Marketiva.com Vs (OANDA)fxtrade.com

lets talk about differences between these two major currency brokers as one is leading and number one in the USA and the other one is going more ppuler in the rest of world.
the main differences i have seen are as following:

1- OANDA's pips spread is better than every US or world broker so for the short term trades OANDA is very best.

2- Marketiva is giving option of egold and other e-currencies but OANDA not..

3- OANDA is giving intrests on lots .Marketiva is not

4- Marketiva is a non US non NFA/FSA company OANDA is US based FSA/NFA member company.

5- OANDA gives full support on phone fax etc. Marketiva dont have phone fax numbers.

6- Another advantages of OANDA over marketiva is hedging capibility.

7- Trade from anywhere anytime on OANDA website but marketiva software needs to be installed on specific computer.

8- OANDA gives buitin charting facility on full screen with most indicators used in forex i think better than marketiva but both sites charts are sub standard.

tell us your experience guys what is your opinion about both websites?????

Hi moneymaker3, i dont think marketiva is a "marjor broker" yet, but there is a chance they become one in years time.

just a quick summary from my personal view, marketiva has been online for about 1.5 year, and 10 years for oanda. if you want to trade large ammount of money, then go for oanda because of the company's stability and reputability, otherwise you would need marketiva for higher leverage.

You forgot the one where Oanda is a registered company, and marketiva is only "semi registered" according to one of their commentators.

Hey my friend,

Welcome board, I think is better to prepare for the attack from the "great team of spammers" in internet...

LOL HEHE

Yes, that is true that you said here... And that is not all...


PS - I was commentador in M_rk_t_v_ but I never defend and said something about that broker in their chats (just said that I am never invested on it... LOL ), I was a neutral person and people here need to learn to be honest with innocent people...

registered or unregistered doesn't make difference ... but the thing marketiva is offering sometimes looks good instead of oanda.com or coesfx if you check the difference speciallywhen you check hedging and leverage....

i'll prefer marketiva personally compare to onande.

Personally, I wouldnt trade with either. They are both sell outs.

But Oanda is 1 step ahead, but 1 step behind.

Marketivas support is better than Oandas but the fact that claiming any funds made on marketiva would be deamed illegal, and you would be penalised. Must be registered company to make big money.

I have to pay taxes on my trading, coz the quantities are too large nowadays to risk tax free. So I am in a good company now, in which i will proudly promote lol .Its northfinance. Its one of the big money dealers but 100 dollar minimum. But it forces leverage on you if you are that low.

But yeh, Marketiva reminds me of 12dp. Lol. Any broker that offers a comission for afilliates = scam.

Oanda I keep hearing bad things about also, go to something like interbankfx or northfinance etc.

If u do more research,u should know that interbankfx and northfinance also have some problems but I don't want to talk bad about them.

Don't u know that every broker offer IB or affiliates except Oanda? Wish u luck in trading.

Yes, even famous broker like FXCM also got affiliates. Are they scam too?

Marketiva is ok for n00bs since you get the $5 free to make or (usually) lose. The support is fine in chat mode and the chat room is amusing, but dont listen to anybody there lol.
True, if you have large amounts, go to Oanda or my fave, North Finance but for starters, Marketiva is fine. The $8 withdraw fee is a bit of a killer though.

OANDA wot charge any fee for withdraw and no restriction of small amount fundings!

it depend on your trading amount.
I still can afford the $8 fee for marketiva.
As i can fund at no fee into marketiva.

Interbankfx and Northfinance don't have any of the problems of marketiva/oanda. You're now posting information that is false.

FXCM charged me x3 the interest supposed to. So in my words they are a scam. But they have a little bit better facilities than the above mentioned.

Just a question phildunn, does ronald pay you to post on these forums praise for marketiva. Some of my posts are at least pro and con to marketiva. You just praise it like the sun shines from its ass.

