Default Beggin' Your Pardon...

I'm not yet a seasoned trader, and I haven't ran the gauntlet of brokers to see who's the best, but I'll say I've heard good things about Oanda. I'm running a demo account with them now, and the man who got me into the Forex is still using that service. I believe he's been talking about opening an account with something called VT Trader as well (they have some options he likes, or something), but he says even if he does, he'll still trade with Oanda as well.

The biggest complaints I've heard about them so far is the lack of a four hour chart (not an issue for me) and the lack of automatic trailing for stop losses (again, not really an issue for me, at least not yet).

Talking Have you tried. . . .?

Have you tried FXsol? You can trade $1000 lots, I forget if thats mini or micro or whatever. They allow multiple choices of leverage up to 400:1. I've traded with Oanda and when I go to trade with a 100:1 broker like EFXgroup with a $400 account minimum and trade $1000 lots on up, the gains and losses( I was in a slump) are mindboggling. Its difficult to switch mindsets with all these different leverages.
Enjoy, may you breed many babypips for your accounts.
Are you up on what to expect at tax time?

i tried forex.com and fxcm.com fxcm seems to be a solid platform with minimum problems... forex is alright and got great commentary but may be blocked on some firms firewall and sometimes it freezes ...
