Oanda Forex Platform

Software, Robots and Training Resources

After the change of the runners to runners in search of the perfect, I have gained some experience I can share with novices and people who are thinking of making the currency. Please rememebr that the agent is not perfect, what you choose depends on what your style of negotiation is.

1. FXCM

  • Leverage: 1:100, have recently changed 1:200, which is annoying because you are more likely to receive a margin call.
  • Minimum deposit: $ 25 for micro and $ 2000 for the standard. Although not required, but trade under $ 500!! It is not enough even for the margin, and you will lose everything in a single day.
  • Spread: Medium. Especially during big news events that increase the differentials, but not as much as the other riders. Margin accounts have smaller Micro, but you do not get the online chat service. If you have more than $ 25,000, you can get runs even better.
  • Retirement: Fast. You can chat online and ask them to make your request in front of the line if it is urgent.
  • Regulation: Regulation under NFA. But You can do two way coverage. You may request FXCM UK, which is subject to the NFA regulations.
  • MT4: Yes. Supported by technology from Boston. Transferring their operations to the MT4 trading platform. So sometimes there is a delay. If you want to scalp EURGBP, forget it, too many people are using this service, so you will get bad input prices.

  • Other: You can access a more target = "_blank"> www.dailyfx.com. They also have trading signals, but I do not use them. You can learn a lot from that website, but just do not follow their trades recklessly. Doubt about the performance of the trade analysts.

  • This is the corridor where I am using now. Proper implementation of its platform negotiation. I am a news trader, so performance for news events is very important, the orders are executed quickly, and spreads 10-20 runs are typically 30 seconds before the huge media events.

2. Oanda

  • 50:1 Leverage, not very attractive to retailers
  • Minimum deposit: $ 1
  • Spreads: Good. However, increasing their spreads substantially during press events. Recomment not to press operators.
  • Regulation: NFA
  • MT4: No
  • Recall: it takes time, because do not direct deposit. They use PayPal, which will take another two days before getting the money.
  • Lots of Commerce: A great advantage is that you Oanda can trade mini-mini lot (0.01 standard lot). Thus, the minimum lot is $ 1,000 per transaction size. Other agents are minimum 10,000 (0.1lot) by mini lot. So this is good for traders with small amount of money, like several hundred dollars. Can small business with OANDA.

3. MB Trading

  • 100:1 Leverage
  • Minimum deposit: $ 400
  • Spreads: Good. But small extensions have a price, but will also charge fees. transaction size $ 2.95/10k.
  • MT4: Yes. I never tried. The beta tested for years, and only went live.
  • Regulation: NFA
  • Withdrawal: This is the worst. They will tell you to wait 2 days for settlement of their operations before they can process your order. Within 2 days, you can not negotiate anything, and you also have to close their open positions and if used a lot of margin.
  • Execution: Once I was doing the resale on your trading platform, and I limit orders as TP. The execution it was great. But when I do trade on news spreads also increase a lot, and the execution is not guaranteed. Last year this problem was most prominent. This year is better. But after a bad experience, I do not want to trade with them news.
  • Trading lot: As with Oanda, you can operate the small lot size of $ 1,000 only. It's a plus for MBT.

So I recommend this agent to the people who make resale and normal trade. Trading News may be right now, but at least I will not do them.

4. Forex.com

I have never used the service before. But demos for a long time because they have a fantastic real-time feedback system. It feels like you're a professional. So basically, if you're a beginner, see a big spike in EURUSD, and I know because you have no money to subscribe to the corporate face analysis services such as Reuters and Bloomberg. But at Forex.com 's platform, you can comment in real time, "the ECB has announced ..." So it's definitely worth it for a demo at Forex.com.

  • Leverage: 100:1 and 200:1
  • Minimum deposit: $ 250