You can't even post proof-ful information to go with your praise. You're only information is something like "You're wrong, marketiva rules". I.E you are either being paid, or your brainwashed. Or newbie. And judging by the amount of idiots in marketiva chat (the username dr_gaines comes to mind) I wouldn't doubt that you fit right in.

I have screenshots of threats by marketiva staff of legal action, I can provide this proof. Why did they threaten me? Coz I told someone not to trade with marketiva but to find somewhere else. Who reported this? I believe ronald said it was you.

Do yourself a favour and stick to hyip and autosurf, at least you fit into that industry.

there there... let this cool down

its the wednesday rollover, you will receive 3 times interest if you on 2% margin account.

Yeh, but that happens on wednesday, I am aware of that. But i believe my timezone isnt 2 days in front of FXCM's ^^

so what you saying is they charged you 3x on monday? do you have a screenshot?

No no. I just like to trade with Marketiva. Better concentrate on your trading.

P/S: By the way I also like to trade with Oanda.

must mentioned that you will get 3 times intrest in OANDA---->
its the wednesday rollover, you will receive 3 times interest if you on 2% margin account.

but if you are on fxcm they will charge you intrest by the way they will soon be called scam same as REFCO as net assets are going down ay by day...

It looks to me like you are promoting Oanda here, and not comparing Marketiva and Oanda ;-)

I use Oanda.... I dont think Marketiva is available to US residents is it?

you are correct doublemeup.

hi moneymaker

sorry, but i dont quite get what you mean on the first sentence.

in oanda, there is no wednesday rollover since the interest are being calculated second by second including weekends and holidays, yes you will pay/receive interest even you dont hold positions over the rollover time.

on fxcm, they DO pay you interest if your have 2% margin account (1:50 leverage). i was a FXCM client, so i think i know about the refco case, but the fact is that Refco has no operational say in FXCM day to day operations, nor does it affect FXCM operations in anyway. recently i have 'heard' REFCO canada has been bought by another company and things has been solved and things are getting done on REFCO US.

Just for information,FXCM had given up on bidding Refco last month. Refco now is officially in receivership just like emo case.

i just found out something happened to EMO didnt the FXCM get the highest bid?

Of course it's the highest one because FXCM is the only one company bid on Refco but refco's creditors rejected their deal everytime so FXCM have to give up.

i know there is no rollover in OANDA i was talking about intrest.... and i was comparing fxcm with REFCO according to CFTC report as REFCO is bankcorrupt now and Hotspot is almost going to file bankcorrupcy as thier net assets dropped to -1.2 million and also fxcm as thier net assets dropped to 19 million they are no more populer brokers in forex.

I don't use fxcm anymore. I wouldnt take a screenshot of being charged extra interest. I just withdrew and left.

At the moment im on northfinance, they are charging me correct interest/paying correct (So far ive been paid more than charged D:D) Anyway of the 2 mentioned, I think i trust oanda more. But oanda has bad service.

Can someone please explain what the interest charges are for? Im a bit confused as to what it is. Someone mentioned that OANDA charges it everyday, whether you are holding position or not. So just for having money with them I would get a charge?

Thanks!

No, your position is the thing that gathers interest. The interest is basically the cost to keep a position open. Every trading account has an interest set to each pair (varies from pair to pair). Some pairs pay you interest because of the currency change difference. Its complicated to get into. But basically if you trade long term you get charged a bit (few cents usually). But positions like G/U pay you a bit.

Thats a bad explanation I know, but I don't want to get technical and have stupid arguments with people without a financial degree.

for large amount of money go for fxcm.com

Maybe when the new cloud above them rises, but I don't personally trust oanda or marketiva with large sums of money, frankly coz they both have issued they need to resolve.

Interbankfx would be my number 1 pick. But I don't use it.

Why you don't use it since it is your number 1 pick?

Coz of a restriction. I am not eligable for a small time. I might move over if the current broker i use falls. But that might not be for a long time.

