Hi all, since market is slowing down.. After Oanda kept spread 10 pips for 25 minutes today I decided to change broker. What do you suggest between FXCM, IG Markets and ActivTrades? I would consider fast execution, reliability of broker (no bankrupt risk), chart precision, software (desktop and app), and withdrawal speed. Thanks to those will give me good advice Edit: I trade only eur usd so i dont care of what's spread on commodities, equities etc
I used to use Oanda as well and I have swapped over to IG, my only bad experience with them thus far is that their server stopped working once in the middle of the day and thus SLs and TPs and basically everything stopped working and you had to manually call in to close your trades. As such, if you are swapping over to IG, make sure they have a local office number to call to instead of having to call one of their overseas branch (overseas calls are expensive which just adds extra hurt if the trade was in a loss), if there isn't one in your country then that might be a problem and it would be best to check with them what you would have to do in such a situation.

With regards to spread they are WAY better than Oanda in my experience with them, this doesn't mean "fast execution" in all scenarios though, for example if you wish to execute or close a trade and its gotten so wide that it exceeds the normal 0.6-0.7 they actually won't let you and instead have a confirmation pop up with a new quote offer on it which you can choose to take or decline. This "sort of" protects you, but i believe you have to change some things in the settings which I don't remember sadly. Just ask their personnel to help you they are rather friendly, at least the local branch (Singapore) generally are, not sure about overseas branches. Hope this helps.

Daily S/R Levels

  1. Bulls are trying to stay above 1.0911 and then to break above 1.0935
  2. Bears will try to break below 1.0911 and then also to break below 1.0877
  3. I am also noticing recovering type of bullish pa that could turn 1.0911 into support, time will tell..

Stay Green

Thank you all guys for all the advices.

As Mysyskull is saying spread is really important especially in a scalping scenario. And IG was quite interesting cos they are publicly traded and this means trustful. But I dont really like their android app. So I would lose speedness in the app to gain 0.2 pip per operation.

Honestly I never experienced relevant slippage with Oanda, and to me android app of Oanda is perfect and I trade only from mobile (charts on monitors though ).

But still want to differentiate brokers after what happened yesterday so I will try one of those you suggested with tight spread.

Thanks again for the many advices.

Talking about spread, my pending buy order at 1.0905 was missed by my broker before price took off. How painful is that!

And now it broke. I'm waiting on the 8dayMA to break. If prices stay below it until this afternoon we will have a new record for the year. Doesn't look like we will. If that breaks my short from 1.10621 will close and my first re-entry (short) will be 1.09730.
