    ETX Capital

    Thanks, Rob. I've definitely had nothing from ETX, neither email or voicemail. Strange, because I'm getting your monthly account statements without any problems. I;m pretty busy at the moment dealing with my main cliant, who has ordered 3 special servers with all the software etc pre-installed...

    "Two World Wars and one World Cup" Boring, mostly chanted by skinhead fascists who would have run a mile if they'd been called to fight for their country.

    ETX Capital

    I had no problems with ETX when I was using them, their charting package was the best around at the time, their executions were done in less than a second most times, and their spreads were equal to or, in some cases, better than those of their competitors, which is why I was sorry to leave...

    ETX Capital

    Apparently it flags up on your software as an Electron card and your accounts can't handle that. I'm looking at it now and it definitely is a Visa Debit, no mention of Electron on it.

    ETX Capital

    I would love to trade with ETX, I was doing so up until a couple of years ago, and I loved their trading platform, until I changed my Bank. Now they won't accept my Co-operative Bank Visa debit card for payments, I'm told I have to do a Bank transfer. This takes far too long, can be up to 4...

    Forex Knight Rider

    Anyone heard of this scalping robot? Too good to be true, almost certainly, but cheap! http://www.forexknightrider.com/special17.html

    Hello all

    As everyone else is saying, spreads are far too wide. Why should I sign-up with Spreadex when my Capital and ETX accounts, for example, have much narrower spreads. It would be pointless!

    Heads Up - ETX 100 quid

    Hey, Rob, are you planning to do another £100 offer? I passed your last offer to a mate of mine who signed-up at the end of December and got the £100 in his account, but he had to go into hospital (broke his leg palying football, silly sod!) and when he came out and logged in to his account the...

    IG Index - getting greedier and greedier...

    Whilst I don't have the experience to argue in any depth I'd be interested as to your source of "at least 90% of SB "clients" lose". Where did this figure come from? I'm not trolling, but since you used the words "the great spreadbetting myth" I'd like to know why your 90% figure might not also...

    IG Index - getting greedier and greedier...

    I see quite a few posts from people stating this POV over a number of SB brokers and it still puzzles me. Surely SB brokers make their money on the spread, at least I have been told so by trading managers, so why would any of them want your account to be reduced to zero?

    ETX - free seminar

    ETX are having another one of their free seminars, in London on 19 May. I've been to one of these and they're informative and interesting. Probably best for beginners like me, but if you're looking at various brokers for CFD, Spreadbetting or spot contracts it might pay to look into it and meet...

    can anyone recommend a 1 tick FTSE spreadbetting platform

    I just love the ETX platform... A list of your chosen portfolio at the top, with all the relevant links and prices, in the middle the row of trading Buy/Sell buttons you have programmed, and at the bottom a list of open positions, with tabs for Closed Positions, Trade History, Order Book and...
