Alright, we need a new law here. Can we have a more meaningful discussion then just showing off? Newbies dont learn anything by READING how much u made. Be more constructive and contribute to RELATED studies that will help lyn members to execute a trade.

If this showboating persists, i will have to report to the mods. This is a DISCUSSION room, not a place to hang out and show off your winnings.

fully support AdamG, ur winnings and losing is irrelevant to other forumers, post more information that will help in our trade.

I personally discourage people from using fxcm now due to the new ruling which eliminates stop loss. The removal of stop loss begins on the 1st of August 2009.

I would recommend oanda. but oanda charting abilities suck but on the plus side the spread is SUPER LOW (I have seen spread for Eur/USD as low as 0.5 pips) and no requotes at all. I use mt4 to chart.

FXCM UK <--- yes you still have stop loss and hedging etc for this one. But not on FXCM US

@those wanting to open an account to trade FX
I would advice you people to open accounts with brokers that are regulated. Ensures peace of mind.

Fxopen hav one advantage and one disadvantage for me

Adv - we can use maybank online banking to fund our account, whereby transaction cost is very very very very low
Disadv - not regulated

So, if you are not trading very big, I can say fxopen is ok for you.

Erm, I hav differnt opinion with you. If you are start small, something like USD 20-50 as a learning process. You can go for fxopen as it provide maybank online banking service.

Bcoz if you juz wan to start with usd50, then you go use alpari-uk, the credit card funding process already nid you to pay USD 25 already le.

If you want to trade big, surely go for regulated.

Add-on:
and Even is the broker really wan scam your money, they also wont go scam your USD20-50. Some more fxopen is quite ok de.

I agree with mphpopular on his points. Funding in USD20-50 into a regulated broker usually requires wiring. Wiring fee and other administration cost will cost roughly USD25-35 in total and if ur funding such a small amount it is not worth it.

I personally agree with mphpopular . With small amount of $$, live trading experience could be gained. The maximum risk is only that few-tenth dollars. If want to trade big, of cause, I also will choose for regulated one.
