Overall
Oanda is where I have a LIVE account (micro) and it has been up for a year now. as far as my experience with them - I have no problem at all. There were times I have concerns raised in their support and they are sincere and determined to let me understand the situation. I appreciate their sincerity. I am confident when I would open a larger amount, They can be trusted.
Overall
Excellent Broker. I had a program written in C++ specifically for Oanda and Interactive Brokers. API plug in works seamlessly, excellent spreads, good customer service, and I like the platform. Just wish they had MT4 so EAs could run on it. Their API fee is high ($600 a month) but the cost is offset with lots traded. Still, the API fee makes them less competitive with other brokers that use Meta4. Their platform would go down from time to time, but the API stayed connected. Good people.
Overall
Very good broker. You can alway use MT4 for chart and trade on Oanda!!

Un ottimo broker, da quando ho aperto un account con Oanda, ho migliorato sensibilmente anche la mia operatività😉
Overall
the best broker i know the spread on EUR/USD remains constant at 0.9 pips. But the platform doesn't respect the Stop Loss and Take Profit orders very acuratly, they tend to rise a few pips 0.5 - 3 pips
Overall
Best broker out there. Highly recommended.
Overall
Reliable and honest broker.
Overall
Fairly reliable platform, tight spreads are the pluses. Limited trading platform functionality, charts, order entries/types flexibility are a downside. I am using FXManager for managed account, simple but fairly complete, certain functions are not very intuitive, especially the allocation system. They do not seem to be very eager on improving the trading platform, but I'll take tight spreads and platform reliability as priority over other feature enhancements.
Overall
i agree i have used them for 4 years without any major problems and the ones i did have they took care of professionally love them charting sucks and mobile platform sucks but i can at least trust them with real money
Overall
going for 10 yrs now, no problem.
my oanda review at http://spyfrat.wordpress.com/?s=oanda
Overall
Using since last October. No complaints!
Overall
after 8 years of being with them, I may say they are genuinely fair and responsible to a trader. Also reliable, if we forget occasional problems with server (especially during news announcements). I have had several cases where I wasn't able to close my trade, or a sudden spike triggered my stop. They settled all disputes in my favor (real acc).
So my only wish with them is to improve server capacity for access worldwide. Of course, platform could be abit modernized. And yes, full mobile trade apps with charting is a must (iPhone etc)
I think reliability always starts with the fact who owns company. If an owner is reliable, so is the company.

i agree reg oanda news. Especially the FxNow! updates from 4cast ltd at oanda are world class educational wise, they are very good at describing what was the reason for things just happened, and what to look out for. It's my first news source to go to when markets do something i did not expect, and i wonder why. Stuff like this
"A good start to the week for model and futures names, who have made quite an aggressive push at downside stops on a number of the majors, as equity futures prices fell in tandem. Stops at 1.48 on EUR/USD didn't appear to have bothered the scorers much, but a quick glance at 1.4775 was enough to bring a buyer back into the marketplace. Not confirmed yet, but suspicions that an Asian sovereign name might be that buyer are widespread. C.F"
DJ market talk at oanda sometimes also have a few good points like this "The dollar has pushed broadly higher in European trading, extending the gains it made Friday after a stronger-than-expected employment reading, pushing the euro under $1.48 for the first time in a month. Sterling is also lower, trading below $1.64. The buck is also higher against Canadian, Australian and New Zealand dollars. However, further gains against the yen are proving tough to make. Exporter selling in USD/JPY is offering a near-term barrier around Y90, where the dollar is now trading. (KJM)"
