather large (for me) live order size testing before I started trading with them full time. To me, demo trading is useless, and if you really want to know if a broker has good liquidity, you ...

That's just nonsense. I trade on both systems, and I can tell you that there is not any better liquidity on FREE EXN. A tighter spread doesn't mean better liquidity. As someone else said, a broker could set a 0.1 pip spread and not fill you on any ...

Having only used one other broker, I am quite pleased with MB for a small/micro account. Issues are seldom and if it does happen, always fixed right away. They're willing to help make improvements. I'm working on getting you info on the pivot points. ...

No kidding. That is ridiculous, nothing on the page like that.

I'm definitely taking advantage of the spreads with MB Trading's free exn account, and why not, right? All the brokers have their tech issues, so I look at other aspects of how they deal with issues when they arise and what types of other tools do ...

Be careful with that, it isn't just retail accounts. When they first issued that rule, Oanda was counting accounts that earned interest. That data can be misleading.

Yeah, I agree.

Tell me about it. With a low barrier to entry, forex tends to attract a lot of people who want to start small and get big, but I think it's like anything else and you have to put in the work to realize the reward.

Not sure what happened, but I tried to go to their website and it freaked out my computer and I had to force close it, so I couldn't even see what they have to offer.

Agreed. But I can't help but feel overwhelmed sometimes as I learn more about forex and how to be a successful trader. So I think another good quality to have is the ability to keep things in perspective and not get too caught up in the minutia at ...
