If the platform were actually down, that wouldn't really help. But it wasn't. Looks like a web outage that took down the website for a bit.

All good here in the West. Meta was fine whole time, but website back up now.

Website shouldn't be related, but I can't get to the site either. I can trade though just fine.

So you want a deal desk? And one of the worst ones out there at that?

Looking for a broker for USA traders

LOL. Just say the name of the broker. In this case, trust me, Justin won't mind.

This has been addressed a million times on this thread by newbies. Please just go back and read so we don't have to hear it all again. You don't have a clearing arrangement with the banks in their system, they do. In fact, they are the 100% ...

Hard to imagine why anyone would use Gain anymore anyway. Anyhow.

NFA case against Forex.com/Gain Capital

Don't switch to Nav if you don't want to (never mind that it's the better platform) but I have learned a trick for stuff I do in MT4. Download Nav (Desktop) and log into your Meta account with it. If you have trouble with an order in Meta, jot down ...

Everyone has to have $100 in their account to place a trade. Please quit posting this spam, you've posted three times the same thing.
