FXCM's Boston Technologies bridged MT4 platform is a scam

I had a 30K account with them and was happy for several months until they moved all their Metatrader 4 to the UK and forced me to go to the BostonTech Bridged MT4. From there it went downhill and BostonTech is buggy as heck, and I would have to call them every other day to complain about trades that either didn't close in time (1 trade was 9 minutes late after hitting T/P) or they would give me a situation that was beyond their control. I had a trade that I had T/P at 30 pips, and it never closed on the EUR/USD, and two minutes later it was up about 70pips, and I tried manually closing it, and simply wouldn't close. The trade then automatically closed me with only 18pips!! I was outraged, and called them and they compensated me about 45 pips in return. Their services are good, but I suggest you to avoid their MT4 with Bostontech if you are doing high volumn until they fix all their problems.
