  4. makes no difference.

    once a bucket shop, always a bucket shop.

    you can put lipstick on a pig and it is still a pig.

    FXCM manipulation of the mt4 quote server has been exposed.

    you lost the trust of the retail trading crowd a long time ago.

    the bullshit continues.

    BTW, congrats on being named to ambassador.

    Review: I had a past experience with FXCM of a 'Margin Call' which was really only triggered as they changed margin levels per currency pair without notice and then when applied retrospectively to my open trades took me into margin default. Only applying them to new trades post margin change would have saved the account. When asked, I was told it was my job to check FXCM's website and they are under no obligation to inform of margin change.

    So this was generally acknowledged as a crafty retrospective scam tactic of FXCM to trigger margin calls and harvest your funds.

    'You be warned you will hopefully avoid'

    2012-08-20 2Star Hi FPA Readers

    I wonder if anyone out there has also suffered my fate with this FXCM scam? Basically I had been trading for a few years with FXCM – intermittently and I do not profess to be a good trader, but my own trading was always at acceptable risk levels. I was in some trades recently when market went against me and I went into some losing positions, but well within my account size and then out f the blue I suddenly get the emails below from FXCM. So they waited while I was in drawdown to close my account and close my positions while negative to take my funds. Funds were not lost in trading but through what is said to be a legitimate FXCM business action.

    No explanation was offered when I kindly asked to wait until I got my trades into a positive position before my account was closed, albeit obviously FXCM would not have made any money in this instance. Had they have let me, I would have been less inclined to see this as a scam.

    Is this common in this lightly broker regulated market?

    To me, I feel it is a deliberate and very underhand scam and perhaps this is a subject for the Traders Court, but I simply put it here to see if it is a normal or regular action of this or any other large broker or see if anyone can explain a rationale for their actions?

    Hi Trader Gaz,

    I cannot comment on the specifics of your case in a public forum, but rest assured that if you lodged a formal complaint with us then you will receive a formal response from our Compliance department. If you have any follow questions regarding this, you can email them directly at compliance@fxcm.com. However, I can speak generally and say that FXCM would never close an account for being profitable. Our on No Dealing Desk forex execution model we immediately offset the risk on the other side of client orders with 10+ liquidity providers. That means we don't stand to lose from client profits or profit from client losses. We want our clients to be profitable, so they will keep trading with us and we can keep making money off the trading volume they generate.

    is kind of propaganda for professional sector

    they need new mass retail client's




    Probability of winning

    The chances of winning a lottery jackpot can vary widely depending on the lottery design, and are determined by several factors, including the count of possible numbers, the count of winning numbers drawn, whether or not order is significant, and whether drawn numbers are returned for the possibility of further drawing.
    In a simple 6-from-49 lotto, a player chooses six numbers from 1 to 49 (no duplicates are allowed). If all six numbers on the player's ticket match those produced in the official drawing (regardless of the order in which the numbers are drawn), then the player is a jackpot winner. For such a lottery, the chance of being a jackpot winner is 1 in 13,983,816.
    In bonusball lotteries where the bonus ball is compulsory, the odds are often even lower. In the Mega Millions multi-state lottery in the United States, 5 numbers are drawn from a group of 56 and 1 number is drawn from a group of 46, and a player must match all 6 balls to win the jackpot prize. The chance of winning the jackpot is 1 in 175,711,536.
    The odds of winning can also be reduced by increasing the group from which numbers are drawn. In the SuperEnalotto of Italy, players must match 6 numbers out of 90. The chance of winning the jackpot are 1 in 622,614,630.[11]
    Most lotteries give lesser prizes for matching just some of the winning numbers. The Mega Millions game gives a payout (US$2) if a player matches only the bonus ball. The weekly 6/49 lottery operated by the ILLF[citation needed] offers a two-ball cash prize, for which the odds is 1 in 6.63. In the UK National Lottery the smallest prize is £10 for matching three balls.
    Matching more numbers, the payout goes up. Although none of these additional prizes affect the chances of winning the jackpot, they do improve the odds of winning something and therefore add a little to the value of the ticket. On the other hand, multiple smaller prizes usually mean smaller jackpots. It is common for the jackpot to be split evenly if multiple players have tickets with all the winning numbers.
