I have a pretty ambiguous opinion about the XS broker cuz I have an immense expertise in this field as an acting trader. You can't even imagine how many brokers I've changed over the past several years, and everything is because I always find something that I don't really like. Here, besides the account types diversification, everything is oky. So, why I claim this? $5k for the best account is too much if the company positions itself as a newbie-friendly. They don't have such sums... Other conditions are acceptable. My lovly metatrader, responsive client support which passed successfully through my proprietary "assessment" and so on =) In general, the company has a right for existence and it can even compete many renowned names in the industry.
