hey there,
every broker that i’ve looked at seems to be good at one thing but really bad in the other. so far, OANDA has been the best but their 50:1 ratio is a killer.
here are what i would like (if you know a broker that matches the description, or closely matches it, then i would be very grateful if you name it):
i want to start up with �50
at least 100:1 leverage
low deposit and withdrawal fees (a fixed �10 or a 1% fee is fine)
INSTANT execution
good trading platform/MT4 compatible
spreads at 3 pips or lower for major currency pairs
24/5 customer support
fast feed
what a wishlist lol. but anyway, thanks in advance.

oanda may only have 50:1 but it is plenty i do not see why you would need more i have my accounts set up on 20:1 leverage and never come close to using it. But i guess it depends on how you are going to trade.
I will say that i really like oanda i am really happy with the service been trading with them since feb 08.
heh… i found the perfect one – Alpari UK. although the minimum deposit is �200 (i think), there aren’t any deposit/withdrawal fees (apart from around �0.70 from both banks) and so i think i may be able to withdraw �130 OR just keep it there but not use it at all. everything else on that list was a fat tick.
