One reason that many traders love FXCM is because of their Straight Through Processing dealing model. This means that when you place a trade it is passed right into the open market. Then another trader or bank will take the opposite side of your trade. What this means for you is that your trades will be passed through anonymously, which is something some scalpers prefer.

The Metatrader platform at FXCM welcomes all EA's and offers a competitive pricing structure. You'll even be able to get in depth 5 digit pricing for maximum spread accuracy.

If all this wasn't enough, FXCM also offers a great Metatrader hosting service (VPS). With this VPS you'll be able to access your Metatrader platform from any computer with an internet connection. This great tool is offered completely free to you when you open an account at FXCM through TradersChoiceFX.

FXCM, like GAIN, is also a publicly traded company. They are a huge and very well capitalized company which means you can sleep well at night knowing your funds are safe. Ask one of their thousands of satisfied customers and they will tell you the same.

FXCM offers 24-hour customer support that has proven to be a cut above the rest in the industry. Their support team is very in smart and easily accessible.

FXCM also is a US based company with branch offices across the globe. As a trader living in the United States, you will be able to use FXCM US. If you're located outside of the United States, you can use either FXCM US or the FXCM UK option.

Both offices are excellent and offer all of the great benefits mentioned above. On top of this FXCM UK offers leverage of 200:1 and fully segregated accounts. Since FXCM UK is regulated by the FSA, these segregated accounts offer increased security of your funds.
