Am I seeing this right ? 2016 ?  sweat.gif
AFAIK, LMAX is liquidity provider for FXUnited right ?

it's all about volume at the end of the day.
they are LP to many brokers, but they also take in individual retail trader to trade directly with them on their web platform and/or MT4.
there are few threads in FF about that, just i am looking for malaysian that do.

Are you a new trader or a professional trader?
LMAX is for professional traders and the minimum deposit is 10k.

Use a credit card to fund, unless you have a bank account in the UK.

not a PRO, but i have slightly over 10 years trading exp under my belt smile.gif

currently I am trading with SGD as base currency with another broker, and doing all transactions via my SG bank acc as local (SG to SG) transaction.
LMAX has SGD account, but not local bank account in SG, seems like TT SGD via the SG bank acc is my best option for now. yawn.gif

FX United is sorta blaming their Liquidity Provider (LP) for the current bad spell amongst other reasons. No payment for investors since Aug 2016.

that's sad to know they push the responsibility away...

XM's servers are unable to handle one of my EA's order requests, this is not the first time they ask me to remove the Expert Advisor and/or significantly reduce the frequency of the trades.

[attachmentid=8753473]

Anyone can recommend a good broker that able to handle high frequency trading?

demolationz LMAX will take you in, go through IB (you can find them in FF), the min deposit is 1k USD and get discounted commission rate. smile.gif
they need some documents as part of account opening process for anti money laundering.

not sure, but for account size north of RM100k, i think that interactive brokers is one of the "safest" broker out there now.

Today i learn a lesson from some fishy broker. I had my problem with this BDSwiss. They offer binary option. In 1 day i turn my 500usd to 1.7kusd. Then they refuse to pay me. Then i put maximum buyin for their 60sec binary option and i clearly see that i had won. Then they fabricate the data as win become lose. Then i write to them they tell me i cant compare their data with other source data.(Macam slap their own face that theirs are fabricated data)

tell them u going to escalate to NFA and FSC.
if they don't resolve the matter, go file a complaint.

i didn't know our bank charge you for filing dispute as i did mine few times with MBB, OCBC and PBB (for other reasons), and all were FOC.

I have heard many people are using Fxprimus without any problem. If your capital is small, should not be a problem.
If you insist on going big, then I recommend LMAX.

finally see people mention LMAX. thumbsup.gif thumbup.gif rclxms.gif

i use LMAX too.  They are very good in term of speed and major pair spread.  I trade with my own ea on gold and so far i have no complain, although since they are the "real" deal compare to other shady one, the spread is kinda crazy during news and data time.  The spread is 2 edge sword during news time.. you might earn extra or you might lose it more.
*
one bad thing about LMAX is their swap... really cut throat kaw kaw bangwall.gif
other than that, everything else is pretty good.

To me the swap is more like a additional spread, i trade with gold usually and LMAX gold swap long is -15.92 per lot so that is about 1.59 pips of spread to me regardless of the trade size.  If you hold a loss trade for a week that is about 8 additional pip i need to gain to break even.

But then i dont hold trade overnight anymore so im cool with the swap  biggrin.gif
*
that's correct thinking, since it doesn't has any negative impact to your trading style, that's good! rclxms.gif
side note that is gonna be 11.13 pips per week, will kena a triple swap on Wednesday ma....
