Following the big money

I was trading with Oanda for 6 years. They increased their spreads and during news releases they are awful. I transfered my account to IKON Viking. The spread + commissions is 1 pip or lower and the fills are much faster than with Oanda.

ECN Brokers

I have real account with IKON for more than 2 months and they charge $20 per round turn. Actually it is 0.2 pips of the base currency per RT. I like Viking more than the regular Currenex platform. This is a matter of trading habits probably. I use ...

ECN Brokers

I trade with IKON Viking. The commission is $10 per 1M. Spreads are very good (0.5-0.8 for EURUSD) and execution is excellent. Withdrawals are proceeded within a few hours.

The orders with the best bid and ask are between 1 and 3M. Sometimes it's 0.5, other times 5M. I can't see all the liquidity. Today the distance between bid and ask for USD/CAD jumped to 18/9 pips during the release of Canada unemployment numbers. ...
