FXopen has ECN right.. Saw it on their website and new offer..

If so, the mini deposit to open acct is just USD1? Is this true?

1.Take your USD open acc 2 with Oanda, one in USD another acc in EUR.
2. Wire your money to the USD acc (about RM40)
3. Use the acc transfer fund option to do internal transfer between accs to convert your USD from the OANDA USD acc to EUR currency in EUR Acc @ 0.9 pip spread. Thats only 0.00009 USD u nned to pay for conversion. There is no any other hidden fee, just 0.00009USD. The only other fee is when u wire you money back using fxglobal transfer Oanda charge u 30EUR, which is still a lot cheaper than convert directly in bank or money changer because these 2 agent charge u more than 500-1K pip spread for conversion. thats about a full 50 to 100 USD for just 1k USD conversion.

Congratulation you have successfully bypass bank exchange rate, as they are most ripp off place to exchange money. Second goes by money changer. I love exploits

Thanks. man.. Very good advise.. Will definately give it a try.. notworthy.gif

BTW, if i also want to do some trading? Actually never before, just want to experiment abit. Is Oanda still a good choice for both trading and exchange..

Appreciate it.. thanks again
