The Safest forex Broker?

a lot of this will depend on what sort of amounts you are looking to put into your account !

Yes Hittfeld, that is correct. Be aware that the major FX brokers in Switzerland, Dukas, MIG and of course ACM have all had their applications for the banking license accepted and approved by FINMA, if all goes ahead as explained to us clients, these should be handed out near the end of this year, ergo clients accounts will be protected to the amount mentioned before.

I've heard of the swiss brokers applying, but haven't heard of them being approved. Have there been press releases about it?

Sorry Jason, what i mean is that the applications were good enough to be accepted before the deadline. To be honest, I don't see MIG having problems, nor my broker ACM neither, that I base on the service they have given me as well as their platform. If they have signed up to offer MT4 soon, they must obviously be 100% confident in receiving that license. Dukas should be ok but I have heard the odd rumor regarding them, some questions are apparently being raised regarding the way their net capital is made up, or something (I read in another forum)but I would imagine it would go through.

No problem. Was just curious

Anyone yet tried the Dukas Fapturbo swiss edition, or the ACM MT4 yet?

We had all heard the Fap/Dukas hype as well as the MT traders out there talk about the arrival of these two. So now let's see if there are any initial rections yet.

Thanks for the posts guys.

FYI I do not touch Forex anymore as I found it impossible to make money from.


I would just like to say that how can you trust this now bull market (according to dow theory) rally when the bail out bill gave $23 trillion of taxpayers money(source: zerohedge) to wall street and wall street have driven the prices up presumably with this money. It gives a whole new meaning to the fox guarding the hen house.

At the mo I've got all my money out of the 2 U.S brokers I use as I believe this rally is going to end badly (as is the case with most parabolic moves).

Simply put the war bells are ringing for Iran and(imo) an attack is imminent within a month(could be a pos for markets long term but at this oversold condition I think it can only create downward pressure in the short term), coupled with a highly likely 'No' vote for the Irish with the lisbon treaty which markets won't react well to this as it will cause uncertainty to the future structure of the EU.

Please be careful with your money at your brokers.
