Probably they market internally clients positions and ship outsied into LP the internet exposureQuote:

No I meant about Cease out levels, you stated its zero but in the description of the premium account it is 20%.Quote:

But to be a market maker Isn't a fault and if the MM is fair can profitable
Oh yes sorry just got ya wrong. But isn't it better for scalping EA's which need very tight SLs?Quote:

However, the fact u use an account with 0 pips prevent level isn't a guarantee u will be successfull because there are lots of different factors involved, but this is another matterQuote:

Still in good conditions Hotforex, just one repair the previous nfp period of news, (europe server regulation down 3 minutes), (fsc regulation old standart acounts all normal at the nfp time without issues).
Good trades.
Also my experience with them is quite positive up to now
This is bad Brokers for Indices. If you are interested in finding good ECN brokers, just stay from the broker. I have just attempted, and confronting problem straight away. They deny any my orders. I am unable to even get break even, the worst broker.
Hotforex for scalping is for sure not the best option: a lot of off quotes messages. But I am manging to be more profitable also there, but not like on other brokersQuote:

For quick scalping HF isn't excellent. The issue isn't slippage, but continue off quotes and more, once u have earned any money, a totally different behaviour of the data feed. If ur scalping isn't too quickly like mine likely Hf can be still okay. I suggest u to watch carefully the trades once u have attained some good gain, comparing the Exact Same egy how act on different brokers, and Will Likely see, on rapid inventories, something u Won't enjoy
Diversifiion is the very best we could do. Make moderate gains with various brokers and keep low profile - the most secure egy to utilize retail brokers.Quote:

Anyone know why this sort of things happen, Are they manipulate my price feed or is there other motive,
this type of things happened to me earlier times but I don't know the true reason.
If there were stop lose on 1.46000 I am pretty sure it would hit

Now I had trade opened exactly the same pair and that I didnt see anything weird. Really I never saw broad spreads in open time. Only they broad it when market close and less compared to brokers. My final broker was Allpari UK and they touch disperse more time compared to HotForex https://www.forexforum.co.za/attachments/1526191186.pngQuote:

The traders (we) make mistake after mistake, after humans always tend to blame everything that surrounds it, but can't see that the fault starts in himself, as always proceeds to make mistakes, and so the blame what they see around you.
We must get through this bad state of mind.
Learn from the mistakes (along with your errros).
About this broker I will say that before the date is severe, don't possess the best spreads, we can't have everything.
Good trades to all.
I had a sense several times that market is one big smart brain that knows ahead my aims and cheat me. If you place your orders on some popular key amounts or round numbers (or they're attached to a particular fundamental event or technical pattern) smart traders can easily activate them and push you into the losses. Same employed to SL's. That's why try to think and commerce less the crowd does.Quote:

So in my opinion the service is not positively correlated with the Broker's client development.
Went the length to test NFP this week using Hotforex - Really staggered with execution quality this time. The size was 1 lot and I just jumped at the heat during first seconds then played bouncebacks. This first bearish candle EUR/USD was crazed jumped sell in the midst managed to ch some great $$. Hope there'll be more such news turmoil cuz IMO it was easy to ch apt moments for entrance, particularly on pullbacks.
This is the screenshot of my trades

Where do I check hotforex daily or weekly trading volume guys? I visit other member can monitor trading volume of most brokers.
Good question. Remember I saw on HF website a plugin which shows bulls VS stakes on these instruments like EUR/USD, Oil, GBP/USD etc.. Though I can not say its true or not. But regarding some in-platform solution doubt it is possible to find it as forex instruments are not exchange-traded so now accurate volume are available for them. .Quote:

Hey what type of trading account are you using with them?Quote:

Hey guys I wonder if there are any instant withdrawal choices? What about HF debit card tried it? Any ATM fees?Quote:

There was a time when they provided the payoneer alternative but they don't have it anymore. But in the end the skrill procedure is pretty convenient, I mean I draw to skrill in roughly 24 hours and may withdraw in my local currency from any ATM using the skrill card.
I personally utilizing skrill and I guess it is fairly popular ewallet to produce simple deposits and withdrawals to a broker.
Compared to other brokers GBPUSD seems have large spread on HF http://www.myfxbook.com/forex-broker-spreads anyone know what is the reason behind that ?
And I have another question, is the hot HF is a ECN broker market maker ?
The gbp problem is the sell swap. Same with buy swap in Eur. Too LargeQuote:
