{quote} Hi Keen, I reached out to you regarding the issues you mentioned but received no reply to my follow up questions. The last time we discussed, you were trading on a demo account. Is that still the case? Do you still believe we are after your demo dollars? {quote} You are mistaken. Experienced traders are some of our best clients with Active Trader accounts and institutional accounts through our FXCM Pro division.
Jason,
I experienced all the issues on demo and on real as well, so it's clear that FXCM is after retail traders money.
My bad experience with FXCM is mirrored on several Forex threads, so I doubt big clients will put up with such a lousy broker.

I'm sorry you feel that way. However, your experience is not mirrored by our clients who executed $281 billion in retail customer trading volume and $41 billion in institutional customer trading volume with FXCM last month.

No one here is interested in what you have to bring to the threads. It is trolling at is worst. Concentrate on your own trading instead of going after other traders with a Trade Explorer.

Damn, I guess FXCM's "C Currency" HYIP program where over 8 million was in the pool and they ran off with the funds, paid off.

Hi Jason
Could you possibly look into this situation with Sierra/FXCM and see how much longer this agreement is going to take.
Thanks!

Focus on your trading and stop posting on brokers! You have a 78% floating loss.

Hi LR,

We are regulated by the CFTC to offer forex trading in the US and will continue to do so. In fact, latest financial data from the CFTC show traders have more money on deposit with FXCM than any other US-regulated forex broker.

If you currently have an account with a broker that can no longer offer forex trading in the US, I encourage you to consider us particularly for the No Dealing Desk (NDD) execution and low spreads we provide to all Standard and Active Trader accounts.

High volume traders might be especially interested in a trial of our new Market Depth indicator. (free to all Standard and Active Trader account holders)

Hi Ockham,

While we sold our Hong Kong entity to Rakuten last year, you are welcome to trade through one of our other globally-regulated entities as a resident of Thailand. Based on your location, you might want to consider FXCM Australia. You will benefit from 24-hour customer support from our staff worldwide via phone and live chat, and on weekdays, I am happy to answer your questions here on the forum.

Hello everybody,
I am a active trader on IB with an automated SW using TWS. I am thinking to change broker from IB to FXCM.
My SW is in Java and i would like to know if you have any suggestions to convert my existing code to work with Trade Station 2, in the painless way possible.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Kikkohsv,

While Trading Station Desktop lets you execute automated strategies coded in Lua, it's worth noting FXCM offers other platforms for automated trading including NinjaTrader and MT4. Since your existing code is in Java, it may also interest you to know we offer several trading APIs including a Java API.

That may provide the easiest translation for you, but since my personal knowledge of programming is limited, I encourage you to speak with one of my colleagues in our Programming Services department. They can suggest a solution based on your specific programming requirements. If you need them to recode your strategy for you, they can give you a quote on how much that service will cost. You can even qualify for free programming services from them based on the amount you deposit in your trading account with FXCM.

If you would like me to arrange a follow up for you with a member of Programming Services, please send me a private message with your contact details.
