Hi, many brokers we can use, most of them are offshore brokers, but I cannot find one with such lower spreads with indices and oil

I have swissquote accounts, will use this one for the safe of funds.

TWS is too complicated for me, and the leverage is something low, and not easy to deposit and withdraw here

IB has better spreads and lower swaps than Oanda but it has an atrocious platform that isn't trader friendly.

If you mean Interactive Brokers and you live in the USA, you need to have 10 million to trade spot forex with them.

Only 4 choices in the USA.

Forex.com (Gain Capital)

IG

Oanda

TD Ameritrade ( I think they are still independent)

{quote} Been trading offshore with "unregulated" brokers for 6+ years. I do not experience any cheating, tricks, ridiculous spreads, admin fees or anything OANDA customers experience. Not trying to be argumentative, but put down the OANDA Kool-aid for a minute, they are one of the biggest scam brokers I've seen. They just hide it behind "regulation"
Hey there,

Did you mention which "unregulated" broker that was you used that accepts US clients? If you don't want to make it public, shoot me a message.

Thanks,

I have been using Oanda for 15 years and had many secondary brokers that were crap. Oanda might not have the lowest spreads and the lowest swaps but forex brokers that have low spreads and the low swaps usually don't make enough money to offer good support and many of them end up bust. At the end of the day you pay for what you get and I prefer paying more to get more

Just do some research. I don't recommend anyone. I'm only saying there are way better conditions than what are offered by what I consider horrible choices in the US.

When you say get more, what exactly are you "getting". Once again, you're situation is different, you are with Oanda Canada and although everything else still sucks atleast your funds are protected. In the US, you get all the horrible conditions PLUS the benefit of no funds protection.

Actually, I'm going to stay out of this thread. If you guys think these are the best conditions available, that's great. I'm just saying the US brokers think they have you by the balls and treat you as such. They feel they can do whatever they want and you don't have a choice. I'm just saying you do, look around. Like the ad at the bottom SPREADS FROM 0.8. Yeah, that's only on EURUSD and I'm at 0.1, my highest pair is I trade is GBPAUD, I get 2.4, what's OANDA 6-7??? Add that up over the course of a year. Sure I pay commission, it equates to .3 in spread.

Don't blame the platform for not knowing how to trade or recognize when to not trade.

lol, that is the biggest joke I've seen in awhile saying I don't know how to trade. I said I wouldn't post here any longer, but couldn't resist. I have been a VERY profitable trader for 10+ years. If you do not believe what I say about Oanda, it's really very simple. Just read through this thread, it offers example after example of what I'm speaking about. I guess NOBODY knows how to trade. Just look at the financing fees they are charging. They call them financing fees because they can no longer call them swaps. You know why that is? None of your orders actually make it to the market therefore there are no swaps. This is simply a "regulated" bucket shop.
