I wouldn't call it a hobby. Maybe for some people it's a hobby. For others it might be a vice - similar to gambling. However, you can profit trading FX. Of course it helps a lot to have a broker that is considered "good". I'm not just saying that to get everyone's spirits up or convince myself that it can be done. I have proved it. I hate to say that cause now everyone will laugh and go 'yea right' or say things like 'show me proof!' or 'I don't believe you!'. You don't have to believe me if you don't want to, but I can assure you it is possible. The reason most traders lose money is cause they have false expectations coming in. They also have lack of experience, patience and persistence. Most are just looking for a quick buck. Actually most are looking for more than a quick buck. They want to double their account every year. In the absence of extremely good luck that's not going to happen. It also gets to the point where good luck runs out and has nothing to do with it. On the few occasions where I have openly said how much my monthly average return is I have been laughed at (and not because it's very high). The funny part is my monthly average is positive while those that laugh are mostly negative. They have it in their mind that they are good traders because they had one month where they doubled their money. I have also learned that they will fight tooth and nail to keep that perception alive in their mind. They have no idea how much danger their account is in.

good broker. its only con: commissions on ctrader higher than most other ecn/stp brokers, $13 on eurousd(lowest spread pair) for every 1 lot= 1.3 pip, spread low 0.2 - 0.5, that will make final fee 1.5 - 1.8 pip, on other pairs spread becomes higher depending on the currency value, most brokers offer better fees, even on fixed spread account. other than that, pros are many: very rare slippage(most are for the client advantage), real market prices, good support, fast deposit and withdrawal.

I trade Forex full time and can say without restrictions that Fxpro is one of the best brokers we have on the retail arena currently. If you are an experienced trader who has no problem with commissions, their cTrader platform is the right trading tool for the market, A major setback with Fxpro is their commission which I deem too high. I'm hoping the management will look into this with a view that lowering trading costs will attract more traders.
Execution with their ECN is awesome. Lots are filled without requotes and I can tell you that I have not experienced any and I trade standard lots. Execution speed is top notch.
As for withdrawal, I cannot give them the thumb yet as I opened a cTrader account last month. When withdrawal has been made, I shall be here to drop more reviews.
In all, I would recommend their ECN cTrader platform to any serious trader. I'm in with Fxpro for the long haul and with my experience so far, I'm more than a satisfied client.

Thank you for bringing the above issues to our attention, we have passed these logs to our IT department who are investigating why you received these error messages.

We would, however, like to point out that all of the above orders were executed on an FxPro demo server and not in our live environment where trades are sent straight to our LPs. Your accusation that these trade logs indicate that FxPro does not operate an Agency Model are unfounded.

As I am sure you understand, our demo environment is fully automated and is provided to our clients in order to allow them to see our spreads/pricing and also to hone their trading skills/strategies. Our demo environments provide clients with an indication of the type of execution they will receive, however it is not possible to fully replicate a live environment where trades are executed in the FX Market against live trading counterparties.

We can understand your confusion, however please do keep the above in mind.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact our Support Department directly via email/telephone or Live Chat.

It's true that demo accounts in many brokers are not as stable as live accounts. It's not only FXPro's issue. Demo is demo after all.

they are always said this:
We are no problem and other customers no problem.
We did not briefed any issues from other customers.

Hi Traders,

just a few questions
- why is everybody so keen on leverages higher than 100?
- what exactly are your parameters to decide whether or not a broker is good?
- how do you detect a bad broker?
- what makes you think a broker is very good?

Thanks!

Well its really confusing.. but you can take my word that FxPro is legit..
+True ECN broker+
+200,000Clients.. so they manage approx 500mil in retail account balances..
+Fast execution
+Top notch platform
+Many deposit methods

-High Commission


If FxPro was a scam, and a "FAKE ECN" they would not have 200,000 retail customers, and im one of them.
Probably the worlds best currency trader.

200,000 accounts

Post the source of this information please?

In the US there is a total of less than 100,000 accounts held at all fx brokers combined and this is decreasing not growing over the last few years. On babypips it lists FX Pro as having 13801 accounts. This could be out of date info but even if they had grown over the last year or two I very much doubt they have grown their account holders by over 1400% to become the biggest broker in the world!

What you are saying just seems a little bit exaggerated

You can solve the 'Trade context is busy' issue by tossing in a simple while statement:
Inserted Code
while(IsTradeContextBusy()){Sleep(10);}

Well im for sure not using Babypips for source.. why do you even bring up USA in the conversation.

There are alot of brokers with over 200,000 clients.. FxPro is one of them.
Source taken from FxPro.

I found many old information about FxPro.. you know that FxPro have had one of the biggest gains in clients since they introduced ECN model..
from 2011-2014.. continues grow.. they have clients from all around the world.. why do they grow?
No conflict with broker, Real ecn.. fast deposit/fast withdraw.. its the perfect broker for the retail trader..small or big.
Probably the worlds best currency trader.

fast deposit/fast withdraw ---->
fast deposit--->yes,
fast withdraw---> NO. It take over 5 business day.
fxpro`s ecn ctrader,
commission is most expensive of all ecn brokers.
mt4 agency model,
this mean nothing.
connection is unstable,trade context is busy,requote,requote,requote,,,,
MT4 major pairs`s spreads are always over 1.5 pip.
I`ve never seen below 1.0 pip. eurusd,usdjpy,gbpusd,audusd,nzdusd,usdcad,eurjpy,gbpjpy,,,,, all.

If you using bank transfers, it's normal
My withdrawal will be processed less than 24 hours, usually an hours, and I'm using payment processor.

Yes the FxPro spread enough high if we compares with other broker, but on big news the spread stable, it's will help me to trade on the big news, other broker will wider the spread.

Many of your posts just complaint on this thread, my simple question why you still trade with them?
