Best Forex Broker?

Recommended Posts

What, in your opinion, is the best forex broker and why?

 

I am looking to open a micro account with a forex broker, preferably one that offers a demo.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

For me, the best forex broker has to be the quickest one, which means that my orders are sent to the market without delays or requotes. The broker has to be a real ECN STP broker that works directly with the real market. Another important issue is the spreads- I want to reduce the costs so 1.8 is the max spread I am willing to take (EUR/USD). Regardless to the performance of the broker, it has to have a great customer service and easy payment methods. When I try a new broker, I usually open 100$ account and try to withdrawal the money within few days. If I see any problems, I erase this broker from my mind and- there are no second chance in this matter. It took me years to find such a broker, mainly because it took the brokers too long to work according these standards. Finally I settled down at Alpari UK two years ago, and 5 month ago I started working with Sunbird fx as well. Very satisfied with both of them- each one has it is pros and cons… I suggest that you try their demo account before you open a live account. Good Luck

Most of the forex brokers offer demo account so that wouldn't be a problem. I remember it took about a month for me to decide which one was best for me...There are plenty of them...You should compare them and choose one...

 

I think the most important thing is the security of your money. Probably you wouldn’t want to hand over hundreds of $$$ to a company which you can’t trust. Check to see if it is registered with any regulating authorities...

 

Next step is to compare what they offer. Minimum deposit, trade sizes, spreads, variety of instruments etc...

Just for me though, if a Broker accepts Paypal as mode of Payment, that means that they're legit money wise. Brokers nowadays just come and go and we need to be very careful with it. vbulletin-smile.gif

Sometimes hard to find out all of the information needed, perhaps a good idea to check forums and see what opinions people have

in terms of best? then thats a bit hard to define, all brokers have their own pros and cons, and its down too what a trader is looking for, and the right set of conditions for their country and trading style, means of deposit and withdrawals are a plus, so basically the word best if a bit hard to define in terms of brokers but there are good brokers such as hotforex, though they did win awards by world finance but i do not believe in the word best.

Do some research before make decision. Check regulation, system stability, withdraw speed, thread and the feedback from uses. After all a reliable broker is very important.

No one can give tell you which the best broker for YOU is, OP. 

It all depends on you. What kind of trader are you? What are your trading strategies and tactics? What is your trading budget? 

Are you using EAs, news trading etc? 

First you have to know all that, and then start looking for a broker that has all you need in terms of platform, tools (add-ons), accounts, fees and so on.

Imo after years of search, Hotforex proved its the best broker in the industry with lowest spreads. Remember that its better to rely on feedback rather than spending money on expensive tests which are likely to give you little information about the broker

The best platform for me is an improved, user-friendly, online trading platform that gives you unlimited access to the financial market. With this, you can enjoy smooth and complete access to your trading activity with just a click away and lets you make a demo account in which you can practice trading without risking actual money. It is a best practice ground for newbies like you. Mine has the characteristics of what you are looking for though.

I use hot forex - for the following reasons:

 

1) Low spreads

2) Higher Leverage than most

3) Ability to trade oil and all the major indexes (Dax, S&P, Dow, Etc.)

4) 50% bonus on deposits (deposit $1000 get $1500 to trade)

    • Date: 22nd November 2024.   BTC flirts with $100K, Stocks higher, Eurozone PMI signals recession risk.   Asia & European Sessions:   Geopolitical risks are back in the spotlight on fears of escalation in the Ukraine-Russia after Russia reportedly used a new ICBM to retaliate against Ukraine’s use of US and UK made missiles to attack inside Russia. The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver. Profit taking and rebalancing into year-end are adding to gyrations too. Wall Street rallied, led by the Dow’s 1.06% broadbased pop. The S&P500 advanced 0.53% and the NASDAQ inched up 0.03%. Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94. The AUDNZD spiked to 2-year highs amid speculation the RBNZ will cut the official cash rate by more than 50 bps next week. Oil surged 2.12% to $70.46. Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year. Haven demand balanced out the pressure from a strong USD following mixed US labor data. Silver rose 0.9% to 31.38, while palladium increased by 0.9% to 1,040.85 per ounce. Platinum remained unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
