Hello,

i must add one point to my last post. We have to keep in mind, that Forex trading is not easy and the rate of success is relatively small. Hence, people will always blame their failure on their broker making non-sense claims that the latter are betting against them.

To be exact, imagine you and I have two accounts with the same broker. You are short a pair, and I am long the same pair, now who would the broker bet against? you? me? It doesn't make any sense, any broker makes their money through the spreads they charge you and possibly...
You should be aware of this. I got this "Counterparty Disclosure" from the Alpari US site. It reads in part:

"THE FOREIGN CURRENCY TRADING YOU ARE ENTERING INTO IS NOT CONDUCTED ON ANY EXCHANGE. ALPARI US, LLC “ALPARI”IS ACTING AS A COUNTERPARTY IN THESE TRANSACTIONS AND, THEREFORE, ACTS AS THE BUYER WHEN YOU SELL AND THE SELLER WHEN YOU BUY. AS A RESULT, ALPARI’S INTERESTS MAY BE IN CONFLICT WITH YOURS. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN YOUR WRITTEN AGREEMENT OR OTHER WRITTEN DOCUMENTS ALPARI ESTABLISHES THE PRICES AT WHICH IT OFFERS TO TRADE WITH YOU. THE PRICES ALPARI OFFERS MIGHT NOT BE THE BEST PRICES AVAILABLE AND ALPARI MAY OFFER DIFFERENT PRICES TO DIFFERENT CUSTOMERS.

IF ALPARI ELECTS NOT TO COVER ITS OWN TRADING EXPOSURE, THEN YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT ALPARI MAY MAKE MORE MONEY IF THE MARKET GOES AGAINST YOU."

You might just be a newbie and not know these things yet, and that's ok, but I would suggest that at the very least you not start calling people ignorant...
I have been looking for a good mt4 broker that can trade gold since most STP ECN brokers can only trade spot FX. I was with these guys but they are what they are, a bucketshop. I wouldn't trade fx at fxpro. but then maybe i shouldn't trade with them at all, no matter what it is. gonna look at alpari UK
Forget Alpari UK ..its another sucker.... will give u nice execution initially..slowly..u will see the execution giving you time to sleep.
Freezes and shit. I am still thinking about fxpro though!

on mt4?
ForexPro is the company who bought NothFinance, i am with them since i was northfinance before, i have a real live account, no trouble with them and no trouble to withdraw the money, i am Japanese resident, you can withdraw in any currency you want which is convenient as my account is in $ but i prefer receiving yen on my bank.
Spreads are ok, 2 pips (sometimes less) on the USD/JPY, they have fractional pips.
Been with them since July and so far, so good. Execution can be a little slow at times. I hedge some news releases and I have to say they've been very good, my stops have always been hit at their correct level, no slippage.

Only on the FX Trading Station right now.
I had an account, blew it. Closed the account. Nice people, bad luck.....or was it??!!!!!!!!

Cause I trade with MG, did very well
traded with FXYard, did very well and used Ava FX and did well there too cause I used the same strategy. But my strategy did not work at FXpro, I did not care cause it was only 1k. So no biggyyyyyyy
Thinking of opening an account with them within 2-3 days...

nps, and i do understand your position.

as for me, i can differentiate a crappy bucketshop and a decent fx brokerage only after looking at the home page .. experience... *i guess*

i am still with fxpro and everything runs smoothly. awaiting for tomorrows NFPs judgement day literally, just did couple mouse clicks: "buy" e/u

Good luck!

You pay:

4.6 LONG
0.9 SHORT

So you are paying SWAPs with FxPro on BOTH directions
