Cheers, will have to see if my account is still open or If I need to apply again. Would be interested to see if their live MT4 has improved.

Other brokers on my list are Darwinex and Varianse, planning to stick a bit of cash in each to test them out.

{quote} None. They all are scam, fake brokers.
Why do you think they are all scams? I'm in particular interest on the IC Markets and Pepperstones as I have live account with them and they are both have offices in Melbourne (where I"m from)

That said, OP, as part of my research; i did compare their live spread side-by-side (running both platform together) and they are both extremely similar. I trade on the EUR/USD as it very tight spread though Pepperstones (razor account) appears to have a slightly higher commission per trade, if you do lower volume.

never heard of Rakuten, quick look at it appears to be Market makers broker and not STP/ECN type of broker. I actually quite annoyed with broker that says 'no commission' when in reality the commission is accounted in the spread.

I think you just need to work out the volume vs amount of $ commission you going to pay. Some broker charge per trade, some charge in the spread and some mixes the two. some charges swap some doesn't.

if the spread of 0.5pip, 10 trades (at 0.1 lot) = 5 pips [EUR/USD 1pip=$10 ] hence $50
if 0 spread at the same trade volume (but charge $10 per std lot) = $10

Happy to be corrected if I am wrong

EURUSD - 0.1 lot is $1 per PIP, not $10, 1 lot is $10 per PIP.
The way I see it 0.5 pip spread + no commission is the best deal U can get...however - never used Rakuten or know anyone that has...0.5 pips is great for scalpers

Rakuten AU

sir did you use this broker is i a good broker ?
Out of those mentioned, I have traded with hotforex earlier. Everything was good until they started manipulating the spreads and when I asked the customer support about it. No replies. So I closed my account and moved on. Currently am with Coinexx. So far they are amazing, I trade on near zero - 0.3 on majors + $2/lot commission. And the withdrawals have not been an issue neither have noticed any spread widening since i started.

{quote} What does LMAX means ? and (or based ) means ? here
"Based" simply means: Partners or IBs (Introducing Brokers) of Lmax.

But be careful, some claim they are (FX Open) but in reality they are just scam/scum.
LMAX is good

I've already given the answer to your question in page 1 and i just called them for what they are.

IC markets is a big fake/scam broker, i would never trade serious money with them.

But i really don't care whomever you finally go with, it's not my money.
