I've heard about Oanda for some time and finally decided to check out their demo.

It's OK as long as you don't need any fancy indicators.

What really surprised me was the spreads. I normally trade GBP/JPY and Oanda's spread was 4.7 when IBFX's was 9! That's a big difference, especially when you're scalping.

The other things that I like about Oanda are no minimum account size and micro lots (great for testing systems with minimal expenditures).

I may go live with them after all.
