    What brokers do you use to access currenex platform?

    PropFX will give you access for a $10K minimum - much less than most brokers. Thats the best deal for margin accounts. If you are using a PB account you have many options. How do you normally trade? And is there a reason you want CX as opposed to other platforms? T/G

    Anyone traded propfx live?

    With an ECN there are two ways to make money if you aren't making a market: 1. An additional commission to the spread 2. A widened spread Thats it. Its like saying that the spread is a "manipluation" of prices. How do you think its going to operate? I wish it was free trades as well...

    Anyone traded propfx live?

    Currenex is only software. If you contact Currenex they won't be able to help you. Most whitelables on CX work exactly the same, how could a firm that doesn't make prices on the platfrom manipulate anything? I think you may be confused about how Currenex works. Trader/God

    Things currency traders never say

    1. Well that was a bad trade and I deserved to lose, my broker had nothing to do with it 2. That was just a lucky trade, skill wasn’t a factor 3. That idea that there is an international conspiracy against currency traders that extends to all firms whose sole purpose to rip off traders is...

    Broker Horror Stories??

    Anybody have this happen with FXCM?!

    The idea that a firm with literally 10’s of thousands of accounts would do that is kind of absurd. Even assuming a small % are trading at anyone time, to have someone follow those accounts, to learn my habits or even notice if I have 10 lots in the market is silly. Not that it would be...

    Broker Horror Stories??

    As I've posted previously: You can always count on the conspiracy theorists coming out of the woodwork whenever something happens with their trading platform. I can almost see the rabble frothing at the mouth while they breathlessly type in that, “omg, the fxcm zionists are manipulating the...

    legit firm

    You are looking for an ECN. Firms that claim to offer interbank feeds are lying, its just marketing puffery. A currenex based platform will show spreads and depth available in the market from all the banks feeding the platform. You’ll see the best bids and offers available and the depth...

    "no rollover" account

    No idea where this poster is getting his false info from, when it’s so easy to call and ask. FXCM does offer "interest free" accounts designed for religious reasons. Go on their chat and they will send you an interest free form if you request it. They eat the interest. Despite what you...
