Hey jleblang, very nice new site.

I want to ask if you have accounts in euros?

And if you dont have, do I have to make my euros to dollar at my bank and then deposit them to the MB account?

That means I have to pay a really big (3%) commition. And pay that again if I make a withdrawl from the MB account. (dollars to euros)

Thanks. Happy 2009.

Nice job guys. Really clear and clean site. And META! I figured that was coming eventually. I'm not a big fan of Metatrader, but you guys should rock the world with it.

That is great news. I never understood why they didn't do that earlier.

Technically to provide MT4 support all they need to do is pay a licensing fee for the server and hook it up to their liquidity providers. (I doubt the licensing fee was the issue)

ATC did it, so now we know it's possible to hook up ECN. In fact I was ready to move to ATC, but now I may reconsider.

Is there an ETA for this?

I got on their chat last night and they setup a demo for me. Fully operational. Gonna test me EA on it this week. - They have to setup the account - you can download the MT4 from the website then they give you a useraccount and login password.

nope. the rep created the account and added the desired balance while I was online with them (they let you pick your own master/investor password and $$) - then gave me the server number to use with the downloaded mt4 terminal.

I'll be testing my EA on it this week but I expect problems. the chart is FULL of data gaps and the history only goes back to Dec 18 for strategy tester. (PLEASE fix this! - I know, I know, its in Beta)

I realise that for every 10,000 contract u make for eur/usd which is equivalent to $1usd per pip, u have to pay $6.67usd for entry and $6.67usd for exit which adds up to be about $13usd which is equivalent to 13pips and adding up the spread mbtrading charge, we are paying like 15-20pips spreads per trade. Does this make any sense? How are going to profit like this?

Asian guy, you are wrong. That commission is for a contract with a notional value of $100,000. For a $10,000 EUR/USD trade, your commission is about $1.30 round turn.

Unfortunately at this time MB does not accept accounts in EURO's, and therefore you would have to exchange your money with your bank prior to sending us your funds.
