I think that will be a very big plus for them,because before now most people wouldn't want to commit so much of their hard earned bucks ,on a broker without a strong regulatory agency .Before I opened my first live account ,I earlier wanted to give them a shot but decided otherwise because of the regulatory thing.I think I will have to test their platform once again to make an informed decision on what choice to take going forward.

Trading on news is gambling bro. There is little chance for your order to be executed without slippage especially on MT4 with regular connect. Anybody who say that he successfully trades on news I'm always sure it just 1-2 lucky orders fills which will end with big blowout for sure..
Regarding to the topic I have ECN pro with them with about $6000 balance now. Doing good trades from August and quite satisfied with their platform for CFD trading.
Narrow spreads (also I'm not intraday trader so don't care about that) also receive very nice dedicated support from them (expereinced guy Nathan).
I think Tickmill is doing really good job and FCA license was a big surprise for me. Obviously they are here for long term so it might be worth to stick with them for some time more..

News trading is gambling? How far can this statement go? I trade news on my account with 0.2 using Pepperstone and Oanda with no problem such as slippage or spreads. Trading news is only gambling if you don't know where the chart is going. I'm not lucky, I work in a business.


Please explain this.

I'm not talking about small lots, issues surface when you start to trade with higher than 1 lot. consistently. We can return to this discussion when you increase your stakes where profits start to hit broker pocket

available popularized news trading as gambling, whether you're trading micro-lots or big lots. Just so you know, my friend has a $62k account with Oanda and never has such problems.

Well I stress again - until you are somewhere near breakeven with your trades brokers won't pay attention to your news trading. Or maybe we are talking about different tactics. I mean trading on news release is useless while trading on post-news volatility is a valid strategy. Which type of news trading strategy are you talking about?

Sorry, but its the second one that you mentioned. Like, trading before it announces by knowing the direction.

Here is their swap page https://tickmill.com/accounts/types/ecn-pro/ its for ECN Pro accounts.
Also I have talked with their support regarding FCA protection for existing Non-UK clients, they said traders from all countries are protected by FCA investor compensation program.

JSE TOP 40 or South Africa JTOPI index is offered by Tickmill. I wonder who delivers the liquidity as not many players have access to JSE's futures contracts.

Don't see a problem with that really. Many brokers can act as execution venue, especially OTC ones.

I'm also searching for Tickmill feedback from experienced traders before depositing there more than test amount. It were mostly positive testimonials I got on FF and babypips and their support assured that their FCA licenses ensures traders are protected from broker bankruptcy whenever they are based.
So I guess its safer to go with Tickmill rather and offshore brokers.
