What is the best platform to trade real forex? I mean, considering most of the features, like if its trading software is good, if it's reliable, if the money transfer of deposit and withdrawen is fast, if it's convenient to do trading with it, if the support is fast and effective, and so on and so on.

Is there any good platform support Paypal or has european bank account?

How do you think of http://fxtrade.oanda.com/, is it good or not?

Thank you for informations. I'm planning to do real trade, but first only with a mini account.

I saw the better one, newer, but truly better. They are from Switzerland.

You can open one account and trade both virtual and real money. You even get 5$ reward for opening it.

I use both Oanda and Fxsolutions(VERY recent). Both accept deposits via Paypal. I like Oanda, mainly because I don't have to download software to use their services (Valuable to me on my work PC.)

Yep, definitely go with Oanda to learn the ropes of forex. Once you understand the in's and out's you can start using the advance indicators and overlays on the visual-trading platform and the metaquotes platform.

Oanda has all of that built-in too. Seriously, I've had a look at many platforms and Oanda is Teh Rox0rzZ!!!!111!!11oneone

Oanda also has the smallest spreads anywhere. It's easy to learn. You don't need to install it. It's powerful with all the graphs and indicators and everything else you would ever need. It's got a play-money area to learn with.

I love Oanda!

OK, the best feature Oanda has is that you do not need to download anything on your PC, however, they could do much more on interface: I believe that it is better to install few kB application from trusted source and enjoy trading.

As for 2-3 pips spread, I believe that this is not that important for us, more important is to guess the right direction.

Wow all the stuff you have to fill in on the application form put me off a bit, is it really worth declaring bank refs, passport when you get to the site?

Oanda has some of the basic overlays and indicators, but compared to other software is rather lacking, the Fibonnaci support is pretty lame too, which is why it's a good idea to use visual trading platform once you have learned the basics of forex through oanda.
