First, I am very happy with this broker, but right now that says Mevo ............ But most make me GROUCHY is their server ..... it's been almost 2 weeks ....... The most severe .... Today only in the 2 hours I try to access, there are more than 10 X disconnect on my MT4 .........
Although they are very fast WD .................
Better to just leave them ...............

Mevo, I don't quite understand why did they have to close 'all your transactions' after the discontinued pair was solved. Why couldn't yo close the EURUSD pair on ur own?

I have a so called ndd account with them and have had it for some time now. So, I have to say I support what you are doing here by trying to shine a light on these seemingly shady practices. Their widening of spreads (from promised max 2 pips to about 10 pips) on major pairs smack in the middle of the day cost me a large chunk of my account from which I had to recover by switching my whole method of trading --from intraday to longer term trading --not to mention that trying to scalp with them is virtually impossible. Requotes are a frequent, sometimes big slippage...It all happens, everything bad that can happen to your account WILL HAPPEN in Exness!
But, they just couldn't stop me from shorting Euro crosses since this Cyprus crisis happened and soon I will have all the money needed to have my account at where I can withdraw it all and say adios forever. My only concern here is that I'm pointing a finger at people that work in the company for something that is perhaps a software issue with DD platform and that it wouldn't happen in their supposed ECN accounts...You know, maybe they are not scammers but instead running a crap service....One thing that pisses me off though is when they come on forums like these and fault the loss on traders 'because they aren't trading properly'...lol...Its equivalent of hosts of the 'Wipeout' (show on ABC channel) saying to contestants how they are clumsy and that is why they can't finish the course without falling over and over.

I truly don't want to be unfair towards the mentioned company, but this is my true sentiment after witnessing all the crap disconnects, spread widenings, requotes, moving of stops and slippage on this account that I've tried to manage .

Cheers and keep us updated.

Barbarian: Thank you for your post. I totally agree with all that you wrote. It is true that Exness post a lot on forums: Under their name, and under other names, saying it is the traders fault, defending Exness or promoting it as the absolute best broker on earth (and often accusing scammed traders to work for a competitor and post false stories, lol)

PLEASE do NOT do the same mistake as me: I was at one point in the EXACT same situation as you. I had noticed their tricks, but wasn't too sure about if they were scamming me on purpose or having, like you say a 'crap service'. And EXACTLY how you've done it, I ADAPTED my trading successfully. But later, as I earned back some money, they just did far worse to prevent me from being able to withdraw that money. And afterwards I really kept on asking myself: 'How can I have been so stupid ? I perfectly knew they were dishonest, why did I continue ? It was so obvious !'. So please don't do this mistake. I totally understand that psychologically, you want to recover and get your money back. But you also know that it is the same if you withdraw what you have left and recover with another broker, an HONEST one. You even will be able to do some better trading, and more importantly: If you win too much with Exness, you probably won't be able to withdraw, so leave while you still can !

If you want to invest some time: Read the thread here and on FPA (the 2 links posted before) and understand that you should leave Exness as soon as possible (this is only my opinion, but read and make an opinion by yourself).

If you want to continue to discuss, please post in the thread on the forum here, and I will reply there too, as we are in the 'Broker review' section here.

 Well here is the best question to support exness. Does exness force you to enter a buy/sell order? Most brokers claim that EXNESS has cost them money. Yet when you look at the persons trades. The trader has a huge pip drawdown (as swing traders usually have), not to mention they have no actual strategy. Yes exness may have a 1.5 pip spread the all of a sudden it becomes 10 pips. Yet that ONLY occurs during NEWS RELEASES. Any experienced scalper or trader knows to stay away from a currency during that time.

 Exness is not the best broker for scalping, but they are not be blamed for your horrible entry point which ends up in you losing funds.

I'm a technical trader, but, aren't there 'news releases' every hour of every trading day...Maybe try to limit your excuse a bit more, because as it stands is just reinforcing my claim of constant possibility of large spread inconsistency.

You are right, 90% of traders will be losers. But, surely then 100% of traders will be losers when you shut off their mt4 platform when they try to close the trade in profit..innit
