OK.
Thank you for your reply.
YES.
ALL retail brokers are SCAM.
YES.
We are PUSHOVER.
Who is your broker?
Who pleases you best?
Bye.
All brokers a scamers.
But the regulators even more scamers, they take big money from the broker to provide them different types of licenses and do nothing positive:-(
So forex is the same casino, but with another dressing.
And How we are going to leave with this knowledge. And it is doesn't meter is it Fxpro, Saxo, FXCM, Paxforex or ...(put here any company that you trade, like or promote). It all doesn't matter.

Pls, Do yourself a favour and DO NOT open an accounts with Market Maker! Go for ECN or STP it is much better choice!
Price = the amount a greater fool is willing to pay!

After a couple of years with Alpari (who were ok) I've switched over to FxPro to try out their cTrader ECN..had enough of MMs! The spreads and liquidity are ok but I only trade Kiwi against pound, euro and dollar so know what to expect with bad trading conditions a lot of the time.

Can you recommend other ECNs. Do any of them use cTrader or similar? Ideally I don't want to use only 1 broker and have had bad experiences with demo's in the past - i.e. nothing like the live accounts!

Is FxPro live as smooth as the demo? I suspect it might be as smooth for small lot sizes but would get more requotes and slippage for medium-large lot sizes...

I never though that I will find such a broker that combines everything good that a broker can offer, but here it is: FXCC!
1. ECN with instant MARKET execution - super fast u get what's on the market at that second that you click on the button!
2. low spreads - you choose: commission with spreads less than 1pip (could be 0.1 at times) or no commission with spreads less than 2 pips (commission is actually 1pip)
3. Good leverage up to 200! It is your choice how much u want to bet!
4. Low initial deposit 500$ for opening an ECN account??? not many broker have that, not to mention those who ask for 5000-10000$ or more!
5. You choose MT4 or Currenex (institutional platform that traders with >20000$ use)
6. Regulated broker from the European Union country - Cyprus (I am from Cyprus and due to the regulation here your money are absolutely safe.
7. Excellent customer service

Lastly, I am not related in anyway to them. I am just one happy client of FXCC! And will continue to slander against the market makers, while praise my broker as long everything stays the way it is!

Stay away slippage and re-quotes are terrible. I had many times 4-5 re-quotes before entering at unfavorable for me price!
Not to mention that many users have complained that when in profit the slippage becomes even worse, while in loss everything is ok!

I am not hasty, not at all I did lot of research and couldn't find any other broker that offers this term and requires 500$ min deposit! There are many good brokers, BUT they all ask for a deposit of 5000$ 10000$!

If you know any other broker that has same or better terms with not more than 1000$ deposit I will be glad to check it out

I notice they do not have live support. You may want to choose a broker with live support in case you have some immediate issues and need to be resolved ASAP.

So lets not be so cryptic, whats wrong with fxcc?

I'm surprised if its a true ecn with only a $500 min. But do you have personal experience with this broker?
But on a side note the commish they charge is like 10 bucks a trade on mini lots (if i'm wrong correct me) that is out of line. Finfx is 7 bucks but you need 2500 to open account and they take usa clients. Can't have it all.

You choose if you want 1 pip higher spread or 1$ per mini lot (0.1) or 10$ for 1 lot. It is a little bit above the average commission of 5-7$ per 1 lot, but I can live with it if everything else is perfect (and it is)! And I am sure they will lower it when they get more customers.

Thanks I will have a look at their demos although I've very sceptical of such glowing praises on another brokers thread.

I've been reading a fair bit of negative press on Currenex recently (need to check the other forums) and there are definitely better liqudity agregators out there.

Is the 200 leverage for the ECN?

Surely it is better to be with a broker that also has FSA and ASIC authorisation?

I am not advertising. The guy asked me and I told him! I spent many hours in search of a broker like this one! Commission a little bit above the average but I am happy.
I just can't stand the market makers and their re-quotes + slippage!

Not saying you are and appreciate the intel. Will definitely take a look at them and try the demo out for a couple of weeks then a small live account before reporting back on how it compares to FxPro.

I've never tried FxPro's MT4 but so far (only a couple of weeks so not a big enough sample) the cTrader ECN has been problem free.

Still keen to get feedback on how it compares to other ECNs from anyone who has tried out a number of other brokers??