I dont think you are correct in your first advantage for oanda.
1.OANDA's pips spread is better than every US or world broker so for the short term trades OANDA is very best.

they dont got fixed spread like marketiva or any other broker ,Their spreads may change at market tight schedule and may jump to 5-10 from 2 which is their current.

and as for your
3. OANDA is giving intrests on lots .Marketiva is not
but oanda is charging overnight intrest and marketiva is not.

5. OANDA gives full support on phone fax etc. Marketiva dont have phone fax numbers
still marketiva online and email support is better than oanda.

6- Another advantages of OANDA over marketiva is hedging capibility
But still you forget to mention that oanda charge large amount for hedging.from marketiva you can do hedging for free but on small amount.

7- Trade from anywhere anytime on OANDA website but marketiva software needs to be installed on specific computer.
That shows that marketiva security is better than oanda.(dont forget marketiva is fully computerised company.and fully secured.)

marketiva give email support and do payout on saturday and sunday where other brokers are not.

The only thing I don't like about Oanda is they only offer 1:50 leverage. The rest are ok for me.

I think Oanda is the best broker out there. I also wish they had higher leverage though.

I've used both Marketiva and Oanda trading Live accounts and I must say Oanda is my favourite broker. I personally know people who actually win money every month consistantly in Oanda trading live. I've also used fxcm, GCI and Interbankfx but nothing comes close to Oanda. Yes the leverage is Low but its a very good thing otherwise you end up burning your account very quickly. I also found out that using Oanda improves your patience because the leverage is low. Every trader knows how important patience is when it comes to trading.

Goodluck Folks

Oanda spread is tight and this is the only thing which make them popular. Anyway, please take a look to their swap interest and withdraw fee, and you will know that their services are actually not as cheap as in expected.

Maybe you should do that too..

U can withdraw paypal or check free once per month but following withdrawals will charge fees.

Paypal is not available in my country. Check have to wait for a long time fore clearing also.

I prefer bank wire which is fast and safe. They should seriouslt consider to reduce the bank wire withdraw charges.

Why marketiva can make it as low as $15 , but they can't?

I'm currently using NF,

i always see "swap" ....
if i trade over night, some time they charged me and some time they pay me....

it it interest ??



by the way, anyone tried to earn by the interest ??

and which is the best for trading ?
i like Marketiva, but they dun have the features of "trail stop", which makes me exit the market at the wrong time

I am sure that Marketiva has very ambitious projects on the way and they will have many additional features and capabilities within their application in the near future. They are very hard working and smart people.

I don't agree. My opinion about Marketiva changed dramatically over time. I don't think the word of anyone who's only 4 posts are Marketiva cheerleading holds much weight.

Your opinion is shrouded with prejudice. make some key stokes and research other forex brokers. You will be amazed at the results : Marketiva possess superior qualities and competencies.

As you have only posted crap about marketiva. You're opinion is 100% biased and really not really innocent..

I am a man of integrity and honesty and you are a scam artist. Marketiva is the best forex broker. I advise you to research forex brokers : 99.99% of them prey on credulous clients.

I have done the homework and came to the conclusion that marketiva is very poor. See my replies to your numerous other marketing spams on other threads.

You can say that about yourself always. You call me a scammer? How? I don't have anything to scam people with. You are just another admin under another alias. Might I add that caps lock is very unprofessional and bad mannered.

90% of online brokers are scams, what makes marketiva so different? Absolutely nothing. The only difference is, they mass advertise for newbies to come lose their money. Why? Because they don't trade in the market. If they did they wouldn't have an affiliate program or all the other OBVIOUS scam attributes.

Claiming that you yourself are honest and with integrity? I am sorry, but thats very arrogant of you. Other opinion of yourself, especially on a forum, mean alot more than your own opinion of yourself.

Which country do you come from? One where the education system is that of a pre-school in a developed country? I hate to be racist, but facts are facts. You are obviously undereducated, and are in dire need of money. Sorry mate, but marketiva won't make you rich. If anything it will just make your life harder.
