I've found two rebate companies who can give me $4 or $5 for majors (round trip), so that would be $4 ($6.5 - $5/2) per standard lot. pepperstone's commission isn't cheap, USD$3.76 - USD$0.75/2 rebate, which is about $3.40 per standard lot. ctrader is just 60 cents more expensive

ctrader gives much tighter spread on almost all pairs, and their developers are also very responsive and helpful. I have been emailing them with feedback, suggestions on the platform, they responded every of my email within 24 hours.

i like pepperstone, but their platform...

Thanks buddy check PM

how is your experience trading CFD with GFT. I was thinking of opening an account with them, but then i did some research, there are lots of complaints about their forex platform.
Yeah not a real fan, I trade FX through them years ago then noticed they offered CFD's but have to say slow execution and spreads not the friendliest out. It was my first run at a different medium to FX as I wanted to trade Commodities as well as the option for other mediums. The only upside to GFT was the charting which was easy for me to use and you could make trade changes on the chart which I haven't really seen elsewhere but then again after being with Oanda for years I would have to say that my exposure has been limited.

My advice is that there must be better options out there. With GFT I just never got settled on their spreads which for some common pairs where well above the norm found everywhere else.

that's my assumption with gft as well... they are market maker after all.

i like their ipad app though, clean & simple chart with fibonacci tools.

Despite that I actually made money with them early on in my trading endeavour but I doubt my account showed up on the radar. I am accustomed today to running multiple feeds just in case something freezes up. So far I am pretty happy with Pepperstone, still getting used to the commissions but they work out comparable with a few others I have looked into. Execution on multiple standard lots is quick (no hang ups yet), the only gripe I have is the size of the print on the side scale (amount) being small. I trade on a large screen in my living room but even on that it is difficult to make out the numbers which when you planning a trade and working out the details it takes time and in this game time can be the difference in some cases to taking trades. With other platforms I could always bolden or enlarge the number font to a reasonable size. Apart from that I am happy so far.

BTW Trading the Edge not the former Razor account so I cannot compare as I was put straight on the edge. Will let people know if there are any issues.

i just started using the edge razor (upgraded from the regular razor account).

i installed the mt4 setup from the download area and seems to respond slower. it freezes a second or to before responding.

anyone else noticed this?

Try restarting the computer first, sometimes a setup process hangs when it's installed.

I wouldn't put DOM windows on all charts either, just the chart you're actively going to trade.

It'd odd, some people are having no trouble at all while others are having issues with the DOM app chewing up CPU.

I have it running fine (<4% CPU utilization) on one install, but ~20% on another. I'm trying to figure out the difference myself.

i'm sorry what are DOM windows? i already restarted my laptop a couple of times.

i only have one chart window open with 3 moving averages. when i shift time frames (ie, 4H to D1) mt4 freezes for about 3 seconds. when i drag/drop a new currency pair on the chart window it freezes even longer.

If it's just MetaTrader, that doesn't sound right at all. Try reinstalling it.

Got an email from Pepper support about the DOM.. been bugging them about it (mine hasn't worked quite right since the launch.)

They fixed the issue with the DOM not populating with data for some people. It involved updating the app itself.

Existing users can either grab chat support and ask for them to email the update installer that fixes the issue, or do a fresh install of the platform from the MT4 installer now found on the site.

I just did the update installer method myself and it works instantly now. Woo!

Uninstalled then reinstalled with the updated package from the website - no luck.

I must not be 'edgy' enough to hang with the cool DOM traders

I'll get in touch with support.....

Yeah, contact support. It went from being hit and miss to loading within a few seconds of starting MT4 for me.

All right,

Account switched to Edge, check.
Informed my rebate provider of my switch, check.
A bit better spreads (0.1 - 0.2 avg), check.
Execution flawless so far, check.
Making money through Edge, check.
Bought a new Android phone with unlimited everything plan, check.
Being happy so far, priceless!

Yeah, anyone want to buy a used unlocked HTC pro 2 world phone?

Not digging the Android app very much, though. Well, at least it’s good for backup.

Android Edge server for standard accounts is Pepperstone-live.

Happy trading!
