MT4 and MT3 Broker

A new Forex broker with quite a long on-line history and good stand (since 2004) was added to the Forex brokers section of a site. FIBOGroup allows CFD and Forex trading via both Metatrader 4 and Metatrader 3 trading platforms. The minimum deposit is $300 and the leverage at which account are set up is 1:200. At FIBOGroup accounts are easily opened on-line, but they don't allow e-gold deposits (closed this option due to the problems with e-gold) - but they may reopen this option in future.

Swissnetbroker – Double Platform Broker

An interesting broker with both Metatrader 4 platform for standard and mini accounts and Currenex advanced trading platform for ECN Forex trading – Swissnetbroker is a Switzerland based Forex brokerage company aiming at both retail and institutional trading services markets. Retail traders will like their MT4 platform and pretty low minimum of $200 with scalping trading style allowed, while big traders will get all the advantages of Currenex ECN platform with 0 pips spread. As for the disadvantages of this broker – only wire transfer deposit/withdraw option and quite a long account registration process.

Metatrader Expert Advisros - User's Tutorial

Using Metatrader expert advisors is simple, but sometimes people get confused with it and after downloading a file with the expert advisor a user might get stuck with it without knowing what to do next. This a simple tutorial on how to attach an expert advisor to Metatrader 4 char and activate it.

1. Download your MT4 expert advisor or copy it and save it to your Metatrader's 'experts' folder:


2. Double click it with your mouse and it will be opened in MQL editor (this editor comes with MT4). There will be a button 'Compile' at the center top of the window. Click it and your expert advisor will be compiled and ready to use. There might be some errors or warnings during the compilation, but in most cases there shouldn't be any. You can try and fix those errors, but it takes time and some programming skills, usually.


3. Now, all you need to do is add your expert advisor to the preferred chart and activate it. You can also change some input parameters for the advisor in the Inputs tab:

That's it! Now you can enjoy your expert advisor - its signals or its trading (if it is designed to perform trading). Good luck with them!

Socially Responsible Forex Broker - MIG Investments

MIG Investments is a Forex broker from Switzerland. It is one of the most legally clear broker for the serious traders. I say serious because the minimum account size is $2,000 with the Wire Transfer being the only billing option available. With MIG Investment you can use Metatrader 4 software and trade with their quite competitive spreads. One of the most remarkable thing about this Forex broker is that it shares some of its profits with the UNICEF organization, helping children all over the world. This is indeed a rare occasion that the rich help the poor in such aggressive and speculative industry as Forex trading.

Real Trade – Forex Broker from Latvia

Real Trade is an established Forex broker based in Latvia which offers international Forex trading services using a Metatrader Forex platform. Aside from that Real Trade clients can deposit and withdraw funds to and from their margin accounts using e-gold and WebMoney (along with a good old Wire Transfer). Overall, Real Trade is a reputable (but more popular with Russian-speaking traders) Forex broker with market presence since 2003.

FXcast - e-gold Forex Broker with Metatrader 4 Platform

Another e-gold Forex broker with a low minimum account ($1) and e-gold deposit option added to Forex brokers list. FXcast - a quite new broker in the on-line market. It also supports Metatrader platform (for accounts starting from $100) and a very high margin leverage (up to 1:400). One of the major drawdowns for this broker is that it is completely unregulated. But still - good choice for the new Forex traders who store their funds in e-gold or WebMoney.

Additon to MT4 Expert Advisors

I've added a new expert advisor to MT4 Expert Advisors section of the site - myfxovereasy Expert Advisor + FXOverEasy Indicators. It's my own EA based on FXOverEasy indicators, or more exactly - on their combo by Shimodax from StrategyBuilder forum. Actually this Forex expert advisor trades against FXOverEasy strategy, but it showed very good results on EUR/USD M15 chart. But be careful, it is quite risky, don't trade the money you cannot afford to lose. Don't forget to leave your comment if you use this indicator ;-)

LiteForex - a Really Good Forex Broker

EarnForex broker list was updated with a new Forex broker - LiteForex. This broker offers 3 very important opportunities for the new Forex traders:

1. Metatrader 4 Forex platform - many has it, but it is really almost a must for a Forex broker.
2. e-gold - as a funds deposit/waithdraw method.
3. Only 1$ to open a mini Forex account - a really easy start for a Forex newbie, isn't it?

As to the disadvantages - LiteForex lacks phone support and is only regulated on British Virgin Islands (which is not very serious for solid financial institutions).
