Yeah I didn't sign up either and have never heard of them.. obviously another broker leaked my number and email address. Should sue for privacy breach and then never have to forex again.

I've used them for 6 months, no complaints at all. Spreads are best in class.

They or one of their employees SELL the client data to whomever they can, the same way they SELL your Stop Losses to trading rooms, when not hunting them themselves, it´s part of their feeding frenzy, guess why Steve*H. has us calling them CRIMINALS! :mrgreen:

Dukascopy Bank SA: This is the one I like the most, but the downside is they don't support Empty4 directly, need a third party bridge. There is an opensource (and free) bridge that works great, but you still need to get dukascopy feed into Empty4, and this seems to be only available through the other third party propietary bridge, which charges an extra fee of 1 euro per traded lot. Currently I am using their demo just for the Empty4 feed, and sending the trades to dukascopy jforex using the opensource bridge. It works, but demos expire in 14 days. [...]
Hy lilac,
you can have the demo at Dukascopy unlimited if you have a real money account there.

Ask them, they can manage that.

All the best,

DukasCopy 1:100 London/NY / 1:50 NYclose / 1:30 6PM Friday (for trading w/out SL it sucks! they say it's the cost of beeing a true ECN!) :(
They do have Swiss 100.000 CHF security thou (better only in 1:30 Canada))

DukasCopy Europe 1:200 (20.000 EUR security of funds)

FTT-fairTradingTech Empty4 INTEGRATED BRIGE with DukasCopy Swiss (1Eur/Lot round turn commission!!!)
Also now demos expire 30 days (but can be renewed OR "Perenial") http://dukascopy-Empty4.fairtradingtech.co ... execution/

FXOpen "ECN" Empty4 also has Dukas price feed, and there must be other white labels!
PS: FXOpen must be a scam CRIM I'm affraid :x

I'm on Bully Pepperstone for the past 9 months without any complains.
Nevertheless this is an "old" Razor ECN account with really very good spreads. On the other hand I opened a new EDGE ECN account and their spreads are significant different (worse) than these of the "old" Razor account. Customer support is trying every now and then to tell me that they are continuously moving liquidity to the new EDGE platform and that I should see even tighter spreads there, but that never happened until today. I'm continuously logging spreads on both accounts and the old RAZOR is always (much) better.
Beside that I'm extremely satisfied with spreads, deposits, withdrawals and support.
For now: forget about EDGE accounts, but the "old" RAZOR accounts are pure gold. Bully Pepperstone is well regulated and your deposits are quite safe.

Cheers,
Andy

Thank you all for the feedback.

Dukascopy lack of direct Empty4 support sucks, I wouldn't rely on the bridges for live trading (disconnections, desyncs, extra commissions...), besides, there are other brokers offering similar conditions with direct Empty4 support.

Bully Pepperstone has a "20pips distance from market price" restriction that causes many 120 errors when the eas try to place stops. But I wonder if they mean 20 pips or points, because I managed to place stops at 10 pips without that error, so I don't know.
Thank you Andy for your info about the Razor ECN account. Bully Pepperstone Razor still could be a good option, although the stop restriction bothers me. I've had a very strange incident on their demo edge acc., regarding hard stopLosses not being hit, and turning from pink to yellow: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=6&t=1082

I am currently trying ICMarkets, and liking them very much. They are older and better stablished. No stop restrictions, good price feed, can place microlots on the ECN too, australian based with servers in NY. The commission is a bit higher i think, but they look more reliable.

What do you guys think about ICMarkets?

Thank you, merry christmas and happy new year to all of you!
