Dear Traders
I needed to choose between 2 brokers, these 2 brokers option are what i needed for my trading.
but i am not sure which broker is trustworthy, I would be happy if you could help me in making my decision, let me know if u have any personal experience with these brokers.
I have already read FPA but most of the thread was posted long ago

1- broco: www.brocompany.com
leverage 1:500 Regulated by FSC
"http://www.gov.mu/portal/sites/ncb/fsc/index.html"

2- masterforex: www.masterforex.org
leverage 1:500 Regulated by KROUFR
http://kroufr.org/

You may try to find other traders reviews. That might help you to choose, at least, the reliable one.

Well, since Broco are now spoken of in past tense, and Masterforex is an unregulated russian bucketshop with a long history of proven scam behaviour, your choice is obviously "None of the Above"

Kroufr is not a regulator. It's a private enterprise like that RAFMM joke. Made up of related companies pretending to be an independent regulatory agency although RAFMM is worse since every company in that "regulator" is owned by the same guy!

The Russians think we are stupid

Hi,

hv traded fx market for over 10 years...I rarely come to any forum.

anyways...

I remember broco - cannot recommend, as it had bad reviews a long time ago.

My recommendations are,

1. Dukascopy - still trade them, best with low margin requirement.
2. MBTrading - one of my buddy trades has good execution, as I hv tried it through his account.
3. PFGBest - still trading with them...very best.
4. ATC Brokers - good, I hv traded with them before, they are OK.
5. LCG(London capital) - Execellent - Need $50000.00 to trade, may inquire, as they may hv reduced, not sure.


There are some more But I forgot their names.

maybe someone can help me:

I am in the US but I would like to be able to hedge, use MT4, have a micro account and I do not want my broker to trade against me.

I have been using IBFX but I cannot seem to hedge anymore. I am checking into it but I think they may have changed their rules on US residents.

Thanks for any help.

If you don't want your broker to trade against you, why are you using IBFX? They are a market maker.

Did you read their Terms of Business?

Lol, Masterforex, what a russian scam broker!

In my opinion, the good brokers are fxopen and mbtrading.

fxopen? The company run by "Dr. Alex K."??? The company with no contact address, no details of regulation??? The company that lets you open a live account without supplying any identification or proof of address???
