I don't why the spreads of XAUEUR has widened recently. the spreads of indices, it is much higher. I don't like it. How can I continue to trade if it is so high?

Although EC Markets launched forex derivatives business in 2012, they still have expanded their business in China, mainly the mainland, in recent years. I have done EA tradings for many years and I have traded with many famous borkers. Sometimes, liquidity of those brokers, which is mostly important to EA trading, will decline. But I traded well with EC Markets and I have earned ten thousand bucks now on 26th May. If you are a EA trader, I recommend EC!

very fast deposit. My positions once were very closed to forced liquidation. I funded and the money was into my account instantly, reducing my losses. The customer service is also very quick and friendly. The staff are very enthusiastic, patient and professional.

I have been trading with EC since October,2019. Compared to other brokers I traded with before, its deposit is faster. and the spreads is tight. No slippage. The trading platform is very stable. Most important, withdrawals are also speedy. Generally, it takes 3 business days for my profits into my bank account. This is very convenient and makes me feel safe. In additon, their swap fees are also good than other brokers. Highly Recommed!!

The registration is very formal. Each person can open up to five accounts and it is easy to register with IB. I am very satisfied with the speed of deposit and withdrawal. It is very fast. So is the transaction speed.

At the beginning, I am interested in EC because its spreads is floating from 0.0 pips, plus, it is regulated by FCA. So I chose it and started trading with small amount of deposit.I have found the customer service very friendly. EC has a good reputation. I feel it is more trustworthy.

I appreciate that EC Markets provides access to a broad mix of global markets instead of limiting you to just forex. This makes it easier to switch strategies depending on current market trends. Some days I mainly trade currencies, while other days I look at oil, indices, or even crypto pairs, and the transition feels seamless.

One thing I’ve noticed is that EC Markets seems to offer pretty stable performance even during high volatility. Price feeds update quickly, and orders don’t lag the way they sometimes do on cheaper or poorly designed platforms. This type of reliability matters a lot when trading fast-moving markets like gold or crypto.

I can say that the platform feels optimized for both new and more advanced traders. For example, it supports automated trading strategies, which I find useful when testing EAs on VPS setups. At the same time, the interface isn’t cluttered, so beginners won’t feel lost. It strikes a good balance between usability and functionality.

The withdrawal process has been decent so far. Transfers weren’t instant, but they were completed within a reasonable time frame. I appreciate that EC Markets emphasizes a high withdrawal completion rate since that’s usually where many platforms fail. So far, I haven’t come across issues that would make me worry about access to my funds.

I like how EC Markets claims to keep client funds in segregated accounts. Even though you should always be cautious with any broker, having that kind of policy in place at least shows a commitment to fund safety on paper. It’s something that adds an extra layer of comfort, especially for people who trade regularly.

EC Markets’ withdrawals have been reliable for me. The processing times aren’t instant, but they are consistent, and funds usually arrive well within the expected period. Consistency matters more to me than speed alone.

I’ve been trading with EC Markets for a while now, and what keeps me using the platform is the overall consistency. The spreads stay stable most of the time, even during busier market periods, and the order execution feels smoother than many brokers I used before.

EC Markets has a great mix of trading instruments. I personally trade mostly forex and gold, but it’s nice knowing there are plenty of indices and commodities if I want to branch out. Everything is accessible under the same account, which makes life easier.

I’ve tested both MT4 and MT5 on this broker, and the performance has been stable on both. I rarely experienced platform freezes or connection drops, even when using multiple charts and indicators at once.

What stood out to me about EC Markets is their transparency. They clearly list out their trading conditions, margin rules, and fees without burying them in complicated documents. It made it easier for me to evaluate whether the broker fit my trading style.
