Default WYSIWYG Brokers

Hi all, can any of you guys recommand a reliable online firm with WYSIWYG and nice trade platform please? I have already checked 10+ sites and only ACM offers WYSIWYG unfortunately which would be a good choice if their mini account pread rate wasnt 4..... I have finished the entire babypips course system and have had some practice on Metatraders 4 demo account so I think maybe It's time for me to try out a live mini account. Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Firstly, what does WYSIWYG mean?

I have not seen that abbreviation before.

But I do not understand the question fully.

If it means guaranteed price with maket orders like Forex dot com advertises, then there are none. The broker above will just tell you invalid price if the market moves. A fancy term for re-quote.

Ah Ha! Thanks, Mytwopips.
Yeah - I thought there was something fishy.

With a company like that, you would want to read the legals very closely.

Some time ago, I attended a stock market expo here in Perth. I was given a very colourful and extensive brochure by CMC markets.

I read the whole section on forex - sounded beautiful. Then read the legals, I ran and dumped the whole thing in the rubbish bin so that I could never retrieve it.

Re-quote was one of the main words right throughout the legals!

WYSIWYG is very helpful for news events since no slippage to ruin your trades.

I have already contacted Forex dot come and they are not WYSIWYG unfortunately

So could anyone be kindly and recommand a reliable firm that uses WYSIWYG besides ACM please?

Thanks in advance
