Hi,

for ECN accounts, you open and close 1 Lot, you get $1.8 back, that is $0.9 per side.

we get $2/lot from ICM, and send 90% back to traders.

{quote} Interesting. VPS was for 15 lot volume, this one 20 lot volume.... Soon live support chat will come at 3 lot volume too Joke aside, I qualify easy enough, but the 20 lot volume will be restrictive on many traders, so what the point? Of course, the webinars are free for all....though useless.
Have you encountered transactions history manipulation with this broker?

{quote} Have you encountered transactions history manipulation with this broker?
not.
time to time some execution issues, that usually is "my fault". even when i am using their own sponsored VPS, where 3 accts make money, one delayed and lose...
they update the VPS for free of charge from the basic, but never ever tried to credit back something for me, accepting that they had issues.

guess it just happens time to time, nothing work flawlessly really, the nature of things. i am overall profitable,and so are all the related accounts.
when it comes to ICM, in my opinion it is one of the better one, overall. the reason i use it for 4th year as my main broker.

Excessive Rollover Rate
Hi folks,
Last two days I have had excessive rollover rates charged to all my open trades on cTrader. I only trade XAUUSD. They are charging TEN times the normal rollover. Can anyone confirm that the swap rates on their platform is also inflated around the same amount?
Cheers,
Frank

This is from my ICM live MT4 account.

I don't trade Gold, but it looks like it should be about -$5.88 / 100oz

yep, that's what they quote on the cTrader too. Look at Pepperstone's rates -$0.73 on the long and $0.37 on the short. I will get some more tomorrow when I ring around and get rates from others, but I am yet to be convinced that ICM rates reflects "the wider market". I think it reflects a disincentive to place obvious long trades at the moment with gold. It would kill any position trader plan in no time.

PS., Hey Coder, what are they quoting on the MT4 for the swaps on the USD index? Is it just as significant in price, but in inverse?

At what lot size is it better to switch from standard to ECN?
Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.

there you go.
start with EU 0.1 spread + 7$ lot comm = 0.8 pip cost...vs 1 pip on standard...etc.
if one trade frequent these add up, and quickly.
a reduced commission to 5.5$/lot accelerate it further.

It says 3.5$ commision

How did you calculate that? Can you write me the calculation for 0.10 lot for EUR/USD?

this should be probably in the rookie talk, judging...

the base commission at ICM is 3.5$/lot PER SIDE....you buy something and then sell something....each trades has 2 sides....thus your cost of commission will be 3.5$ x 2 =7$/lot volume traded. (just to add, 1 lot =100.000 unit of its based currency.)

to suit you, 0.1 lot, the commission is 0.70$ / round turn ( buy and sell).

ICMarkets, like pretty much all brokers has IBs, that can offer some commission discount or rebate.
one such common one at ICM is approx 21% comm. fee reduction, or an effective cost of 5.50$/lot round turn...

and that is 0.55$ if you trade 0.1 lot volume.
there is always, always another trade!!
