| Great customer service, platform does freeze, charts slow...but if a dumb ex jock lol (baseball) can take a demo acct up 400% twice in 4 months anyone can! But one thing about us ex-baseball playes we love, rhythm, technique and method - going 1-3 for 23 years has paid off mentally! |

| These guys are the worst Forex criminals I have ever encountered! They are a BIG Fraud! If you are a novice investing small amounts, then they will play havoc with your trades and will ruin you in a very short time. I have been using them live for over a year now, and no matter what I did, they ALWAYS traded against me! All the bad comments you've been reading about them are true and more! I have been demoing with an ECN broker during the same period with similiar trading strategy and managed to double my account there, but at Forex.com I lost everything! Beware, and stay far away from this so-called broker!! |

| Been with them 18 months. Fast executions and dependable spreads. Spreads higher than some but at least you know what they are. Free eSignal charts a big plus. |

| Their guarantee on Stop Loss order is fake. Once my SL order was executed after 25 points. But in case if your Take profit order is delayed, you will not get a penny extra. It will go to their account. |

| They do not trade against you: the market trades against you. I checked the live quotes comparing them to other brokers: there is absolutely no difference between the Forex.com prices, the Saxo Bank prices, FXCM prices, etc... so they are not moving against you, you are trading against the market. I only had one problem with the spreads in 6 months, it was right after the weekend and Thanksgiving Day and lasted about 30 mins, time during which the NZD/USD spread increased to 7 pips for example. The only slippage problem I witnessed in the last 6 months: when NZD came off 150 pips on Fin. Min. Cullen's comments from 0.6650 to 0.6500 I think, the first minutes after the comments were highly volatile and indeed it took some seconds to square the long position, but I think the liquidation was made at the market price available in the second I pushed the button. They have some excellent piece of profit-producing research: when you say they go against you, have you ever tried trading their research? (they are entering positions with surgical precision) and - off the record - they're up about 700 pips from the start of December (today is Dec 30 2006) and remember that in December most traders are on holiday-mode. They may lose 2 weeks in a row, but what they lose in 2 weeks win back in only one trade. I am making money with them: I started with 500$ and traded only their research because I was completely new to Forex 6 months ago. But I have a friend who started in August 2006 with 250$ and by now he is up about 4000$ (we live in Romania, if Forex.com would go against someone, they will definetly choose foreigners first). I think this is the best broker for Mini accounts: don't know if you can start with 250$ and end up with a Ferrari in 2 years, but if you want some financial freedom, Forex.com is the best place to start. |

| This one is by far the worst one! Stay far far away from them! They trade against you and move the price up and down to make you get out of your position or to get in on the trade. Charts do not sync to the bid/ask quotes. Meaning in addition to the 3 pips that they gain from you for eur/usd, they gain several more pips in addition. Horrible customer service, can be very rude and annoying. |

| We are new and green to FX. After reading the "Bill of Rights for FX", we now realize the importance when choosing a broker/dealer. Trading with "Pimps for Pips" can prove costly and frustrating! READ & RESEARCH. |

Pros : Good research, good customer service on the phone. Cons : Prehistoric application, the commentary that jerks up to the beginning every few seconds gives a headache on long updates. I would not even dare to try their Trade API. Basically very poor IT, but worth keeping an account for the research. |

| This broker should be avoided if you want to make any money trading the Forex. Their customer service is terrible. Their web-based trading platform is boring, prehistoric and has mispelled words ie. "realised gains". Their spreads are consistently in the 6-8 pip range away from the live price. I would avoid these people at all cost. |
