Re: What Broker Are You Using and Why?

I use Cannes Capitol Advisors. They offer impressive leverage (20:1 for day trading, and 10:1 overnight). They have a low minimum. They are a small firm here in NYC, and I have found them to be very flexible, accessible.

Re: What Broker Are You Using and Why?

I am using aaafx and the reasons are 4-fold:

no commission with the auto-trading platform
low slippage with providers
reasonable spreads.
Fast execution.

So you like your broker because you can deposit via credit card and paypal and webmoney at the same time?...intersting..

btw all brokers now have 24hrs around the week support.

I think you should concentrate more on trade executions and commissions and spreads, when you choose a brokerage firm, not on the logistics.

Re: What Broker Are You Using and Why?

thats why you are using avafx? sounds weird. i use it because i find it more reliable that the other brokers. because i can withdraw my money from my trading account and be sure it will get to my bank account, also because i know its well regulated.

finding a reliable broker isn't a easy task to do, i had some bad experience with other brokers, believe me.. so its not only about leverage or minimum rates for me (though what avafx provide are really fine) but more about using the broker i trust more. and it takes time to test it.
