anyone trade Forex with MB Trading ?

MiamiHurricanes you don't need to reboot your computer for loss of internet connectivity, never... If Fxtrade losing connection hangs up your computer you've got serious hardware/software issues at your end and that's not Oanda's fault. And those problems would probably be solvable if you just had any inclination to do so.
 
I have trade Stocks with MB for 4 months.

I can say that it is a good company, execution is fast, data feed is reliable, and generally I loved MB Navigator, it is designed nicely.

The only thing that I was not happy about was that they charge $0.01 per share. If you trade 500 shares or more per trade or more then they charge $0.005. I trade usually less than 500 shares per trade so I could not use their plan C.

I opened an account with IB. I think MB's data feed a little bit faster, and their software designed much better than IB's though IB's platform has a little bit more feautres.

Becuase IB charges only $0.005 per trade I will stay with them for now. Though if MB would charge $0.005 I would go back to MB.

Oanda really needs this....

ACH Transfers: NEW!
Electronically transfer funds to and from your checking or savings account. ACH transfers typically take 24-48 hours to process and are available for no charge. There is a limit of $25,000 per day for all ACH transfers. To get started, log in and select the "Account Management" link from the left menu. In the new window that appears, select "ACH Relationships" from the "Transactions" menu. Enter your account number and click the "Request New" button.

all that at the website.
 
I used MBT for spot about a year ago.

It was appaling - always freezing and getting filled at non current rates. I closed my account very quickly.

It is possible it has now resolved these issues - I will watch this thread with interest.

I also think MB charge too much comparing IB, but 10K per lot for FOREX allows flexible position size.

Where is our thread author?

bltoby are you here?



I'm just back.

thanks for all replies!!!

Oanda may be another choice but I always feel they are not perfect. Perhaps there is no perfect broker for ever.
 
To be clear, I never stated the Oanda's FX Trade hung up my computer - it just %#@ed iteself up exclusively. And as I stated I do not want to completely step away from my trading to reboot unless required and when everything else is operable then FXTrade can go $#@! itself.
