I don't know how I managed to contact fxdd. I read reviews about fxdd on the Internet about delays in execution, traders complain. This also affected me. Yes, and my friends complained about them. Left 300 bucks here!

My review of FXDD is negative! This company is a scam! There is a fraudulent scheme in the terminal settings: If by the end of the trading day the margin level is less than 400%, then at 00:00 the Spread is expanded by 10 times, and the leverage is reduced by 2 times! As a result, all transactions are canceled and, on the morning of the next day, the account is reset to zero and you lose your Depot!

Traded at FXDD. What can I say - the kitchen, the kitchen ... at first I was satisfied, the quotes showed normal, I read a bunch of negative reviews, but still I didn’t believe until the last, until I checked it. Quotes are drawn here and transactions are not brought to the market. I realized this too late, of course. It's a pity...

You can work in FXDD with a deposit of 1 USD, but I advise novice traders to look for another broker: on a standard account, spreads start from 1.9 pips, and the maximum leverage is only 1:30. I work for ECN, the conditions here are quite acceptable and suit me. You can work on a web platform from the company's developers, but it is traditionally inferior to the classic MT4 and MT5. Perhaps someone will disagree, but I didn’t really understand it, but I immediately started on the familiar terminal. Moreover, the stationary version provides additional benefits: on weekends, you can test strategies offline. Withdrawal of funds from the second month is paid, and the commission is also high. This is the main disadvantage of FXDD.

I have traded with FXDD for about six months. Initially, I was attracted because the brokerage company did not set a high entry threshold. You can start with just $1. The terminal is the familiar MT4, and if any bugs occur, the broker allows you to give an order by phone or email. This is quite convenient. But there are also many disadvantages. Take, for example, the lack of operational support, which significantly complicates your interaction with the platform. Also, there are high spreads (for the Eurodollar, for example, it is from 1.9 pips). I traded here until I found a broker with more convenient conditions.

I believe FXDD is suitable for retail traders and investors. I joined this site in 2015 on the recommendation of a friend and I continue to trade here. This broker does not boast of low commissions, but I would say that the commissions are mid-market among its competitors. However, there are many other positives. First, there are opportunities for both active trading and passive investing, and second, the broker's support staff are really first-class. You can always count on their help and support.

I am aware that people are complaining about high spreads. This is true, but only for the standard account. In ECN, the commissions are loyal and there is a floating spread from 0.4 pips. For a completely different reason, I refused to cooperate with FXDD. The company is absolutely not focused on small traders, as far as I understand. I had to look for an alternative.
