ANSWER Yes, FXCM does allow scalping. FXCM welcomes scalping strategies because of its No Dealing Desk (NDD) forex execution. You can open and close trades in any amount of time, even if you want to close the trade seconds after opening it.For more details, you can contact their customer support team.

I lost my money and now when I try to login they said abnormal account. The Support Team is slow, usually unresponsive.

If someone asks me what is the best trading platform in the world my answer would be FXCM's standard and micro platforms!

You're nuts. The more you know about a broker the better it is. Then you won't lose any money. The FXCM review taught me a lot.

I love FXCM. I invested about $5,000 and now I have about $50,000. My friends say to quit while I’m ahead but that was so much fun I don’t think I can. OMG, I could make so much more money. Can you imagine if I did that with 1:500 or 1:1000 leverage???

I have not faced any trouble with FXCM , their support is very good and reliable. Most traders care about the withdrawal, which I found they are very fast with. However, they have small problems which are the entry set and the slippage, when I set stop SELL or BUY some time it does not take it from the entry that I want. Also , they have slippage problem, I was trading with other broker and I noticed my SL hit on FXCM and it did not on the other broker.

I use the FXCM trading station 2, it performs well at first everything in place, then came the slippage, I place a stop loss of 20 pips but because of what they call "Slippage" they made me lose 40+ pips tell me what's the use of a stop loss if the system can't follow your setting and can overide it? now is that safe trading?Here's another I placed my sell order on AUD/USD 1.02302 the currency dropped to 1.01739 I was suppose to earn 30 pips on this, since my net limit is set to 30 but because of the "slippage" they entered my sell order on 1.01918 I almost lost the trade luckily I took it off the time it reached 5 pips, now as a trader do you want to use this as your broker?

Do not use their Mt4 platform for live trading. It is unstable.

I have been trading with FXCM for nearly 6 months and think they are an excellent broker. Their offer tight spreads and fast execution. I have been impressed by the quality of service I have received so far.
