I was trading with FXCM for quite some time now. The only complain to FXCM is the time they transfer our withdrawal, it took about a week for the money to be deposited into my bank account. Other than that, its a wonderful experience. And great trading platform. Thumbs up!

When I started I was lost about 450 USD and I keep learning about trading in forex, then 3 months I got 320 USD and I`m very happy with my tradings, spreads are very good and withdrawal also great.
I`m very happy with them and I according me they are best broker there.

I haven't got any experience with this broker, I just found this article: FXCM banned by CFTC after taking positions against clients ( http://www.marketwatch.com/story/fxcm-banned-by-cftc-after-taking-positions-against-clients-2017-02-06?mod=mw_share_twitter )

I want to share my experience with FXCM as well.
Been trading with them for approx. half a year now. The overall experience is more or less disappointing.
I am running a scalping approach, which is identically running on several other brokers (all DMA!) in parallel, and although Jason is not getting tired of repeating the large amount of liquidity providers, the execution and filling at FXCM is far from competitive, despite which numbers he is presenting.
Average slippage of 1-2 pips is regular and as I can see, that others can do better, it is somehow disillusioning - especially as FXCM is charging a comparable high amount of commission for that unsatisfactory liquidity!
Next to that I am using a rebate service for the account, where delays caused by FXCM are happening almost every month.
All in all I am thinking about switching my deposit to one of my other brokers, as there are better alternatives out there.
Sorry, but especially for scalping not recommended.

Nice, broker.Good spreads and execution. Had good experience with them.

FXCM is very old and reliable broker, with many licenses. But still it's a market maket that will always be against you. So i advise you to choose only true STP/ECN brokers where conflict of interest will not exist.

This is mostly for US traders as we seem to have sooo few options thanks to wonderful regulations by govt. FXCM seems to get beat up quite frequently. Maybe it's fair? I hear on blogs that they are "broke" & will file bankruptcy soon but aren't they the biggest in FX? That doesn't mean it can't happen I just don't know. I certainly can't comment on other ppls' experience but I've been with FXCM for 4yrs now and have over 1500 trades with them. Their platform stability has improved substantially the last few yrs so I have had very few glitches & can't remember any freezing in the past year or 2. I spend upwards of 4hrs a day on it. I really like their charting as it offers many different looks & tools & like being able to trade from the charts. If someone has a better platform for charting, let me know, plz. I can only remember one or 2 occurrences of "slippage" in the past 50+ trades (one was quite a few pips, the other was negligible). I don't like that recently they have started charging $10 per month unless I keep $1500 in my acct. I could eliminate this by going with the dealing desk but who wants to do that & if I can't make $ on $500 why would I add another $1K. BTW, I just withdrew $100 yesterday and it is showing up in my bank today which is a plus. So, although I continue to look at other options, FXCM isn't so bad.
