Hi,
Has any one having trouble with FXDD platform today? cause mine could not detect internet connection, while I obviously have no problem browsing the internet.
Tried to contact live support but could not get through.
Any info?
Thanks

Yes..i also got that free account..and working very good...no problem...i am thinking of shifting my other broker account to FXDD....order execution is good.
Also gold and silver trading available on FXDD.
they are not regulated, so they can scam your money by not transferring back to u

Well they wouldn't stay in business very long if they did that. And regulated or not, if they do something illegal they are still subject to US law. Also, regulation isn't going to stop you from being scammed; are plenty of crooked brokers who have a nice NFA license. FXDD's NFA membership is pending by the way...
Anyway, I have an account there, and have never had a problem with withdrawing my money.
I have been with FXDD for a long time, and have never had a problem getting my money. Even when I request a check (It's Free) it didn't take longer than 5 days to receive it. Wire transfers are within 24hrs....It took me longer to deposit money (used PayPal) than to ever get it out....
New Note:
Does anyone here use a broker that is not located in the U.S??....I have always wondered if traders had problems getting money out of these off-shore brokers.
The fact that a broker is registered at NFA, doesnt seems to matter anything for your money...if a broker goes belly-up...they will go belly-up, registered or not...you can complain all you want...
FXDD is currently pending NFA membership...
Anyway...Im using Currenex at FXDD and Im more then happy...very tight spreads and great fast execution...when market is thin I will see that too...In fact, I shifted more money in...
Only problem is avg. size is 3M in normal market...liquid market gives 5M size.
You dont trade with (market-made) MT4 anyways...STP is the way to go...

FXDD's Currenex is brutal... along with their commissions for it.

FXDD's Currenex commission isnt "brutal", in fact, it is way better than MBT.
ie, commission for:
1.00 Lot EURUSD, MBT = $13, FXDD CNX = $4
1.00 Lot GBPUSD, MBT = $14, FXDD CNX = $5
Spread wise, hmm, this is tough one. However, one thing I noticed with FXDD CNX is that, my offers and bids are not showing at their L2. Which makes me wonder if its artificial CNX. ie, I placed a 100K volume (1.00 lot) Limit Sell, between the BID and ASK, yet it is not showing. If it was on MBT, it would show even if my volume is a small 10K.. something is fishy in here.
BTW. Havent you heard? FXDD has "re-extended" the 3% deposit bonus anew! It was initially DEC 25, then extended to Jan 16, and now re-extended to Feb 27.... They could really be in bad need of MONEY!
WHO KNOWS? Maybe, after Feb 27, they would "re re-extend" this deadline to MAR 31 2009!!

My limits get filled 'at best price', so its not showing...
Indeed spread wise Im doubting once in a while... but a check at other CNX brokers, FXDD has the tighest in general.

Okay,
Why are you comparing commissions with MBT? MBT is the highest for all ECN's that I am aware of. Where I trade Currenex, I do a lot of volume, but I a pay a lot less. With no volume requirements, the company I trade CNX with starts at 20/M which is the equivalent of $2 per 100K. The spreads on FXDD's currenex are not as good as most. Not every currenex hub is set up to trade in between the spread.
I guess burgerking is quoting commissions per roundturn (because $13 for eur/usd is in and out at MB Trading). That would make fxdd $20/mm too, if BK didn't confuse anything.

Which CNX broker do you advise with low spreads? I get avg. 0.5 - 0.7 spread on EU (high volume market give me 0 to 0.3) with $20 commission per 1M traded... after 250M it goes to $18...

You can PM for information, and i do a lot more than 250M, which is very tiny in this market. I pay less than 10/M. I know for 500M or more you can get 15/M or less.

Yes, the numbers I quoted are "round trip" ie, open + close (buy/sell)
At MBT, I need to be at least 1.3 pips to be in net profit (to include the commission) for a EURUSD trade.
But on FXDD's CNX, I only need to be 0.5 pips to be in NET PROFIT.
This is a whole lot easier to make money. 0.5 Pips of profit is alot easier than 1.3 pips!
MBT Platform is alot easier to use than CNX though.

It is just amazing to me that people trade with FXDD at all, let alone use them for CNX. BK you still pay more than most that use CNX because you use FXDD.
