      I have followed the forums here and like them very much.

      I would like to ask :

      Which UK forex trading platform/company is a good one? I have searched the internet and found many forex trading platforms but do not know which one is more reliable.

      Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

      In my opinion is excellent. I discovered them about 6 months ago and now transfer smaller amounts to pay my Spanish bills as opposed to sufficient money to last 6~8 months.

      The transfer fee is 3 Euros as opposed to my bank which was charging £25 a pop.

      The exchange rate is the closest you will get to the bank rate as it’s a peer to peer exchange.

      At this instant bank rate is 1.2504 currencyfair will give you 1.2464

      Thank you “jp1”! The rate sounds great, I did not know that it could get so close! Well you seem to have saved me some money if some day I exchange the currecies. Thank you again!
      By the way, I just checked the site and it seems that one cannot trade CFDs there. Do you happen to know as well which UK company/platform is a good one for forex brokers? Thanks.

      LOL!!!

      I assumed you were looking for FX for Spanish Bills

      http://www.igindex.com is an excellent platform for currency speculation, they also offer trading CFD’s but I have only ever traded currencies and equities with them.

      Not sure what your really meant by…

      Many thanks! You answered my question very well even though I did not ask clearly. The truth is that I did not know what it meant myself as the information is for somebody else. As I was told by him: ” If they trade currencies, they know what site is a good one and they can pick out one”. Anyway now the information now is being passed to him and I am very grateful for your help. Thank you very much.

      http://www.xe.com

      I tried to figure out if it is available in the UK, but can’t tell from here, but we have used xe.com (a Canadian firm) for years, successfully transferring funds between the US, Germany and Spain. They have the best exchange rates we have found (spot rates are only in the trading section, not on the main page).

      They also offer currency trading, which we have never had the courage to use.

      Good luck!

      I know about some several forex trading brokers from the UK. But in my opinion, fxtm is the best broker. why best? I am telling why it is best for me.

      i am a small investor, so leverage is an important fact for me, fxtm giving 1:1000 leverage which is very important for me to increase my income.

      They have extremely low spreads which is also good for me. they have both fixed and variable spreads. There ecn spreads is 0.1 and standards account spreads 0.5 .

      They have no deposit commission. they also have super fast execution. there support team is also awesome. so i think they are best for the little investor like me.
