The first thing that I look are the spreads and then regulation. But even regulated brokers can scam you so this isn't a measure really.. And if the broker offers a nice deposit bonus with good conditions thats even better :D

I prefer broker which offers great range of currency pair including major currency pair to trade, forex demo account, real account with free bonus (as most of the brokers offer), easy Withdraw policy, mini account or macro account for starting with low investment. These are my some points that I look for in brokers.

I'm looking for brokers with tight spreads, low commission, ECN execution, regulation, good rebates... etc. I think these are the most important.

Good customer service support is also another consideration in picking a broker. Select a broker that has 24/7 customer service.

You can find a good forex broker recommendations from various sources, but before you invest your money, it helps us to find out more about the credibility of the broker is concerned, both regulations, customer service, security of our funds, servers, financial transactions and much more . It is better to try the performance of the server with the usual free account offered by the broker

I learned of the incident yesterday, As we may already know, yesterday morning there was a very sudden and massive move in Swiss Franc pairs. CHF pairs have never seen this record-high volatility.Within few moments EURCHF dropped to below 1 from an early morning solid-high above 1.20. Other CHF pairs experienced similar extreme moves seen with EURCHF.

What does it mean for traders?

Of course, it was a golden-opportunity for many traders to earn quite a lot. Clients of many brokers, however, were not able to profit from this move due to requotes and rejects. Many brokers have started to cancel Client profits with reference to various causes and contract conditions. We are very sorry to see that happening!

In my broker, Tickmill. i have a good experience. Because as always, They didn’t issue a single re-quote and they Clients can keep their profits in their pockets. They are proud to report that it is business as usual at Tickmill as client trading and all other processes are going normally.

True, what happened yesterday makes traders cry and also happy. traders are crying because spreads widened suddenly and makes movement down drastically and could not save her account. at that time many traders who had large profit and make withdrawals which caused some brokers experiencing liquidity problems, but it is different with Tickmill where the broker is safe from the impact volality CHF

Scalping is one of the best ways to get the maximum profit. However, not all brokers allow it especially for the type of account outside the ECN. I now use in TenkoFx PAMM ECN account with a minimum deposit is only $ 100 which can be used to trade with scalping without limitation

I get a profit in the forex business using scalping techniques. I opened and closed the trading no more than 2 minutes. I need the speed of execution and low spreads to gain maximum profit. I am now comfortable trading with this system in my broker

The right broker means they have filled your needs and satisfied your expectation. As if for me, I have been to different brokers, fortunately pleased and contented with TenkoFx services. Very flexible especially for small traders.

It has outstanding offers that include the low spread of 0.2 pips for all major pairs and amazing customer service that’s available 24 hours to help us.
convenience of trading is expected by traders because of the psychological trading will be maintained. Trader should use a broker that provides a sense of comfort and security so that they can perform their best trading strategies without any restrictions.
