Till now well done MBtrading
I'm testing ur MT4 demo with my live account with another broker and another demo with other broker and You doing great exection and no requotes No spike AT News time
But in Live account with MT4 does it same like demo with "Spreads-lot size"?
What are the diffrence between demo and live Justine?

Thanks
egkid,

Thanks for the comments.

For starters, the live trading environment is typically much more stable than the demo. We test all changes/updates in demo first before moving them to the live servers. This can results in the demo going down, clearing data unexpectedly, strange fills, and so on. It's been the same way on the Navigator for years, but it's also the same reason you don't hear complaints about our live environment.

Additionally, in the demo you're not interacting with the other customer orders and therefore the spreads at times might be slightly higher. When trading live, you'll be receiving liquidity from our banks and customer orders placing bids/offers between the spread.

Dear Justin i have another question
how can protect my account if something nuts happen and click order and spreads became 40 pip? You now it change each second?

I've never seen our spreads going 40 pips wide that I can recall, but limit orders should help.

I'll second that.

I want three things from a broker:

  1. Execution
  2. Stay out of the way (no funny stuff)
  3. Help me when I need it.


I get that in spades with these guys. Two thumbs up.

In case anyone is interested, NeoTicker is integrated to MBT. NeoTicker is good stuff, and you can use either MBT or eSignal for a feed.

I've tried several brokers over the past few years.

For individual traders, MBT is as good as it gets. Oanda would be my second choice.

Then you can move us a scale and go for Interactive Brokers, or (fee-based) TradeStation. But with IB you are not gonna get the same intuitive platform or the same customer support as with MBT.

If someone is not happy with MBT, stop bitching around, close your account with them and go elsewhere (drop a line here when you decide to come back ).

Justin, thank you for doing a great job here! ...
I'm pretty much done with all this ...

MB Trading is a great broker. I have used them for equities, futures, and now forex. Deposits and withdrawals have never been a problem. I've been with them over 2 years and traded full-time with them, platform stability is fine for a professional trader. With the exciting addition of a Live Beta MT4, there is certainly no better true ECN broker. Just my 2 cents.

It's great that MT4 is open to the public, but I personally still opt to open a live Navigator account sometime in the next couple of months.

Now that MT4 is out there, has the live Navigator environment, functions, or registration been changed in any way?

Will people still be able to sign up for Navigator and utilize it the same way as they would have before instead of MT4 if they so wish? I'm quite comfortable with the platform and also don't want to start using excessive system resources by switching to a different one.

And will new Navigator sign-ups at this time also be subject to a longer wait period due to the projected number of high MT4 applications? Or is signing up for Navigator faster/easier than for an MT4 account?

When it all comes down to it, I just don't want to have to complicate things by switching out of something I'm already comfortable with.

Also, I'm a bit confused as to which exactly is the current minimum trade value? Is 1 lot (10,000 units) still the lowest amount you can trade, or are you able to trade 0.1 lots (1000 units)? Before, I thought MB Trading's minimum was 10,000.

Thanks!

Reen,

Are you still having problems? I just logged into my live and demo accounts and could not replicate what you are saying.

Have you tried chatting with someone on Live Helper? https://www.mbtrading.com/contact.aspx
