Hello.
I have used the Forex.com for a few months... And heres my personal opinion on why I think its simply the best.
1. Website - What difference on forex.com from a lot of other websites is... the whole website layout. I seriously would never consider applying for a brokerage whose website looks like crap, and bunch of MESS. Forex.com is very simple, and PROFESSIONAL.
2. Platforms - Forex.com offeres Java-Based platform, and also HTML Based platform, and now a downloadable platform which is WAY awesome, but I still stick to java platform because it is SIMPLE, CLEAN, and once again... PROFESSIONAL. I seriously think fxcm platform is a mess, too much black, and I dont like the style.
3. Spreads - People will go all around looking for dozens of brokers... to see which one offers the smallest spreads. Let me tell you this... I think I would rather get a broker with 'medium' spreads, for when I trade, I dont make money trading 6 pips and making money off 3. I simply think its a dumb arguement, because when the market rises 50 pips, those 2 pips that you saved from your broker will not gain you millions... not even enough to consider switching to the broker. That is simply a trashy way to make you want to trade on another broker.
4. Customer Support - Very friendly, almost instant. 24/7 Customer support, I think it beats the rest.
I would give Forex.com 9/10.
More improvements CAN be done, but overall its great, and I think it beats the rest.
Note that this is my personal opinion, and that this is how it works best for me.
