I have been using IBFX for about 6 months now and I am very pleased with them. Customer service is very good everytime I have needed them. Order execution is very fast for me-under 1 second. I cant say anything negative about them. Hope this helps.

I have been with IBFX for 2 years and have been happy with their service. They are not a good company for news trading because they increase their pip spreads at news times at the beginning of a big news story. If you scalp outside of news times, are a medium or long term trader I think you will find them acceptable. They post deposits quickly and usually when I ask for my profits the check goes out the same day or the next day. I like that I can deposit from my credit card or bank card. Many companies cant take credit cards, I assume this is because they dont qualify for credit card services. I also like the way EAs operate on their system. They seem to run accurately, I have found with some companies EAs do not work well with their systems. Trades are slow to get in and profits are slow to be recorded.

I have used Alpari demos but have never used their services. Being from the USA I am more comfortable with keeping my money in the states than sending funds out to a foreign country. Check the requirements of how they pay out to people who live outside their home country. This is why I have never tried out of country dealers. It is harder or more expensive to get my money there and have it returned when I make a profit.

Just some thoughts.

I know its time consuming but the best way to find out if they are good for your trading style is to open an account with either and see for yourself. Before I joined IBFX I read reviews about them hunting for your stops and all sorts of other things. I can say from personal experience that there have been several times that I was 1 pip away from being stoped out (where the price action of a pair was hovering around my stop for hours) and then I had the price finally go in my favor without being stoped out. Other people may have different experiences, that's why its best to try different brokers out for yourself. From my experience if you become a student of this market and find a trading style that fits your personality( btw this can take a while) you will find yourself profitable with most of the bigger well-known brokers. Another option is open an account with both and you will see which suits you better.
P.S. I have only been trading for 3 years and I love this market. It has taught me alot about myself and how I can improve not just as a trader but as a person. I am a student of the market and will continue to be one for the rest of my life. Good luck and happy trading.
