Hello Sahil.

Iv used Oanda before, found no problems with them.
I didn't stay with them too long as at the time of using them i was just starting out and did not like the charting options that were available through them.
I now use FXCM and AC-MARKETS.

Happy Trading
Faris...

They are the dogs danglies in my humble opinion. EURUSD spread of 1.8!!! GBP accounts available. What more do you want? Free money?

I've been paper trading with their demo game for a couple of weeks. I like the fact that I can preset my stop, and order bounds in the preferences, so that when I see what I want, I can just click and get in. I'm thinking they might be a good "proof of concept" spot for sample test trading with real money. Long term, I'd prefer a regulated futures broker.

Here's what I was doing with Oanda today. I still need to learn how to sit on my hands! I went to the effort to document all my stupid mistakes today, just so I can remind myself not to do it again!.
I left 1/2 my profits on the table (see trade group 1,2,and 3), just from jumping off the diving board when I should have stayed on the side!
JO.

The first chart is a 3hour chart that covers the last two weeks. The other chart is a 5 minute, and shows all the ugly details.

Well, even on a stupid day I was up +37. so maybe that's not so bad for a beginner.
