I've never had spread higher than 3 pip with FXCM

I have been using FXCM for over a year now and have had no problems at all.

They allways pay, have good spreads. I usually just trade either eur/usd or gbp/usd, and never had a spread higher than 3 pip.

If I was going to say something negative is that the trading software is requires a bit of power from the computer, and tends to hang a bit if you have a slow prosessor. But this is a typical problem I have had on my old computer with any system e.g metatrader, fxnet and others.

So if your going to have your computer on studying the market, get a good computer and a good internet connection.

And the most st*pid thing I have ever read is that the broker makes more money if you lose? The broker isn't making any money on losing trades, it's just losing the money you deposited and traded on Bad trades! the only thing they make money on is the pip spread + interest on bad trades. but if your trade is a winner you get interest on the good trades.

That is one of the main reasons I use fxcm, because they give people a fair deal.
