Forex Day Trading Broker Advantages

Our forex broker does not charge any commissions but makes money from the spreads between the bid and ask price. Since they are also a German bank, this broker offers account protection of 90% of account value up to 20,000 euros per creditor; something that's not available in the United States for forex. The executions are also automatic, so there's no intervention from a dealing desk. MT4 is the trading platform we use. MT4 has a become a bit of a standard in the retail forex trading industry and very popular for algorithmic traders who run automated day trading systems.
