@goode you should be able to get the complete history for your FXCM account if you add it to your Myfxbook portfolio as a Trading Station account instead of an MT4 platform. Note that your account login works on both platforms. You can trade on MT4 and use Trading Station for the account history.

Hi Andy,In the United States, CFTC Regulation 5.16 applies to all US forex trading accounts regardless of the broker. Therefore, no broker may in any way represent that it will guarantee against losses in a US forex trading account. That means, in the future if a similar event to the January 15th SNB announcement happens, US forex traders shall at all times be liable to their broker for any negative balance or debit balance in their accounts. Your forum profile mentions that you live in the US, so this CFTC regulation would apply to you.For FXCM clients who live outside the US, it's worth...

Hi Nushakov,Our clients, like most retail traders elsewhere, were net long EUR/CHF on January 15th. That means they lost money due to the SNB's surprise announcement which caused EUR/CHF drop 40% in seconds. If we traded against our clients like you suggest, then we would have made money from those losses, but we didn't.If there were any doubts before, it should be pretty clear now that FXCM does not benefit when clients lose on our No Dealing Desk (NDD) forex execution. That's because we offset each of your orders one-for-one with the best prices from competing liquidity providers...

Hi Ben,With FXCM, slippage can be either positive or negative.It's important to note that to this day, some brokers may still not provide positive slippage to their clients, while others may provide positive slippage on some order types, but don't provide it on other order types. Still other brokers will re-quote their clients when the price moves in their clients' favor but fail to re-quote when the price moves against them.By contrast, there are no re-quotes at FXCM, and our clients receive the full benefits of any positive slippage that's available. A one-year study of over ...

Hi Wivilson,FXCM clients can deposit, withdraw, and trade as usual. FXCM is one of the few brokers to show you actual retail FX trading volume, and as you can see from EUR/USD, which is one of the most popular currency pairs, our clients EUR/USD trading volumes have hit the highest levels since 2012:http://i.imgur.com/LIAAzZr.jpgWhile our clients did experience losses due to the January 15 event, the $300 million financing FXCM received strengthened our balance sheet and gives us the opportunity to grow our core business. Let me know if you have any questions.Jason

Oanda versus FXCM dans Général Feb 10, 2015 at 23:33

FXCM believes No Dealing Desk (NDD) forex execution provides a fair model for traders, because it eliminates the conflict of interest that can exist when trading with dealing desk brokers.If you trade with a dealing desk firm AKA a market maker, at the most basic level, your losses can result in profits for your broker, and vice versa. That's why some dealing desk brokers are announcing record profits from the SNB announcement. Imagine what would have happened at a those same firms had the market surprised in the opposite direction.

The primary change we will be making is removing currency pairs from the platform that carry significant risk due to over-active manipulation by their respective government either by a floor, ceiling, peg or band. Given what happened with EUR/CHF the industry is now looking very hard at any potentially similar issues, especially given the increased geopolitical risks in Southern and Eastern Europe.We will also be raising margin requirements for other pairs as well. Some of these changes will be permanent while others may change as geopolitical risks change. The pairs we are removing from the p...

FXCM is not insolvent, has not filed for any form of bankruptcy, and is in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements in the jurisdictions in which it operates. The financing we received from Leucadia has strengthened our balance sheet and gives us the opportunity to grow our core business. With Leucadia, our pockets are even deeper and we aren’t going anywhere. Additionally, all of our regulated entities except the U.S. provide clients with segregated funds. All of our global client base in our regulated entities minus US clients would be protected under a bankruptcy. Our UK re...

We anticipate that with the proceeds from the sale of some non-core assets and continued earnings we can meet both near and long-term obligations of our financing, while preserving the strength of our franchise.
