    Are all MetaTrader brokers scam?

    The age of internet and strict regulations against the scamsters is making the trading scenario very secure and robust. I think now more than often a trader needs to be armed with all the knowledge of the trading principles and regulations to look for because even though regulations are not...

    Market depth with MT4

    Calculating the bid and ask prices for all the individual forex pairs is not feasible. A very large pool of traders for EUR/USD pairs is present so practically how can anyone calculate the bid and ask for this pair without market depth. I have been trading forex through many platforms and...

    Are all MetaTrader brokers scam?

    I think the competition in the market is getting healthier. People are also learning through social trading platforms such as Fxview, IB etc. I think these are the best platforms where traders can interact and can get some views about the various brokers and strategies.

    Which currency are you trading? - EUR/USD/AUD/JPY?

    My observation is that gaps don’t always get filled in forex, I would say gap trading is more suitable for stocks.

    Restriction free meta trading

    I have been using acttrader on both my accounts: fxview and avatrade. And avatrade is one of the oldest standing brokers around. The range of assets to trade with them is insane (200) but cost-wise fxview fares better. They do offer mt4/5 also though, in case you be interested.

    Offshore brokers (or offshore banks with brokerage services). Any ?

    There are so many, I have been using offshore brokers for over 5 years now, for obvious reasons, primarily the high leverage and the tax benefits. Started with lmfx and now using fxview.

My trader friends who have been trading for a long time now talk highly of this platform, I’m sure it's good. But I...

    It is risky only when your broker is not able to provide quick order execution or access to market prices in real-time. Brokers like Turnkey forex and IB have been known to work profitably for scalpers with their latest software and advanced servers.

    Can you have open positions if and when you move from one broker to another??

    Fidelity is an excellent broker that will not charge you for withdrawals or transfers. All you have to do is, click on the ‘transfer in kind’ option and you will be good to go. Although I really like Fidelity, I felt at the time of making a transfer to Turnkey forex that it is a bit complex to...

    Can i sell securities from acat transfer and use the money to buy another stocks ? Any hold period ?

    Yes you can transfer and use the money for buying other stocks with ACAT. Automated Customer Account Transfer service is a centralized system that would help you do so. I don’t think there would be any hold period for doing so.
