Hi all,what i can say is i'm satisfied with all services provided with figfx.deposit/withdraw process quite fast if you do within office hour.the rule maybe strict but all for traders goodness.keep up the good services

These boys are playing loose with there rules/policy, changing them without notice, save posting on their own web site and using the no notice required line.

I pulled my money out after an issue that I thought could work around but found others are being affected by their lame policy change. My sin was too many canceled trades when on average I had only 3 per day.

They have numerous requotes on their live station and many are finding it difficult to close trades with a profit. I attempted 20 yes count them 20 times to close a trade at a time when the market was not even hectic!

When they did notify traders of the change they then complained about the backlash of their changes!

Dear 100ForexBrokers Readers,
Dear Visitors,

Please allow me to introduce myself as Javier Keeth, many know me from the live chat platform and many even have called me personally to discuss several matters. I am here to clarify a few matters after i got written permission to post in this thread from this website's owner(s).

-- First things first:
Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts. Please consider all information posted here by me as for educational and/or informational purposes only. FIG Solutions is not to claim any liability for my own personal experience as an employee of the company.

-- FIG Solutions | Quick Overview:
While FIG Solutions was opened for the public only in June 2009, FIG has been operating privately as a closed hedge-fund since 2007 and only after extensive research of the current market, it was decided to offer the services using the award-winning MT4 platform. Yes, FIG is a new company in the field; Yet, over 30 years of accumulated experience amongst it's team assures leading and innovative solutions for retail traders.

FIG Solutions Limited Inc. is registered in the State of Delaware USA (Company Reg. #4710069) and operated by FIG Solutions Ltd. - Nicosia, Cyprus (Company Reg. #HE-250941). FIG is an accredited merchant performing online financial transactions mainly using Moneybookers, a FSA regulated service in the UK with license to transact and hold third party funds. As for FIG regulation itself, it has been filed in more than one jurisdiction and procedures to get proper business conduct licenses are going on. For interested people, we would like to mention that most licenses require a minimum of 6 months and can take as long as one year, depending on the level of license required. Please stay tuned for more news about this issue on our main website available at www.figfx.com

-- Trading Platform | Account Types | Platform
FIG Solutions utilizes the award-winning MT4 platform made by MetaQuotes Software Corp., our servers are distributed over 3 datacenters in the US with cloud-based mirrors in multiple locations. Backup servers are also in place to ensure redundancy of your personal and trading data at all times. FIG Solutions offers micro forex trading accounts for as little as $25, mini accounts for as little as $250, standard accounts for deposits of $2,500 or more and institutional/segregated accounts for $250,000 or more.

For micro and mini accounts, traders can enjoy a high leverage of up-to 500:1 while standard accounts maximum leverage is 200:1. Institutional accounts are bound to a 100:1 leverage. Of course, FIG Solutions also offers Islamic "swap-free" accounts for interested individuals. FIG spreads are fixed at all times, and are as little as 1 pip for all major currencies.

For trader's convenience and ease of account operation, a secured GUI platform has been introduced where traders can manage all aspects of their trading account. Edit data, change leverage, monitor trades, deposit & withdraw funds and of course, check affiliate commission reports for IB/Agent accounts.

-- Scalping | Expert Advisers
Scalping, is defined differently by each individual trader and can have a different look and feel in each particular case. FIG Solutions allows scalping at all accounts regardless of the account type, manually or using an expert adviser. The corporate dealing policy of FIG Solutions states that all trading strategies are accepted including "not limited to" scalping. A few exceptions exist such as hedging a spot to its own future, arbitrage, and self-rebate. Where a trader opens an IB and a trading account to generate commissions for himself. For more information about your trading strategy please contact our customer support.

One more thing that is worth mentioning, is the misunderstanding of some "stupid" commercial EA's that are distributed online and promise to make 500% or even more daily. We would strongly recommend traders to use the simple common sense before buying such expert advisers.

Yes, FIG Solutions allows scalping, again. But when your EA sends 3,000 orders per minute; You can not blame us (or any other broker) for the "Trade context busy" error in such case, or even the instant blocking of your account. This, is not scalping anymore, it looks more like a server-flood. Dear traders, there is NO EA EVER, that will make you a 1000% no matter how fast or how tricky your orders are placed. If they exist, the author won't ever sell you a copy even for half a million dollars.. And why should he :)

-- Deposits | Withdrawals | Account Verification
FIG is obligated ethically and legally to comply with financial KYC procedures. We require that all traders identify themselves properly to our backoffice & filing department before conducting business with FIG Solutions. Only because we understand that "time is money", an allowance period is granted for new traders. You can open the account, fund the account and even enter initial trades before uploading your documents. Yet, please do NOT expect a withdrawal to be processed before we get full identification information as requested on our website.

