I guess this is not the most popular review, but whatever. I think IC Markets has great educational features. Forex Trading is a topic that is of interest to me and I have therefore studied many different topics from this research and my experience, I consider IC Markets as the best option for a beginner. Deposits are very easy with them, and trading executions is also very good. But I have yet to make a withdrawal so, there will be an update (hopefully).

I requested a withdrawal in January, and it is May. But I haven't heard anything from it. I wasn't gonna withdraw a lot of money it was only around $1000. I had contacted their customer service again but they keep telling me to wait. For how long? I don't know. It shouldn't be this long.

How to deposit using FBS app?

I plan to trade with XM by depositing $1500. Is XM trustworthy? 

How does FBS broker work?

What about AGEA's reputation as an International broker?

So, I am a new trader and I don't have that much experience when it comes to trading. I tried IC Markets because I heard they have the best spreads. Funny thing is, I have no idea how to open an account and how to start trading. I ask their customer service about it and they are surprisingly very helpful. They also inform me about the amazing webinars for traders that IC Markets held every once in a while. I learn a lot from their educational material. In the beginning I use their demo account and it was amazing as well as simple. But, thanks to the training I now start trading in raw accounts.

My first impression of IC Markets is started mediocre. I mean, it's good but not the best. Good spreads, quick order executions, all the standard stuff. Since I didn't have too many problems I decided to continue trading with them for a while. I'll try to write again after I found something else.

They are really good, I have been working with them for seven months. I think they have given me the best spreads possible. I think that's what you get if you are with an ECN broker? I don't know, but I'm happy with the price. I also love it because I can check on the market depth so I can make better decisions before placing an entry. Swap rates also like their spreads, small and unique.  They also provide with 200 lot one-click size trading, I think this is the best deal I can find from where I live.

The customer service is basically non-existent! I have been trying to get a hold of my money for a while and they just not even responding. I know that my money is probably worth nothing to them, but it's everything to me. I worked hard for that profit (albeit little). Even when an operator finally answered my chat, they just kept asking me the same questions and asking me to give the same data and documents, and then they will disappear. Why would you have customer service if it's not even functioning?
