Oanda spreads outrageous, who else would be reliable?

I’m going to open an account With about $500. I’ve heard oanda is reliable but many of their spreads are around 10 pips. Is this normal for them? Who are some other reliable brokers?

Cannot be. I’m using oanda and it’s about 1.1 to 1.4 pips

depending on the time when you trade, it can go up to 10 pips for a short period of time, but usually it is between 1-2 pips.

Thanks for the reply guys. I see the spreads are pretty much normal now. And I’m glad because I really like oanda.

yap i like oanda too. i use the mobile app to trade.

I’m hopeful of being able to trade for my main source of income. Time will tell.

I love oanda platform. N the service they provide. In singapore oanda is controlled by singapore MAS. So meaning it trustworthy. Singapore people all scare to die… Lol as long as anything gov involved means it safe n good. Wahaha

I use Fullerton Markets. The spread is 2-3 pips for a variable account. And way less for an ECN account. It uses the MT4 platform and available on mobile too.

Im an Oanda fan as well. Haven’t had any issues with them at all.

I went with Oanda. I’m happy with them so far. First week trading. Made 132 pips so far

Can anyone tell me why my sell stop triggered?

I think the price touched the stoploss after counting in the spread of 1.4pips (guessing from your screenshot), thus the stoploss was triggered.

Sorry i dunno how to explain it any better.

I think maybe you’re right. After looking back at it. Thanks for the response.

I’ll try not to commercialize any broker here. But so far, I had heard really good news about TickMill. Probably you should give em a try ? :grin:
