Multi Brokers Test #2

When the market began running on Monday morning yesterday, the new note that ECN broker accounts on ECNProFX using 0.1 lots as a minimum lot. Though capital can not be altered and restricted only 1000. As a result of this is that this account many times experienced loss due to capital is no longer sufficient to hold the floating loss that occurs.

It has been predicted before, let alone use 0.1 lot, use a smaller lot that is 0.01 lots with a capital of only 1000 can already lead to a margin call because this Blessing EA has a tendency to hold the floating loss is sufficiently large that adequate capital is necessary in order avoid a margin call.Another broker that capital can not be changed is FigFX where capital has been determined that its value should be 50 thousand and the smallest lot is 0.1 lots.

Another broker that uses the smallest lot is 0.1 lot FxPro. Only in FxPro, the capital value can be changed as the user desires and not from the beginning is determined by the broker as well as on ECN broker account FigFX and ECNProFX above.

Due to the differences in the value of lots and the capital value of the ratio by using a value of USD will be a little difficult when the amount of USD profit should be equated beforehand in order to obtain comparable results to the entire brokerage.For example, below is a summary of the acquisition on EA's Blessing this morning at various broker:

Brokers who use 0.1 lot would certainly tend to have the amount of USD profit or loss is higher than the brokers who use 0.01 lots. In order to obtain results similar comparisons with other brokers on the broker who then use the 0.1 lots, the amount of USD acquisition of profit should be divided by 10 in advance.

As for ECN accounts at brokerage ECNProFX comparisons will not be done due to capital constraints 1000 and due to this many times experienced loss. So the performance of EA's Blessing becomes chaotic and results can not be compared with another broker.


FxPro and FigFX in the image above acquisition profit amounted to 580 and 535. To be compared to the acquisition of profit is first divided by 10 to obtain the FxPro profit amounted to 58 and the profits amounted to 53.5 FigFX

By way of first divided by 10 then comparisons can be made even though there are differences in the use of the lots.

As for the acquisition of Total Pip does not need to be divided by 10 is because regardless of the value of lots that are used, the pip value will remain the same and will not be affected. Differences lot only affect the value of the acquisition of profit or loss in USD.

So based on the above calculation that the FxPro profit amounted to 58 and on FigFX is ranked first at 53.5 then the biggest profit gains in the USD from the picture above is VantageFX of 73.69, followed by ECN Pepperstone 61.82, and FxPro at 58 , 04.

While the first rank in the biggest profit gains Pip is VantageFX by 273, then followed by ECN Pepperstone FxPro 224.2 and then 213.9.

Only Pip acquisition value can not be compared directly with the acquisition of CAD. For example VantageFX 273 pip gain, when 1 pip = USD 1 certainly obtained the profit is USD 273. But the reality, the profit earned only U.S. $ 73.69.

This is because myfxbook do not pip calculation based on the value of lots. Eg 1 time entry with 5 lots and managed to profit 10 pips then by myfxbook acquisition will count 10 pip pip. But when done 5 times each entry with a lot and managed to profit 10 pips then be calculated by myfxbook 50 pips. As a result of this then becomes Pip value is not comparable with a value of USD.

We look together at the weekend how the overall result of these broker comparison.
