What you thought of them? Spreads, execution, slippage, requotes, platform reliability, fund transfers, customer service etc. Anything you have, just wanted to get some thoughts from others before signing up. Tried the demo before but wasn't what I was looking for at the time, will download again.

Thx

Quite a good broker. OK spreads. Execution has always been instant in my experience. No requotes. I can think of a few occasions ive had a little slippage, but not many. Customer service is fine.

They use an Oanda type platfor,. YOu can enter a trade nice and easily and move stops and targets from the chart which is nice.

PLatform reliability - There have been some occasions where your connection dissapears. Doesn't happen very often in fairness, but it has happened.

Fund transfers - Probably the only bad point about them. Everything is by bacnk transfer and it takes about 5 days before money is in your account. Its annoying. They're behind the times in this respect as nearly all brokers do instant credit card payments now. I have emailed them about it but never got a response.

Overall one of the best brokers i've used - would reccomend.

These guys are shutting down their trading service, unfortunately.
Shame. In lots of ways, they were my favourite platform.

Do you know another similar platform ? RBS Marketindex was better than many others I've seen and used since they offered a fairly large selection of CFD products. Most of the other sites offer only spread trading, that is no market index, no commodities, no bonds. Besides marketindex let users click on the chart and place the order very quickly. Would be great to find something very similar.
