Hi,

Dukascopy luanch MT4 platform as test only but i see in their platform compare table that PlaceBid/Place Offers order is not acceptable with their MT4 platform.If their MT4 is STP/ECN or not?Also one_click Mode is not available with MT4.

Would you please advise about these matters.

also, dukascopy offers a bank guarantee at 100k which is superior to most brokers out there. that means if they go under or away, your money is with a swiss bank in this case, not the broker i believe I heard normal mt4 accounts will be available in 3 weeks (hopefully they actually make the deadline) and minimum is either 5 or 10k. I'm thinking it is 10k

Hi BG

There's some update for Dukascopy, now traders can use mini lots from 0.001 equal to 1000 units of a primary currency amount.

Thank You!

1,000 is 0.01 so that would make a micro lot not mini i think, mini is 10,000 so it would be seen s
as 0.10 ( micro accounts ) or 0.1 ( mini accounts ).But anyway if it's true it's a good news that they accept now mini account on Dukascopy but for now i'll give a chance to broco investor as i'm sick of DD brokers bullshit :)

Hi Olumide,
When a trading position, which runs without a stop loss, closes automatically, it means that your equity is dropped below the required margin and you have received a Margin call - in simple words, it is a liquidation of your trading position in order to prevent your account equity from dropping below $0 USD.

Isn't Fair Trading Technology only a technical provider for Dukascopy's MT4 solutions? I mean they are not a broker...

Ya....you are right...just say FTT works like broker......Ducascopy and FTT charge $50 for every $1.000.000 trade.....

I found that Fair Trading Technology (http://www.fairtradingtech.com/)
provides an opportunity to open MT4 ECN account with Dukascopy..
I got confused, because as far as I remember Dukascopy said that due to many difficulties with MT4, they will not offer this type of platform to their clients.

So has it changed now?

I sent email to the broker and here is the reply:

"Good morning dear Thomas.
I confirm we still do not work with MT4.
FTT is providing a link to enable this.
We are not responsible for this development.
This a way for you to trade with MT4 in Dukascopy.
You have a price added to this service.
Best regards.
