Bonuses and Promotions - Forex Broker Testimonials

The new trader here, so please understand if I ask any ridiculous questions. Recently I found in a forum that IC Market offers rebates for their clients and wanted to know what kind of benefits I can get with rebates. And how to know if I am eligible to receive it?

Aside from that, I'd like to know if IC Markets offers bonuses and promotions such as no deposit bonuses or something similar for their traders.

On a side note, I'm pretty glad about their educational form.

I am most comfortable learning from webinars and IC Market has one of the best webinar classes I have ever tried. So, for traders who just started venturing like me, this program is a must-try.

I can see why other traders recommend IC Markets as their trusty brokers. I've been trading with them too for a few months and I'm happy no major problem happens. New member here :) The complaint I have for them is they are lack promotions. I wish they have promotions at least twice a year.

At first, Admiral is really good. They promise a 100% bonus, which will serve to open positions and keep them open. For a while, they really keep their promise and trading was good. But, suddenly, out of nowhere, they decided to change the rules. Worse of all, they don't even bother to warn the client. So I am obviously annoyed and in the dark about this. The customer service seems to be overworked, and never clearly answers any question that is addressed to them, acting with total disrespect to their customers.

Admiral Market really impressed me with its wide range of trading assets. It really gives us the freedom to choose the appropriate one. Limited offering, bonuses, leverage, and competition in fact is a proof that Admiral is a professional broker. That is not all, there are great features that set Admiral Markets apart from the rest of the brokers. For example, they also give out market analysis that gives me a lot of trading ideas. To conclude, I am really satisfied with the work of this company and especially with the technical support.

I am tired of waiting. Until today IC Markets hasn't given me my IB commissions. They promise to give me some time ago, but they never did. I have tried to contact them through their social media and support team. They keep saying the same thing, that is to wait and that they will be transferring it soon. Eventually, they did a certain amount of money, but it's not everything. In fact, it's only 60% of it. And now they are not providing me with my remaining ib commission. It's a joke!

As someone who has been trading with FBS for more than two years, here are what I can conclude from this broker

Positive

- Good spreads

- Interesting trading contest, I guess they have this almost every year? There is a news year contest to try on.

- It has great copy trading apps, I have been using it for several months (5 months) and had no issues. Although the 100$ bonus has little hard conditions

- They gave no deposit bonus great for practice

Negative

- Order executions can sometimes be delayed due to high volatility. Not bad, but can be better.

- Slippage is pretty bad despite they claim to have low latency.

How do you calculate rebate for a micro and ultra low XM account? Why do I seem to get a small rebate all the time? What are the trading conditions to get XM rebate? How much should I trade?

I have been trading with them for about a year, but however, I am still undecided. Sure, they have great features that I actually like and benefit from. But at the same time, there is some stuff I don't like as well. For example, deposits were super smooth, but the withdrawal can be quite a hassle. Customer support was quick to answer, but sometimes their answer is pretty much nonsense. Although there are some officers who actually know about the issue and resolve it quickly. That being said, I still think that IC Market has the best spread in the market. They also have awesome webinar content. I'm not sure about the promo and contest, I don't think they have much of it. But that's probably because they are a member of ASIC.

Definitely be careful. I joined them because they promise me a 100% bonus, which will serve to open positions and keep them open. Now, at first, it does seem like they deliver such things. But, without warning, they decided to change the rules, and the bonus passed to no longer serve to maintain open positions. What's worse is that they don't even bother to warn traders beforehand. Also, applying stop-out and closing all client positions, causing recurring losses, and acting with total disregard for it. Not gonna come back.

So, I recently joined a trading contest from Exness. While I didn't win, I managed to get into the grand final which is a great achievement for me. I was stuffed with all sorts of goodies I was very happy. Since then I decided to try trading with Exness. So far they have been a real champ, they have tight spreads, no deposit bonuses every year, a minimum deposit of $1. I notice they also have regular trading contests with amazing prizes to be won, no deposit charges. I think I'll try again soon and see how far I can go this time.
