You are welcome!
I haven’t used them either…
They are a NFA regulated broker for what I know, and given all the changes NFA is making (no stop loss orders and no hedging) I would suggest you look for a non US broker…

Hi alll....

I trade with WSD, they are NZ based Brokers and are even regulated which ensures safety of funds..........they are offering MT4 platform which is user friendly to trade on and also have recently launched their retail trading platform which offers trading in OIL....

I am very comfortable with their speads which they offer on the platform ..

so all you FX traders go ahead and try them out ...

ACM is dangerous their offices were just raided by police a couple of months ago for frauds and money laundering cases.

As for me now i am looking at OANDA what do you think guys? Is it good and what is the minimum deposit can we put to trade in there? Please advice from your experience not common sense lol

hi all
i was "investigating" which broker to open live account with for almost a year, while trading on demo accounts. the more i was looking in, the less i knew which to pick
i ALMOST choose fxPro, but some bad stories (about withdrawing money) turned me off, so i crossed my fingers and choose alpari (thanks to opinions on this forum).
i think they're ok. most of the time orders are filled the way i want (didn't have missed orders), but as soon as a more volatile period comes, and price changes faster few requotes happen (which is, i think, also ok, since the time i managed to push the button, price was already up/down more than 1-2 pips - i guess no one is mad to take my request on one price, and the change is significant). i'm trading live with them for a month now, and my balance is 25% up (micro-lot trader on standard account for now).
so, if they don't deserve to be in top 10, i think they deserve to be at least runner-ups.

hope this helps someone

1) I never heard of WSD, are they a new broker? What do the letters mean?
2) ACM is not dangerous; it wasn’t a money laundering case. I trade with them, it was a guy that lost a bunch of money and blamed ACM for that, which it’s stupid, of course…

But the ACM case was a big issue until the police involve and raided their offices. Many items and documents were taken for investigation. And i didn't follow up with the story since then, because i am staying away after reading all that bad stories.

ACM is never again !! Never

By the way a client will not do such stupid thing if they don't feel cheated in some ways.
