Hi triger,

Is there a big difference between demo conditions and real with LGC?

I get an average spread of 0.8 for EURUSD on my demo account (0.3 + fees). Is the same in real?

Thank you.

Never tried their demo, but those figures you provided are quite the same with their live environment.

All the best!

Since LCG in no longer a Prime of Prime Broker, you should discuss this in the thread LCG.

You have to factor in the commissions to have a comparable basis. I've yet to see better spreads than what IG offers through their Forex Direct DMA offering. (1M : 0.1-0.3, 5m: 0.5 - 0.6) but unless you trade over 1bn a month their commissions are way more expensive than their competition at $60/m

To be fair, if you're an active trader, it gets much better. I hear they're quite popular among hedge funds

Monthly Volume >$1500m $10/m
Monthly Volume <$1500m $20/m
Monthly Volume <$500m $30/m
Monthly Volume <$100m $60/m

May be they are popular but after 1 yard should be $5-$6. But who cares, if somebody likes it or may be they provide free subscription for premium porno like a bonus????? )))

Can we rely on Myfxbook spread statistics? Does it shows accurate data or something else intervenes there?
Changing spreads that it shows really make this stats useless as in certain time almost an every broker can offer perfect spreads..
