I neede to give FXCM's micro trading platform a fair review

I felt I needed to give FXCM a fair review. I use the Micro Trading Platform as I like that particular platform.

So if your new to FX Trading don't open a live account without trying the demo for at least a couple of months. Understand what drives the market and use the market data.

I've never done forex trading before so I got a book about it and worked the demo for a couple of months. I still use the demo as I'm trying to get the Japanese Yen understood and I still struggle.

I don't bet on anything that I don't understand.

Here's reality. FXCM's trading platform's are not the best. They mess up. However using the stop loss and profit limit will get you what money you want and give you some security. I agree that the programs need to be better but FXCM seem to be working on updates and in the last three months I have noticed that it is getting better.

FXCM is definitely not a scam. I have received over $250,000 in many transactions and the longest I have had to wait for it is 4 days.

Do not listen to bad reviews on here. Chances are that people are not very sensible and just bet whatever way they want. I do this full time and I make an extremely comfortable living out of this.

Surely if this was a scam someone would have reported it to the NFA and the SEC who would have done something. Yes the pips aren't the greatest but they're trying to make a living to.
