I’d like to share a genuine review of this broker, particularly regarding the severe slippage issue. I entered forex trading with high expectations, but this broker has been a major disappointment. I place my trades expecting to enter at a specific price, say 1.1000, only to find the execution slipping to 1.1004 or even 1.1010. This happens consistently, even during calm market conditions, not just during volatile news periods, and it’s drastically affecting my profits, often turning potential gains into break-even or losses. I’m quite frustrated because this level of slippage erodes my confidence in their platform. I expect a broker to execute trades accurately and promptly, but it feels like they’re mishandling my orders. For anyone considering this broker, I strongly recommend testing their execution thoroughly before committing significant funds. This slippage issue could turn your trading experience into a frustrating ordeal, so proceed with caution.

If it's truly regulated, why require a verification deposit? Every deposit demands identity verification. Even after providing all documents, they blame system settings—claiming it's to prevent credit issues after verification deposits, then cite other excuses... a bottomless pit. Now watching money get deducted in real-time 🤧😭

i had managed once again to close most of my trades in profit on my Mt4 terminal account, but i noticed the trades i closed in profit on my mt4 terminal were left open on the fxopen platform. contacted their support and explained the situation and provided evidence which clearly show the mt4 account was running, and all most these trades closed in profit, they claimed my stp account expired which is absolutely false.

I used it in the past. I used to run an EA on a rare Bitcoin-denominated ECN account. The spreads were average, slippage was significant, and it was a broker without any other outstanding features.

It is a little bit tricky. Depositing is free but withdrawing charges commission fees. This makes me feel that depositing is easier and withdrawing can be harder. What if I'm running at a loss and I want to withdraw my money? Then I have to pay more, which is awful...

Its trading platforms operate well. I usually use MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5, and recently I tried the other two platforms offered by FXOpen, which turns out to be good.

A liar company, saying that it is a safe and reliable foreign exchange company, is actually a scammer. If you foolishly invest here, you will never get back a cent of your money!

I like the fact that FXOpen offers both MT4 and MT5. However, safety is always my first consideration. Goodbye, FXOpen!

FXopen is a reliable broker that I have been using for years. Narrow spreads and stable MT4 trading platform are the main reason that i trade with this broker most. BTW, they also process your withdrawals patiently and quickly.

The company is registered in Cyprus and regulated by CYSEC. I noticed that its leverage is controlled at 1:30, which is a very sensible level. I know I shouldn't try too high a leverage, so FXOpen's leverage is not a disadvantage for me. I'm going to open a demo account and try it out!

I suggest that you should first open a demo account since its minimum deposit reaches $300, not suitable for beginners. I bet you will regret if you open a real one. Its demo account is filled with $1,000,000 virtual money for you to practice your trading strategies… This broker says it provides competitive spreads, however, this should be tested on demo accounts first. By the way, its trading platform is quite smooth and powerful, no latency… Lastly, professional traders can use the leverage up

FXOpen seems to offer everything i want. I can trade with MT4 or MT5 demo accounts and enjoy tight spreads although low commissions may be charged. But.. the minimum initial capital is too unfriendly for we beginners, $300? crazy?

Essentially it is not possible to withdraw anything from them. I feel it may well be arbitary towards me. I have offered settling the dispute by transferring my peak equity (approx. 6000 euro) since the blockage through a final SEPA transfer and then closing my account. But of course they really appear unable to process any withdrawals, other than offering me to move the money to moneybookers which would not then process the withdrawals to my bank account, but will charge fees.
