Fxcess

Pros: The work of trading service. Execution that is hard to nitpick about. Slippage never happened, nor the requotes. I could be sure that orders are executed on the entered price and limit orders triggered on accurate levels.

Cons: Spreads on standard account is not mid. Frankly expected something around 0.7-1 for eurusd in the London session. The actual numbers were higher than my expectations. Paying commissions on ecn account, while having spreads close to zero, wasn’t the option

Overall: Satisfied with broker’s main job. Maybe not the cheapest broker but reliable. I’ve made many withdrawals, up to 1k to believe them.

Pros: I have the impression that this platform is best fit for experienced traders - Pmam platform included, trading central integrated, affiliate program available

Cons: The only area they come short is the solely reliance on the mt4 trading app

Overall: Can’t exaclty remember how i did discover this platform, but when i opened an account just said let me give it a try. Started with a small deposit and pretty quick i was convinced that the platform is solid. The trading central integration is spot on. I didn’t use any deposit on my first trading account, but once i decided to get things serous here, i used the 100% deposit bonus on my ECN trading account. In short, i recommend this platform based on my excellent experience so far

Pros: has decent tools, mt, and all the instruments I would want - forex, metals, indices, commodities, futures, shares.. Also supports pmam I guess if you're into that, I'm not though.
The software itself, top, much better than bootlegged platforms many companies resort to for whatever reasons.

Cons: Not many extra features, aside from the main soft. Also, no futures or options, so if you watn to explore beyond the cfd safe zone, you cant here.

Overall: For half a year used this mainly, programming my own EAs and seeing how other people do their stuff. Profitability dependso n the market conditions, not just the quality of the robot you've constructed to trade, but mine performed well on stocks this year - from the rebound in April, all the way to September.
Not sure how my strat would perform in a full-on bear market though, but thats not a slight to Fxcess in either case.

Pros: It’s noticeable that Fxcess has been working in this industry for many years because their quality of trading services is top-notch. The way I opened the ECN account was smooth and completed the KYC procedure in less than an hour.
Also, I’ve seen a lot of comments about how other traders took advantage of their bonuses. So of course I couldn’t miss the opportunity to take the most of it. I chose a power bonus because it’s easier to meet the terms and conditions there than on a sharing bonus, and I didn’t want to share my profits with the broker. xD

Cons: It’s quite strange that Fxcess didn’t manage to add the MetaTrader 5 for all that time, I’m pretty sure there were a lot of complaints about it and I hope one day they will fix this problem.

Overall: Mainly I’m trading european currencies like EURUSD, GBPUSD and others since the DXY index is in downtrend and you can see how much space we have for collapse, I think it will reach 90 points in the future, hence, I’m very bullish about EUR/USD, I never go short, just only long positions. To my surprise when I was holding overnight positions, I didn’t lose a lot on swap fees.

Pros: The main advantage is the quality work of all important systems. The platform, deposit and withdrawals, order processing or the extent that support helps. All was designed and implemented, so I faced no major flaws.

Cons: In comparison to some other platforms I’ve seen, not the big range of features. Not the best assets selection and additional ways of investing, like copy trading for example that they used to have btw.

Overall: 2 years and still there. There was a reason of course. I open my trades. If it works, get my withdrawals by credit card. Nothing complicated, they set a good environment for simple trading which I much appreciated.

Pros: Trading conditions+ quality in executions made my trading there. Nothing odd, only solid essentials fr

Cons: Personally, no cons. As for the brokerage they did their job quite well.

Overall: I can call myself their long loyal customer. Just executed my trading strategy for gold, eur and gbp and then withdraw. It serves its mission.

Pros: It’s great that the platform is both for pc and mobile, makes trading easier from several gadgets. Plus, it has a large number of tools for making technical analysis

Cons: Not sure if it’s my old phone or the app, but it lags. Especially, when i’m searching for the assets and moving around them.

Overall: Overall it’s great not gonna lie. The platform is legendary and works for many years, but what makes it great is the ease of use. It’s a simple platform for anyone

Pros: Simple platform, very transparent treading conditions, and excellent overall service. The mt4 app runs like a new car :)

Cons: The payment methods integrated to their platform are limited, and they could use a bit of extension

Overall: The platform works well for me, although is quite simple one… maybe this is just what I needed… must share the main reason why I decided to open an account here: the deposit bonus, and I’m not to admit it… it’s a great offer, a great boost

Pros: Conditions for trading are solid, the spreads and leverage, and you get mt4 which is a standard solid platform for any typa trading

Cons: Not much features in terms of analytics provided here and education, could be better

Overall: Used the demo account for a while and got used to conditions and spreads, and moved on to the real account and the spreads are the same, appreciate the honesty

Pros: I was using high leverage for a long period of time during all my trading journey but couldn’t understand why every time I was losing my money. Then I read their article “How Excessive Leverage Can Lead to Significant Losses in Forex?” in the blog section, and ya know what?! It literally blew my mind, the way they explained all the nuances of using high leverage changed my mind by 180 degrees. Now I started trading with more tight risk management and I don’t lose profits anymore.

Cons: Yeah, their blog section is good but it seems they could improve something in their educational content. For example, they can add video lessons or start holding online webinars every week. I’m pretty sure it will add points to their reputation.

Overall: Regarding my experience, I can say everything is pretty good here. I’m focused on trading in the stock market. Luckily, Fxcess offers a wide range of shares for trading.

Pros: Solid design of the platform with nice UX and good spreads on most pairs, majors and others, impressive

Cons: MT4 was a bit hard to set up and use for me the first time, not beginner friendly

Overall: Used this broker on demo and then switched to real and I am liking my experience so far, don't have any complaints besides this platform

Pros: The software is stable, the layout is clean, and the trading tools are fast and easy to access. I like how quickly it loads up even during market volatility. The platform features are organized and responsive.

Cons: Some features take a few extra clicks to reach. It could be more customizable for watchlists.

Overall: Using Fxcess daily has been smooth. The tools, layout, and speed make it stable. A strong choice for consistent use.

Pros: The order execution is ultra-fast and I didn’t notice any slippage. I’m trading on the ecn account and I like how tight spreads they offer on this account. I hardly notice the difference between bid and ask prices.

Cons: Nevertheless, I think paying $4,5 per lot round-turn is too much. I hope they’ll reduce the size of commissions for trades.

Overall: I’m glad that they offer a standard the MetaTrader 4 trading platform. Everything works pretty well and without glitches despite the fact that the terminal may seem outdated already.

Pros: Low entry requirements, and on top of that, a great deposit bonus offer is included. Great for traders who want to start small

Cons: Only the MetaTrader 4 trading app is available for trading

Overall: I deposited $100, but one can open an account with even a lower deposit. Used 100% bonus, and my goal is to scale my account to $1000. After a month, it’s going fine and it's been a great XP so far

Pros: They offer only two trading accounts but this is exactly what everyone needs. Both are perfect, anyway, I opened a classic account. It doesn’t charge commissions for trading, spreads are fair enough, not wide and not tight. I’ve been trading on the forex for over 8 months now and so far so good. Not gonna lie, their lavish bonuses helped me a lot when I was at the beginning of my trading career.

Cons: Fxcess is a BIG broker and I can’t understand why they can’t afford to offer the MetaTrader 5 plugin. I mean it’s a shame for them. They should create their proprietary trading platform or add the MT5, if they don’t want to lose their authority in the industry.

Overall: Yeah, I'm not going to lie. I was disappointed by the lack of MetaTrader 5. Nonetheless, their bonuses are among the most generous I’ve ever seen in brokerage firms. Thanks to this, my trading start was successful.

Pros: In terms of trading, it has more than everything. MT is hardcore. I couldnt find some order types., but they can be downloaded with addons, externally, for free, all of them.

Cons: Ease of use is not there. First of all, Fxcess doesn't teach you anything about the software. You're relying on your own knowledge/youtube/guides/documents inside MT.

Overall: Using software for almost a year, it definitely lives up to its name as the most hardcore retail trading imaginable. You will be learning more than you expected, thats for sure. I would say the quality is there, I just wish it was explained more clearly at the very beginning.

Pros: As for likes, I got a positive attitude towards the platform. Comfortable, working without disrupts.

Cons: Some choices in platforms would be not odd, I think.

Overall: In general, this place was suitable for my occasional trading. Not forcing, neat and simple. I like it.

Pros: The software's user interface is clean, easy to navigate, and functional. Payment processes are seamless, and customer support is quick and reliable.

Cons: Limited features for advanced traders, this plays a major role in attracting traders of all experience tiers.

Overall: I’ve been using Fxcess for a while now on a free trial. While the design is top-notch, the features available are a bit basic for
experienced traders. It’s a solid tool, but it may not be ideal for those who need more advanced capabilities.

Pros: The software is user-friendly and Easy-to-use, has smooth performance and great analytical tools.

Cons: Pricing could be more competitive, and some features feel a bit outdated.

Overall: An innovative software choice with good functionality, but it could use some modern upgrades.

Pros: Very well thought system of bonuses, balanced and made right for trading with ease
MT4 as the platform, I personally prefer it over the newest versions and competitors just because its familiar to me
Suprisinly a lot assets to trade, including futures!

Cons: One thing that needs to improve is the blog, more consistency and better quality of articles in general
Funding methods are not bad - but they are too few, need to add some more

Overall: Trading is my second job, I can tell like this, because it has been more than a hobby for me. It brings me some profit and I like doing it, but I like my job either, so I am combining these two.
If you ask me why fxcess, i cant say you exactly like one thing, rather a whole combination of how they do it.
