Where do you use your trading EA? I don’t think, it’s an available option to the retail traders (trading without FX brokers).

Lots of negative press on social media about disputed payments and platform freezes etc. Do a search on Facebook and Twitter and you'll see what I mean

Whatever; I think we should consider the popular review sites as much as possible; social media is not reliable.

I believe everyone will consider a security of deposit therefore FCA broker will suit for that reason. To avoid scam broker..that is my personal opinion

Specific examples of the latest and upcoming FCA regulations also include:

An ability to ban products for up to a year as it considers a lifetime ban
Implementing maximum leverage limits and ensuring appropriate risk warnings
Using the Financial Services Compensation Scheme to afford retail clients up to £30,000 if an FCA regulated forex broker goes bankrupt. Customers may also get 90% of the next £20,000. However, it cannot promise compensation on more than £50,000, which is still greater than EU bodies.

We the traders should choose the brokers in cool mind, we have to choose the broker which is more appropriate to the concept of trading of trading that will be used , the traders who are particularly scalpers have to choose the broker which allows trading concept such as this.

While choosing a forex broker definitely a broker being regulated is the first criteria to look for. It may not be easy, but not impossible to find out whether a broker is regulated or not.

Usually a regulated broker provides its regulation details, license number etc on the website which someone can verify by further visiting the regulator's website.

But being regulated is not enough since now a days many forex brokers use very fine tuned and sophisticated techniques in the back end to not be noticed by the traders while manipulating price feed in individual accounts to make the trader loose money.

One of the guaranteed ways to notice these things is by live monitoring of automated trades while opening and closing of trades in your account and to check how the trades are getting opened and closed at what price and how much slippage, spread variation and execution delay you are getting etc.

Finally, of course the broker must allow to withdraw profits. But if you have chosen a correct regulated broker, then it should not be an issue.
