FXCM US uses Bank of America. Can we choose to open account with FXCM in other countries other than US?
*

FXCM US branch For USD account use Bank of America only. If you open Eur/GBP or other currency in USA branch they still use HSBC.

Yes u can open acc in FXCM UK or other branches. I suggest u go and check their website/ deposit fund & get the clearer picture.

I've asked the Help Desk of FXCM before regarding this, they mentioned that FXCM is coming up with their own Metatrader this season.
In the website, it mentioned it was supposed to be last January, guess they still have some bugs to fix (now testing mode).

QUOTE(billytong @ Feb 3 2008, 12:33 PM)
If you are going for FXCM, open HSBC acc, they are base on HSBC bank.(except FXCM USA branch for USD which is base on Bank of America) I like this because I dont get interbank fees charged when my money go there. I tried UOB and bankwired to my FXCM acc, I dont get the exact amount I bankwired, they had minus some money just to transfer between diff banks.  mad.gif
*



HSBC if open acc if not mistaken need loads of money.. issit true?

how much money did they minus if transfer from other bank?

i've submitted my details for fxcm.. now waitin its metatrader... hmm.gif

Define what your 0.1 lot is? if 0.1 lot = 10000 = 1 mini lot, then it is 1 pip = $1. So whats the problem there? Unless you mean micro lot.

Of course it is not the same. Try comparing other broker as well.
This because of the spread and price data feed they get are a bit different.

First of all, I dont use stop loss, because I can easily make back the money I loss should I take wrong direction trades. I have close a few trades that go -negative 100 to 600 pips then come back with profits when EU come back down. But then thats my style of playing. I only take loss when I think I should. For news, it is either I take a trade @ good price b4 the news or when I see some opportunity 5-30minutes after the news, I usually dont take a trade WHEN the news come out. And what is PO?

Like I said in Long term GU is going down.BOE will be cutting rates. But I dont play GU much + the USD is still crap, FED also cutting rates so both GBP & USD is weak.
So @ 1.96xx I wasnt confident to short it. But if above 2.00 YES, GU isnt worth more than 1.97
