FTAG Capital Markets User Reviews

Highly trusted

I appreciated and enjoyed the high rebate I was receiving before it was discontinued for Australian-based accounts. However, I consistently found their slippage frustrating—especially during major news events. Their servers often seemed overloaded, particularly during the early hours of the New York session when it overlaps with the final hours of the London session. This frequently led to noticeable slippage and occasional freezes in the chart or trading terminal. Even though my VPS was located in the same data center as their servers in New York, with a latency of just 2–3ms, the slippage was still unacceptable—especially from a broker as prominent as IC Markets. During events like NFP or other high-impact releases, I would actively stop any EA and avoid trading on my accounts with them, as their performance tended to be worse than that of much smaller brokers. The spreads are reasonable on Raw MT5 accounts during most of the day and widen a bit during rollover, and I can’t speak to how competitive the conditions are on their Standard or cTrader accounts. The free Forex VPS with volume trades is an advantage and they have a good variety of deposit and withdrawal methods. Bottom line, I think they are okay but without rebates I can find a better value proposition
