Comments on: Advanced Currency Markets (ACM) Review http://compare-forex.com/advanced-currency-markets-acm-review/ Thu, 05 Jan 2012 13:23:37 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: BM http://compare-forex.com/advanced-currency-markets-acm-review/comment-page-1/#comment-3059 BM Mon, 08 Mar 2010 15:56:34 +0000 http://compare-forex.com/?p=54#comment-3059 I have traded a live account for almost a half year at present. Spreads are mostly competitive, execution is pretty incredible to say the least, this has removed the worry of requotes and non exectuded trades. Funding and withdrawal is a breeze via PayPal. Although never tried yet by myself, I have read many good reviews of their new iPhone Mobile trading platform. Replies to e-mails are prompt, informative and polite.

The spreads you see appearing are direct from the liquidity providers themselves and so have a tendancy to fluctuate, especially prior to, during and after any major economic news. The nice thing about ACM though is that it is one of the few brokers whose platform lets you enter a trade during any actual volatile moment, shows a nice combination between their platform technology and number of liquidity providers they use.

The thing about this report is that is old: ACM now has a new platform, the iPhone one. I don’t use it, but is display in their website. Plus those spreads are lower now because they have 6 account types now. http://www.ac-markets.com/online-forex/spread-rates.aspx In conclusion: Great broker :) Regards traders!

The best part is you can use any of these platforms with the same login and password, be it the Advanced Trader, Web trader or Mobile trader. I have been using the conventional java based Advanced trader and it is pretty stable to use from the point of executing quick trades, getting quotes and printing reports. Charting and analysis are both excellent. I could trade more than 30 currency pairs in the platform with a 1% margin, considering that I had to put in $5000 to open this account. Spreads were fixed with EUR/USD being 0.003 pips, but can’t say how much volatility could affect the spreads, simply because didn’t encounter any volatility. Trader support was great, and so was the streaming news that helped me decide on the trade quotes. I am pretty sure that with ACM platform what you click is precisely what you get, which means accuracy is what ACM is all about. And accuracy in forex trading means a lot, because a pip here or a pip there could mean a lot if you were dealing with a big account size. I believe the Web trader platform works very well even behind a firewall, no matter what operating system you could be using whether it is Mac,Linux or Windows. One great thing about their support is, they give it to you even if you were a demo client. That’s precisely what a professional forex broker should be doing. All said and done, a lot many retail forex traders would find the amount required to open an account on the higher side.

Besides, forex forums like goforex.net have got a lot of positive reviews of ACM, may be to intentionally jack up a positive image of the broker.So that's something to be concerned about. Hope ACM gets their house in order especially after this: http://www.swisster.ch/en/news/business/police-raid-geneva-forex-firm-in-fraud-probe_116-1451105 ACM used to be ok earlier on, but of late yes the ACM platforms don’t look stable nor is the quote realisticaly pipped for trading.

They have 4 platforms and no one work properly. They are mentioned on the web site that they get – “Best Forex trading platform 2009”. How they get this award? I am the customer of this broker. Nobody was asking me. The problems is : - Always take a long time to start the any platform; - The price is always going up for 4-5 pips compare with others brokers, but when the bar is closing the price is coming down and closing price will be the same. - You can not open the stop order very close to real price. - Sometimes the graphic chart is working, but the rest of the thing is frozen. And you can not do anything, only you have to switch off and start again. And it will take again a long time. - Closing the order – taking long time. So you are loosing few pips. The deal did not take place immediately. - For me the graphic chart is not very clear and not comfortable compare to others. The most most worst broker in the world.
