If you have the money. Go for "managed forex account". It starts with $5000

I have not even heard of many of them. Only instaforex is popular, and yes you should avoid them.

thanks, any reference link on this?

The mentioned brokers are really crooks in my opinion. I wonder how instaforex has managed to survive this long. Although the broker is not totally bad. Some traders are actually using the broker.

Looks like this budget is big high as a starter @Whitelion.

Does your broker offer managed account?

Most of those brokers are crooks, and though some of them soud a bit familiar, I've heard quite a number of encounters with Instaforex. I can't really say that they should be avoided, since there are traders who use them and are making big profits. I think it all depends on your strategy and how well you adhere to your broker's terms and conditions. Traders should make informed decisions though

Instaforex is a horrible broker, stay far away from those scums.

I've been using Instaforex as a broker for quite some time and  have no issues with them as a broker.....I can easily withdraw my profits and funds...easy deposits too.

I have not interacted with most of those broker, but Instaforex is kind of popular for its scams, and I believe every new trader has heard of them, However, I cant rule out that they should be avoided completely, since there are traders who are comfortably using them and making profits. Its all in your strategy and how up your antenna is

Every trader should be careful when selecting a broker to deal with. Personally, I recommend that traders only sign up for accounts with regulated brokers who have no withdrawal issues. The best place to know the brokers to avoid or not is the broker review section of Forex Peace Army
