  1. Its all functional surf...you will get accustomed to it...Constantly, they are upgrading in beta features as we speak....it takes them a while to let something into FXTrade however....they never test anything on the real platform...it must go through Beta...then Game....then finally it will get released in Trade...

  2. I think the lack of feel good fuzzy bunny colors does not in any way shape or form outweigh their numerous benefits.

  4. Well Yes...I do :)

    give it a chance surf...everything when it is new...is hard...

    If you live with it for a while you will see all the functionality that they offer. I use almose every feature....it is a true academic platform, offering everything you need...

  5. Well, my friend, I don't consider myself a pro yet, and I can only speak for myself.

    I doubt that ES would consider himself a pro, however, if you believe his results, I'd say he's probably one of the many consistent traders on here that uses Oanda.

  6. ok, savant.


    it's just painful to look at, but you are right, that has nothing to do with executions,etc. very mickey mouse looking.

  7. I know of one "pro' who holds >$1mm on deposit with OandA in a seg-account. OandA is the only dealer I've seen in which exotics can be traded with such fine resolution; 5minutes to 6months on tenors.
