Dear XM, Got an email today about the 'European regulatory' and transfer to XM Global. Can you explain it in layman's terms? As I'm a non-European trader, is it in my best interest to accept the transfer to continue the benefits of my current trading account?
Dear dethkult,

I have replied to your thread in a private message as the email you have received is something which applies only to specific regions.

Thank you,

SO as per this case, Did XM can vary the spread when there is big market move? remember that it was Europ-US section time when the market has liquidity.

Dear priceaction1,

To cover your questions one by one please see below:

how much spread can vary in eur/usd during Europe and us section.

Since XM operates on variable spreads similar to the interbank market, spreads vary according to times of the day. During big news announcements the market is very volatile and spreads widen. This is something beyond the control of XM or any other broker. Its simply how the interbank market works.


This is 0.5 standard lot trade. which is closed @ 1.18161 when 20% margin still there.
as per your view market did gove above 1.1817 area. ok

The Ask price went above 1.1817 more specifically to 1.18174

SO as per this case, Did XM can vary the spread when there is big market move? remember that it was Europ-US section time when the market has liquidity.

As noted above during news announcements the market is very volatile and spreads become wider.

Your statement above is wrong as XM does not vary the spreads, XM reflects the spreads its receives from the interbank market.

Once again as noted above this is something beyond the control of XM or any other broker. Its simply how the interbank market works.

If you need anything else let us know.

Thank you,

ok "during news announcements the market is very volatile and spreads become wider" does it means XM use to obey market condition but we never see eur/usd spread less than 1.9

Since XM operates on variable spreads similar to the interbank market,

then why not spread drop below 1.9 all the time.

so we can say that XM offer variable spreads with the lower lock at 1.9 but it can as high as the market goes at any given time.

We expect low spread, low commission, no withdrawal commission. Brokers are not orphanage. How would they be able to pay their staff, run their brokerage and pay traders on withdrawing

If you're into swing trading, spread, commission and negative swap are something you can easily cover up with movement

yes. ( see https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...2#post10434532) XM account is/was used for high leverage trade. They were good before but now I need clarification.
