Feel free to ignore fx.wizzard's comments(not that there will be anymore coming now:D), turns out stawned wasn't happy just complaining about go with the one username, he thought that a 2nd was required to try and carry on with it. Nothing like an army of unhappy customers....at the one computer!

Classic. What a tosser!!

Nice catch!!

Chris - Thanks for putting up with these sort of idiots and continuing to post here - the VAST majority of us (as well as many potential clients I'm sure) do appreciate it!
 
wow

thnx for the pic TH, i think need a new broker.

Hows IB's for uptime and easy of transferring in and out funds?
 
Just something to mull over boys,

What is the minimum size per trade with IB?

Also i understand it is a 15K deposit to open an account but do you have to maintain a 15K minimum or is that just for the initial opening?
 
at that rate? about 7,000.:eek:

Stormin if you exit trades via a Take Profit order you have no idea how much it actually cost you. I'm very serious.

I like what Go are trying to do in Oz. But if you move largish lot sizes frequently you shouldn't use this type of broker.

By the way Chris thanks for putting up with the joker. Most likely a blown up trader or a dodgy Bucket shop.
 
Guys,

Just to inform you before he posts hundreds of negative comments but we have found and closed Stawned's trading account with us because of unfair play by registering another username to probably complain further about us.
We dont like doing this and its completely out of character but we must keep things honest in this game.
keep posting guys and we will be happy to answer and we are on the case with regard to the spreads, its not us but we are talking to Currnenex to get this rectified asap.

Those found to be operating multiple accounts are immediately suspended from ASF on a permanent basis. Both accounts associated with this individual have now been disabled.
 
TH you are right, the GoTs Fx spreads i've seen to date have not been good. IGs seem better. And futures are the best.

GoTs real time Fx simulator seems good though, useful for testing ideas.

And i like the speed with which the GoT platform opens, like lightening .
Cant wait to get you trading it seems.

I recently opened a Live acct with GO, looking to run EA's (they advertised that they are welcome), but the spreads are too large for the EA to operate efficiently so far (as a comparison it worked on a demo with FXCBS on MT4 the same day). BTY, 9 - 10 pip spreads on GBP/JPY is a bit rich IMHO during London session. I will have to go back to IG Markets :( if the spreads don't improve and look for another broker for my EA. The only features I liked on IG Markets is the easy money transfer TO and FROM acct as well as low spreads, but their charting tools are the worst I have seen (IMHO).
BTY, I am not advertising for any of the brokers, I'm just trying to find a decent one to trade with seriously. Any suggestions or experiences are welcome. What about CMC? I have an acct with them as well, but not very impressed with them (maybe it's just me) - just too difficult to change and use anything on it.
cheers
 
Holy crap over 6 on GU quite often tonight wow thats terrible.
Orders have been going through ok lately tho so thats good but gee I dont want to trade coz of the spread.
 
data providers very rarely produce these sorts of ticks, bucket shops do it routinely.

Those spikes are very annoying for all concerned! They have come through directly on to the platform but of course are incorrect.

Any trades affected will have the appropriate action taken (reopened/zeroed etc). We are currently going through and correcting trades, but of course some may slip through the net, so I ask anyone who has been caught out to give me a call. Best to ask for me directly as I am dealing with this. The spikes have been removed from the server, but it will not immediately disappear form charts. You will most likely need to wait for the next restart of the server and then reload your charts.

Again, I note that someone says this makes us a bucketshop, so thanks for that! As I said, all trades are being corrected, which I would say is hardly the work of a bucket shop, but oh well.

With reference to the wider spreads, we are still talking to the feed provider to get this sorted. However, in order to make them as competitive as possible we have, after discussion with our providers, been able to significantly reduce our spread markup in the interim and be rest assured that spreads will return to normal ASAP.
