Enriched Education Section: FXNet has an enriched education section designed to help traders of any level. They provide educational resources and video tutorials on both Technical Analysis and Fundamental Analysis.

What We Disliked:

Do not have much variety in Account Types: FXNet offers only two major types of trading accounts. This can be considered as a prime limitation of this broker. Traders might find a hard time to choose account types as they do not have many options.

The Bottom Line:

I would recommend FXNet as it is a true STP broker with reliable execution and fractional pip value. Their leverage and minimum deposit requirement are trader friendly. However, they should seriously introduce more trading accounts of different types. Trading contest is a key feature of this broker that many other brokers do not have.

Another broker who claims to be a true STP broker? Well they really are STP broker. Their execution and their service is amazing. Their spreads not the best but are fixed even when the news comes out

One of the best broker I have traded with for the last 3 years. They are new but they are also true to their words. Very honest and nice trading conditions

Portion of actual user comment on Fxpips.com

I have some good satisfactory experience with this broker. They have a massive 100% deposit bonus which is the most attractive offer, though they have some high spreads charges comparatively from other brokers of the market, but their execution is really fast and that surely makes the difference. They once held a contest but i think contest in a regular basis will attract the other traders to try out their offers and understand their features too.
