Hello to everyone!

I am new to myfxbook and it's been a while since I started to trade with demo accounts several months ago.
I was wondering if you could suggest me a broker available on myfxbook website in order to open a real account with low costs of maintenance.

Any ideas of an ECN one?

Thank you in advance!😁

How about Oanda? I was using them before on my real account and no issues

Im sure everyone here has experienced spread widening just when your about to put on a good trade or your stop loss minimum increased,I was looking at a useful tool called 4xsentinel,might be of some use .

To be honest it's hard to find the right broker because of payout I know I said FxGlory but that was because my friend 'was' using them till I did a little research told him about it and he ended up getting the same negative results after he wanted to withdrawal some money. Now what broker is a good company that keeps there spreads tight and nice, no connection issues, won't mess with your orders and will let you open an account at low-cost and won't scam you out your profits or disable your account when trying to pull money out?

There is no such thing as 'good broker'. Sooner or later it becomes clear that one may find only the LEAST BAD broker.

If one has a good strategy, it is better to use it on the centralized and highly regulated currency futures markets.

Sorry, I don't know them.

What I know is that ANY broker offering higher than 50:1 leverage to you will 'B-book' you. There is nothing wrong with 'B-booking' until 'B-booking' is supplemented by multiple 'virtual dealer plug-in' parasite software to eat up your account alive...

Since most brokers 'B-book' most of their retail clients, their only way NOT TO LOSE against profitable clients on high leverage is to unleash their army of 'virtual dealer plug-ins' on their accounts.

P. S. The above is not an 'urban legend'. I know it first-hand from owners of brokerages.

i have used Oanda (Live & Practice Accounts) on their platform and MT4 platform so far no problems, prompt payout when requested. Just using an EA I designed my self gives me small profit every trade, soon builds up and takes my irrational decision making away. Using leverage of 20:1 so can ride out my bad trades until market turns. Platform has gone off line during some major news breaks but so far I have been lucky when back on line. The EA's I designed definitely save the day using spread betting option as is currently tax free in the UK. Hope this helps.
I have not tried their Hedging option so I cannot comment on that.

The only way to beat these plug ins is to trend trade,so they cant stretch the spread enough to knock you out,if you can trade something that isn't in focus, you only go into book B if your a crap trader otherwise your hedged out if your a swinging dick.There is detection software for plug ins and broker dealer server disconnection activity.

Been quite happy with Pepperstone. The spread does not widen much for news or weekend. At closing this weekend its at 0.5 pip for EURUSD, 0.6 for USDJPY. With most brokers I see spreads going to 3-4 pips+. With Oanda its at 10 pip.

Fxopen is good too. It widens more than Pepperstone in the weekends. And have worse spreads for minor pairs. But you save plenty on the commission.
