What are spreads like? Are they regulated ? I have not heard of fxbrew before? Sounds more like a brand of beer

Hi All,
Have just been to the reviews on Brokers. I'll ask the question here. For someone in Australia, with a micro account between $250 to $500 dealing with .01 lots, is there any Brokers that come to mine. Thanks Bruce
IC Markets is the best broker in Australia

Looks like a lot of good choices have been listed here...
Just to throw our two cents, I'd look up the brokers in the US, then look up the CFTC info to find ones with good excelss net capital
(https://www.cftc.gov/MarketReports/FinancialDataforFCMs/index.htm)
(https://www.forexing.com/forex-broker-reviews)
then look to see if they operate in Australia.
I would agree from the lists that IBFX AU is good, though my experience has been w/ them in the States. Also, I'd check to see if Oanda operates in AU as well as Forex.com
Cheers,

i have seen In spite of a profitable trading policy scalping cannot use in a reputed trading broker due to many restrictions. So, we the scalpers have to choose the broker which permits scalping including lowest trading spreads.

lol. I do trade in offshore (with turnkeyforex, lmfx, fxchoice in hands) and can recommend the same, but if he's very new to forex and non-US, then I don’t see the need to go offshore.

I am a newbie - been trading for around a year now. I was using Pepperstone for some time and then I switched to LQDFX
I was running two small accounts on both with the same AI and LQDFX is performing better. On top of that they have a better refferal program than Pepperstone where you receive a percentage of the generated commission of the traders you reffered.
In the end I switched completely from Pepperstone to LQDFX and for now I am a happy trader.

if you want to find a right broker, you have to move Forex Pace Army where people share their own trading experience. And EarnForex and Babypips can be a great source to find a right broker nowadays.
I agree, this is the best method to find the reliable offshore broker. I was so dependent on broker list in babypips. According to that popular offshore broker thread, the 5 trusted brokers are:
LMFX
Turnkey Forex
Trader’s Way
FX Choice
Coinexx

According to me, If you love scalping should choose the broker which allows trading concept such as this. Actually scalping success on the lowest trading spreads currency pair. So we the scalpers have to choose the currency pair which has lowest trading spreads. Otherwise that’s not possible at all to make profit with certainly by scalping.

Generally speaking, for a newbie is best to choose a broker with a low minimum deposit so you could trade with real funds while not risking too much. All other respects by according to which you should choose a broker are very similar to what advanced traders are looking for. Opinions on the best brokers for newbies vary, look for a solid trading educational portals like https://brokerchooser.com/, https://tradingbeasts.com/, https://www.investopedia.com/. Each of them recommends different companies, but I believe they are all solid options so check out some reviews and see what company you like the most.
