Sunday gap trading: brokers opening at 5pm EST Sunday?

I'm ideally looking for a micro/nano broker that opens at 5PM EST Sunday with decent spreads to trade Sunday gaps. I would use FXPro but they don't offer micro accounts. Alternatively I'd use Oanda but their spreads look ridiculous at the Sunday open.

I'd be interested in hearing which brokers everyone uses, what time they open on Sunday and what their spreads are like.

Cheers

FX Solutions open at 5:15pm and they have fixed spreads.

Thanks Heliodz - I'll check them out.

FXDD opens at 5PM and they have fixed spreads.

So having found a broker that opens around 5pm, the strategy would be what?

Thanks CM - so far FXDD is my best bet because they do micro a/c's, open at 5pm and have competitive spreads.

At the risk of sounding facetious, trade the gap to close.

I don't think that you will see a gap at 5pm unless maybe something exceptionally happened during the weekend.
First of all the "gap" has to develope during the first market hours when most of the brokers are still closed.
What I thought is that you want to trade in the direction of the initial trend and then, after two hours or so, open a countertrend position for the gap to close

So I've done some more digging and MB Trading is undoubtedly the best option for me: they open at 5pm, they have the lowest spreads out of all the retail brokers I've seen (usually 0-1 pip on EURUSD which may go up to 2 pips on market open), and best of all they do micro accounts so I can get back into gap trading with a small live a/c. I also called them today and they're v helpful on the phone and seem to know what they're up to. And they bank with JP Morgan Chase in the US so no foreign bank a/c funny business. They charge $2.95 commission each way per standard lot - which is 2.95 cents per micro lot which when added to the low spread is still better than the other retail brokers I've seen.

So it looks like we have a winner -- I just need to go and make some money now LOL!

EDIT - and I forgot to mention that they opened a live a/c from scratch for me within 3 hours!!! I just uploaded my docs and bank it was approved pronto.

I have been with FXDD for over 3 years. I always liked their liquidity and fast response. But the main thing I liked about them was their fixed spreads. Not any more. This week's opening hours had crazy spreads. The U/CHF was at 15, 10, 7 - all over the place. Now it is back (4 hours after opening) to the normal 4-5 pips. The E/U was between 4 and 6 pips and now is back to the normal 2-3 pips. What is going on?

Fx solutions is a SCAM on this gap story. As they will know the prices & start adjust their positions ( they are a market maker ) for 15 minutes before allowing customers to trade or before they fire their STOPS !
