For the last 10 days I have been looking for a good MT4 broker, the results there isn’t any !!
Currently I am with IBFX , and I got screwed big time on their wide spread rates during the news, on my search for other MT4 brokers here is what I found.
News : Broker with fixed pips (always fixed pips ) don’t fill your order on the market price they freeze the trade for a while, while Broker with variable spread ( during the news ) they will fill the orders with 3 times more than the regular spread value example today IBFX went from 3 pips on USJAP to 9 pips
Swap: Broker with fixed pips (always fixed pips) screw the trader on the swap, as we have to pay much more if we decide to stay in a trade for more than one day, while you get almost nothing in return if the swap was in your favor, on the other hand Broker with variable spread ( during the news ) offer very reasonable swap rates.
I am very tired form looking for a decent broker, all I need is :
1-Fixed pips or variable pips (during the news) doesn't matter, but not 3 times more than the regular spread during the news
2-Decent balanced swap rate
3-I don’t scalp, but I should be able to enter the trade on the market price (fast filling)
4-Some of the brokers web sites doesn't work anymore, I guess they are out of business, so I don't want a second hand broker
5- the ability to trade 0.01 lots with 1:400 leverage
I don’t want sales talk, fellow traders if you had experience with a decent broker please let me know
IBFX - i am considering them for my live account, dont mean to trade news, so would u say that they are otherwise OK (money transfers, connection stability/failings, amount of requotes off the news time...)?

thnx in advance
So far the are the best of the worst, this weekend they are moving to bigger servers, so they are upgrading I hope service will be better .
Best things I found in IBFX is :
1- Leverage 1:400 on mini accounts
2-Micro lots 0.01
3-fast execution good during the news ( very wide spread bad )
4-Transfer funds very quickly
5- Fair spreads ratio
6-excellent customer support
The reasons I don't like IBFX is:
1-Sometimes their server freeze ( but not during the news mostly at the start of the week)
2-Wide spread during the news
I have checked most of the other brokers are they are even worse, so better the devil you know than the angel you don't know
I am checking alpari now, but I am waiting thier answers to some questions I have sent to them
just kidding.
we'd all like a broker who does everything our way. There's no perfect broker. The reason is that they too are one of the hungry animals in the forex food chain.
I trade the news from time to time, but have learned work around the widening spreads at IBFX. So far I am content with them for my live trading.
good luck,

I went with RFXT.com they have unbelievable level of support, I paid online with my visa card and within 5 min the money was in my account and the account was active, I am shocked.
If they kept this level of customer service, and match it with a good MT4 support, they will rule the brokerages world.
I just had my account active; I will update later on the trading experience.
