General Discussion

Here I read
How do I register for a demo account?
Demo accounts will be available to all clients who download the software on the MetaTrader home page.
http://www.fxcm.com/metatrader-platform.jsp

But demo server is unavailable. No way to have a demo account?

Multiple Accounts?

Do I understand these items correctly?
  • You can NOT access the same account through MT4 and TradeStation.
  • The MT4 account is a minimum of $2k to open.

To transfer your FXCM Mini account into a MetaTrader account you must simply fill out the MetaTrader transfer form. I have attached the transfer form to this thread for your convenience. Please note that this is the transfer form for FXCM LLC (FXCM US Accounts). There is a separate form required if you hold an account with FXCM LTD (FXCM UK).

The MT4 software allows for a maximum deviation setting. Therefore, if you allow a range for 10 pips, you can be filled at any price within this range. If however you set your market deviation to 0 you may receive a requote if you are unable to be filled at this price.
