Finally, today I received every penny of my Alpari account, via ETX. :) CFX.

I think they were doing it in stages based on how simple the claim is I think. If you had any trades open in CHF pairs that would delay it maybe. Try emailing the address on the administers website.

Received my email to access the claims portal today. Logged on and the balance is exactly as I thought it should be. I had open positions when they popped so was fearing the worst... Strangely even though I am agreeing with the amount they have advised it states it may be quicker to apply for...

Anyone visited the Alpari website recently...

I already have an account with GKFX and IG and I was running demo's on FXPro and FXCM... IG I've used for years and have been pretty good. GKFX my EA doesn't run properly on their MT4 platform for some reason so I need to get that fixed. FXCM have been bailed out so hopefully they are now...

I've just written off getting anything for a few months... these things are always going to take time. Lessons I've learnt... I'm opening accounts with a couple more brokers so I can split my capital and I'll run them as lean as I can. I can always add funds to meet margin if needed without...

I Spread bet using MT4 and was using Alpari as my main broker but also used GKFX live and FXPro as a demo. I think they are the only SB's that you can use MT4 to trade with... might be wrong... Both OK although GKFX can be a bit of a pain to withdraw from as they will only let you withdraw...

"Retail client funds continue to be segregated in accordance with FCA rules. - See more at: http://www.alpari.co.uk/client-updates/notifications/posts/2015/january/important-announcement#sthash.bj8gELei.dpuf" Not sure how this actually works... how quick you can get money out etc...

You're kidding... small mercies... I've been a bit short on cash over xmas and have had to withdraw quite a bit out... not great but it could have been a lot worse!!

Thankfully I was up at the time. Bigger issue is that I run an EA on a number of pairs which takes a couple of weeks to dial in and so I'll be starting from scratch again. And might end up absorbing a few losses for a couple of weeks before seeing profit again... Which is annoying :/ Maybe...

Same thing has happened to me... trying to open a trade manually it says that trading is disabled...