Deposits and Withdrawals are processed daily on a strict schedule. Our backofice starts operating at 09:00 CET and finishes at 17:30 CET (except Saturdays & Sundays). In normal operation regeime, any deposit/withdrawal is processed within just a few minutes. At other cases when promos and bonuses are overloading the work schedule, a delay of 3-4 hours might be encountered. It will really sound stupid to run to some review site and start shouting, SCAM SCAM :D

Third-party deposits and withdrawals are strictly prohibited. Under no circumstances FIG Solutions is to accept any request for deposit and/or deposit from anyone unless the funding party is identified as the exact account holder. Money laundering takes lots of forms and has a scary legal penatly, FIG Solutions is not willing to take any chances or risks in regards to such legal issues. The minimal doubt in your source/destination of funds will be enough to block your account, and forward your papers to the authorities. (Yes, we did it before)

-- Requotes | Requotes | Requotes (vs. DEMO accounts)
Technically, a requote is the default MT4 server answer when the requested price is way too far from the real price being fed to the server from the linked price stream. Price streams can be Tenfore, Currenex, DDE grabbers and even FIX protocol at some cases.

In most cases, people that complain about requotes do not have any idea what a requote is, and what might be the real cause. In their point of view the broker is always the one to blame. Yes, FIG Solutions platform does generate requotes in seldom cases, and believe me almost all platforms do have requotes, for a reason or another.

The difference between a real account and a demo account relies simply in the "logic processor" of incoming orders. This is why authors of the "stupid" EA's mentioned above will always show you stats of a demo account, and never for a real account. In a nutshell, any incoming order to a demo account will be simply answered "OK", while in real accounts the price will have to be passed over the price streaming bridge to the real liquidity provider, get a quote from there, compare trader's price with the one from the bridge, then execute the deal. The differnce between these two prices is called the slippage, which is again something everybody asks about, and rarely understand.

Hint: Read a few lines about slippage, maximum deviation, STP vs. ECN

-- Google said: don't be Evil
One more problem that FIG Solutions is facing (i am sure many other brokers also) is the ignorance of common sense by some newbie traders. In 90% of all cases that our customer support team reports, the issue is all based on a misunderstanding of some term mentioned here or there.

A trader for instance, makes a withdrawal request on Friday at 19:00 and reports FIG Solutions as a scam company because the company never paid him until Tuesday 14:00.. Ok, this is a big delay of course - but did the client contact the customer support? Is their account fully verified? Do they have available funds at all on the account to cover the requested withdrawal? Did they send us the bank details to which we were supposed to perform a withdrawal?

One more case "Like Mr. Peterson mentioned below" is not finding a contact phone on our website. We've seen lots of claims that we scammed people and the prove was not having a phone number or an address :)

Dear Friends, Microsoft™ does not have a phone number.. does that make it a scam company?
As a company policy, customer support was initially managed by Kayako online support system (www.kayako.com) and was changed to LiveSupport™ live service by (LiveSupport.com). FIG Solutions never did, and probably never will provide support over the phone. If at the end installing an answer machine will solve the problem and end your doubts, we might install one to end the struggle.

As for the address in Delaware, we would kindly ask you to head to the company registrat of Delaware state and check on the company. You will amazingly notice that the address mentioned and enlisted on our website is the correct address of our company. For your information, almost 99% of all multinational companies and specially forex brokers use virtual office service to get offshore addresses just as the one we have on our website.

Hint: always try to solve the problem with your broker before shouting they scammed me.. your $5 won't ever make a broker rich :)

-- Thanks
I would finally like to thank the 100forexbrokers.com website owners for the allowed chance to post here publically.
Thank you guys, we appreciate your business.

This broker offers 1 pip fixed spread on the majors with MT4.

There demo looks nice, price is fluctuating with one pip showing 1.5001 and 1.5002 for EUR/USD, trading
at same level as other ECN/MT4 brokers such as ATC Broker and FXCBS. In fact FIGfx has a fixed spread of
only 1 pip, the other ECN brokers have constantly fluctuating spreads between 0.8 -1.3 pips, so why pay
them $8 in commission for one standar lot (Round Trip) when FIGfx gives you a nice fixed one pip spread
with transaction cost included in spread?

Is FIGfx offer to god to be true? I do not know so I was going to contact them, this is the contact
information they state on their website:

What kind of bullshit information is this? No phone number, no e-mail, no info about president, board,
owner, etc? I certainly makes me very suspicious. Anybody knows anything about them?

Is there anybody who has any good experience from any FIXED 1 pip broker (no commission, brokers profit
is in the spread)?
