IC Markets True ECN is working well with MDP at the moment (after a few small adjustments). My account is up 114% since 3 weeks ago. Have zero stop loss limits helps my EA scalp for small pip movements. I have done 42 trades so far.
So far very good so 5 stars for now.
I have been looking for an ECN Metatrader broker for ages, so I was happy when I found IC Markets. Spreads are very very good I have seen them at zero. What really shocked me was how low their commission rate was for an ECN broker. They charge me $3.5 per lot which I think is really cheap compared to what Alpari charge me. The are a very good metatrader broker.
I hear that they use Integral and have 37 banks connected that's why the spreads they show are so good.
When I called them they told me their main liquidity providers were:
Morgan Stanley
Deutsche Bank
JP Morgan
BNP Paribas
Bank Of America
Nomura
RBS
Goldman Sachs
HSBC
UBS
Credit Suisse
Citi Group
Commerzbank
SMBC
SEB
Natixis
Bank of Tokyo
Westpac
Santander
They rattled off a few more names but I was not quick enough to write them down.
I am pretty impressed with the prices that I see though.
I just finished comparing the 3 months worth of spread data from 4 Aussie MT4 brokers and IC Markets came out as the best of the lot across all of the Majors and Crosses. I have never seen spreads from any broker are as tight as what IC Markets are showing.
Very Impressive.
IC Markets are the best ECN forex broker in Australia. Their execution is fast and there is little or no slippage.
Im a big fan of ECN forex brokers and after trading with IC Markets for over 8 months now I am quite comfortable recommending them to anyone who is serious about their forex trading.
I don't often share my opinions online however after trading with over 12 forex brokers in the last 5 years I was so excited to discover an ECN broker in Australia that I really could not help myself. Not only does IC Markets provide me with a great Metatrader 4 ECN platform but they actually employ staff that are not sales staff but rather TRADERS, something that is unusual for most brokers these days.
In this day and age finding a broker like IC Markets is like finding a needle in a haystack. Fortunately I have found the needle...
This is one broker that really knows forex, 5 stars for sure.
Many thanks to Albert and the Chinese sales team for the great time at the IC Markets corporate box at the Singapore F1 Grand Prix last weekend. My wife and I really enjoyed your teams hospitality, and are looking forward to a prosperous relationship.
See you in Sydney next week.
I'm only new to the forex game, I don't really care too much about spreads or the Metatrader 4 platform but service is what I was looking for when I started shopping around for a forex broker last month.
I was told about IC Markets by a friend of mine who has been trading with them for some time now and has been tuning into their regular webinars. She invited me to join her to watch an IC Markets webinar so I did and was impressed enough on the night to open an account the next day.
The service and support that I have received since opening my account has far exceeded my expectations in all regards. Not only do I get personal webinars, last week my account manager sent me a ticket to their corporate box at the football here at Subiaco Oval in Perth.
IC Markets gets 5 stars from me for not being just another online broker but for treating all their customers like first class passengers or should I say traders.
IC Markets rocks, and here are 10 reasons why:
1. Their spreads are tight
2. They are an ECN broker
3. You can use EA's
4. They Allow Hedging
5. Withdrawals are processed fast
6. They are regulated
7. Their server time is GMT
8. Execution speeds are lightning fast
9. Their client service is exceptional
10. And lastly they give out free VPS's for EA traders.
These are just 10 of the reasons that I made IC Markets my forex broker of choice, but don't believe me try them out for yourself!!
My experience with IC Markets has been excellent. Their spreads are sharp, I have even seen EUR/USD with zero spread. Their customer service is top notch and they a fast at processing withdrawals.
For anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy ECN broker IC Markets would be a great choice.
I opened up a forex trading account with IC Markets after meeting one of their staff members at the Ultimate Forex course held by Knowledge to Action in Sydney. Their platform is really easy to use and spreads, well all I can say is WOW, they are by far the tightest that I have ever seen offered by any forex broker in Australia.
I have also found their regular weekly webinars really useful as they explain the basics of the platform including how to place orders and use the charts. The best thing of them all is that these guys are based in Australia and I have a direct line to my account manager, now that's service.
Keep up the good work IC Markets, my wife and I will be telling everyone in our trading group to open up an account.
I have been trading for over 5 years and recently discovered IC Markets after reading some good reviews. My experience so far has been fantastic, IC Markets service and support is outstanding and then there is their platform... IC Markets are and Australian company offering an ECN version of Metatrader 4, a dream solution for most high volume forex traders like myself, I have only been using their platform for 3 months and have found their pricing to be the best that I have experience in my 5 years of trading.
I would highly recommend IC Markets to any high frequency or volume trader.
This is certainly the best Metatrader ECN offering that I have ever used.
