200,000 traders around the world have already chosen InstaForex

Quote from BigFunky:

Hi Katerine,

I note that on your website it states that Instaforex is an ECN broker, and as you have also claimed, that it is not a market maker or a bucketshop.

However, you have also mentioned that Instaforex makes it's profits from the spread - I have also noticed on the Instaforex website that the spread appears to be a constant 3 pip spread for the majors.

How can it be possible that an ECN broker, one that does not participate in the market as a market maker or act as a bucketshop, make any profit from the bid/ask spread?

If Instaforex adds pips to a clients order then sends it to the 'market', the actual bid or ask sent through is determined only by Instaforex, which seems to fix the spread to 3 pips wide (which is about 2 pips above the typical ECN rate). Any difference between that rate and a client's order is profit to Instaforex. Isn't this the definition of a bucketshop?

No, it is not. According to your definition it turns out that all Forex brokers are bucketshops and scammers, because ALL FOREX BROKER (including ECN) earn from spreads. In different companies spreads also differ, so your suppositions are wrong.

There are a lot of different ambiguous descriptions of ECN-trading in the Internet. Our company offers ECN-trading by a scheme of all clients lots summarizing with the further transferring to the counter agent. Every client makes a deal with another one or appears to be a part of summarized position transferred to ECN-counter agents.

Yeah, for the English speakers... "All" refers to all accounts, not only "active" accounts.

There is said "all types of accounts". FYI, there are 2 types of trading accounts with InstaForex: Insta.Standard and Insta.Eurica. Both can be rewarded with the rate.

Ahaha love it how the OP is a 21 year old and even doesn't understand how spread is not related to leverage when using 1:1000 for example.

And 13% interest rate on accounts? Sure... How can you pay that for your clients? You know there are no free lunches don't you? I guess they should've payed more attention to Economics 101 in college...

lol, what?

"Appears to be part of a summarized position "transferred" to ECN counter-agents""

That's the (retarded) definition of a market maker... the client is not guaranteed that he/she is trading directly with an outside liquidity provider, but cleared by Instaforex. You are the counter-party and guarantor of every transaction. IOW, DB is not on the offer and JPM is not on the bid, you are on every quote.

ECN is not an ambiguous acronym.

I see that you know Economics 101 very good, but you have a lack in reading skills. A few messages above, I have already answered the question about 13%. Of course, this is not a free lunch, active clients are paying spread, and we give an incentive to them. It's as simple as ABC.

Oh, really? Then give us a link to resource, where the definition is given. Or are you the author of that??
