Anyone experiencing it also? FXDD Live Freezed for the last 10 minutes...either that or "NO CONNECTION"

WTF...

Yes is true, and you saw the wide open spread? i saw 60 pips spread in gbp/usd and 40-50 pips in eur/usd.

I think it was intentional, why it happened after the NFP by 10 minutes ?

Yes...FXDD today joined the ranks of FXCM.

From 15:39 to 16:49, connection was active for 8 minutes total.

As stated in above post, spreads were unbelievably far apart.

Anyone who thinks it wasn`t intentional is living in a dream world.

Congratulations FXDD...you`ve done more damage to your reputation
in one day than anyone has since a broker did on a previous August.

You must not have read my post on interbankfx. Interbankfx and fxdd and many others are all the same and maybe even owned by the same people. They all get two stars by forexbastards.com . Yes, they do that intentionally. I was in denial , too but then I woke up and went to Oanda. I'm happy now.

i can definately recommend Interactive Brokers and button trader, the spread was not more than 2 or 3 pips all the way up!!!

I also heard FXDD and IBFX have the same dealing desk or owers, this may account for the correlation on feeds and down time. What do you or anyone know about this?

FXDD isn’t even Registered

Just reading http://forexbastards.com/Fxdd.shtml and WOW thay have 10 times as many complaints!

Rread 8th post down It’s true FXDD isn’t even NFA Registered, I just called to asked, the rep quickly became quite and ask me to hold on, came back to explain thay are not directly Registered but thay fall under their parent companies Registered I asked what dose this mean, if FXDD were to go down would we (account holders) be able to retrieve our funds? He replied certainly but could not explain the procedures

Now I’m no expert but this sounds very fishy, Is this some kind of loophole to avoid audits and registration fees is it legal is their any other FX firms using this same loophole, and how safe our funds with a un regulated fx firm? And last but not least, why didn’t FXDD disclose this to us?

Problems are here so that we can solve them.
Not satisfied with the quality of service of your broker?
Move to other.
There are plenty of good and working companies.

So, what are the good brokers...........a list of say at least seven, once and for all....................Oanda's good? and FXDD sucks? Interbank sucks? (I know their register. SBfx sucks? SMC I know is good but only allow 10pip profit miniums, I have a accout with them, but I need another broker cause they too few pairs. I seem to get mixed messages from people with interbank
they really have nice deals from what I read at their site, and I dont see
any complaints on gov. site; I was going to open up an account with FXDD
today!?!? I live in Northern California. So lets get clear.... Pedro you've
metioned FXDD? Who's got an account with someone made some money,
and was able to withdraw it , with no problems.....and who has had
an account with someone (and history) activtely for while and its been pleasent. They can't all be Bad otherwise ther wouldn't be so many Traders
and SNC would have all the customers.....lolololo..........Don't these people
theses Brokers know (realize)....that what they do good and BAD is going to be to be noticed and talked about ......like wild fire.........even rummers, and
one time bad experiences.......can make news.
cheers
