Disliked{quote} FXCM Must Be in the Dark Ages if it is Taking Ages to Correct Errors! How can anyone justify trading with a broker with such ridiculous charting failures/anomalies/errors? This is all absurd. And "our programmers are working on it. I will let you know...." is equally absurd! Folks, we are in the advanced age of computers. Anything can be done. It is not impossible to marry the necessary components from all liquidity providers into a market data feed to MT4 that will assure proper display of bid and ask prices on the chart and proper...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi AG, Those pairs should be available to you. I see all 3 on my live account and have open trades in GBP/AUD currently. If you are on the Trading Station platform, click on the Symbols button. Then select he Symbols to which you want to subscribe. If your are on the MT4 platform, right-click on the Market Watch window. Then click on "Symbols" in the menu that appears. Select which Symbols you want to Show and Hide.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi Jason, I just talked to Live Chat about this problem(see attached): The gist is that only 18 currency pairs are available for small investors - unless I want to increase my deposit to $10,000, which I do not. I would ask why you did not know this??? Is this information widely available??? If not, why not???Ignored
DislikedHey All, Here's over 30 trades that I tried to make with FXCM today. My actions window shows a green check mark confirming execution of the trades. However not one of these trades actually filled. Finally when one 1k order did fill, FXCM would not let me close the order. FXCM is the liquidity provider on CFD products. Can someone please tell me why FXCM is unable to fill or close 1k trades? What if this was 100k or 1M trade? Be very careful as FXCM is able to manipulate the other side of your CFD trade. {image}Ignored

Dislikedpage 6 FXCM introducing a narrow spread, principal model for smaller clients, while operating within established risk parameters Predominantly trading gains against client losses. so i guess you are using standard account and fxcm having financial problem. i experienced chart manipulate by broker too when win too much but not fxcm. i not going to mention who the scammer broker.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi AG, As my colleague Robert mentioned to you on live chat, it looks like you were set up on our new account type with 400:1 leverage and lower transaction costs. I didn't consider that, because this account option is only available in certain regions. However, I should have noticed from your forum profile that you live in Panama. Since you mentioned that you're not interest in higher leverage and would rather have access to more currency pairs instead, I can help you change your account type without having to add additional funds. Please...Ignored
DislikedJason, One is a EUR denominated account the other is a USD denominated account. Exact same charts, but one is not like the other. I'm sure FXCM can look into this, since they provide the feed. FXCM should also have monitors in place to watch for this blatant manipulation. These aren't two different brokers charts, these are two FXCM charts. Contrasted side by side, exact same time period with data. This is inexcusable.Ignored
DislikedToday i was looking my platform and see that there was many new instruments available. Us shares, Eu shares, Gb shares. I placed a small trade (1 share, like 0,01eur/pip of value) on yahoo. The commissions was around 26 eur (13 to open and 13 to close), clearly it was impossible to make a gain on such trade (you would need around 2600 pips profit just to repay the commission costs). I guess it's all still in beta or something like that, however to the fxcm clients, if you see all these new instruments available for trade on your account, don't open...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Hi Tunera, Thanks for your questions and comments about our new share CFDs. Yes, they are still in beta. We appreciate that transaction costs are important to traders, and so I'm sharing your feedback on the commissions with our management team. Since you traded only 1 share, it's worth noting that there is a minimum charge per order that applies to share CFDs. However, if you traded a larger order size, then the standard commission would apply based on the size of your trade. For example, when trading US shares, the standard commission...Ignored
