The regulator is the FSA.

They are quite good. One of the better MT4 market makers. I get good fills in 2-5 seconds. Oanda is better with its instant fills but Alpari is good.

I'm live with them for only about a week, so take my opinion for what it is worth. So far, I like them very much. Quick fills (unlike Xaron above, I'm filled within ~1 sec most of the time), no disconnections so far, spreads don't go wild during most major news releases (the reason that made me leave my previous broker) and price spikes are milder than those I've experienced with my previous broker. FSA is considered to be a dependable regulator, maybe more so than NFA, there have been no complaints there yet http://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/home.do. So far, so good.

Only recently gone live with Alpari UK, doing the occasional trade. Can't complain. I swing rather than scalp. They don't encourage scalping esp during news; can't remember where I read it but something like it takes up to a minute to be filled - fine for swinging à la Jacko's method.

I like the auto trailing stops feature that you can't get with Oanda or IG Index.

Only thing I am not too happy about is trading starts Sunday at 11pm whereas IG and Oanda start at 9pm.

Hello FF,
how difficult is it to open account with Alpari UK
Usual anti-money laundering and liquidity methods: require passport, bank details, recent bill. Pretty quick. Bank transfer was a bit of a hassle but that was more down to Barclays; had to send a cheque in the end which took a week to arrive and clear. That said, the market is always there!

They also have segregated account up to $5000 according to there rep that I have been dealing with. Their swaps rates are not as good compared to IBFX.

There is no such thing. All systems fail sooner or later.

One thing to note, when you fill out the contracts with alpari, they make you sign this thing about signing over your rights regarding the FSA protection, so if they go under I think all the safety that the FSA offers is useless because of the contract they make you sign, maybe I don't understand it, but that's how the contract appeared. Apart from that I've heard good things about them from a friend with them, and this is alpari UK.

Mr Smith

Since you like to ask for proof, may be you could prove to us that you have a strong system. But as usual, I suspect that you will never provide proof yourself but ask it from others.
Anyway, good trading my friend !!!
