We had to remove instant order execution, after someone demonstrated a way of abusing this feature.

We will try everything to re-enable this feature again as soon as possible; I cannot give any estimations when this happens, however.

Instant order has been removed and nothing in the blog to explain?

Hi - I just started using 1broker about 1 month ago, and want to say I'm EXTREMELY pleased with the platform and performance. Leadership at 1broker is also giving me some confidence/assurance that 1broker is in somewhat able hands. I would be more worried if they haphazardly and perhaps irresponsibly were adding a bunch of esoteric micro-markets for obscure alt currencies. 1broker has a full suite of investment options, from forex to commodiities, equity indices, individual stocks, and yes, BTC.

My primary concern is security ... but in the btc space isn't it always? Hope you guys have essentially all your coins in cold storage, secured by a multi-sig account. Have you considered outsourcing your cold storage to XAPO? To the extent I'm comfortable with security at 1broker, I'm happy to trade my entire but modest stash of btc with them. Hopefully it continues to grow ... :-)

Anyway, over the near-term I am short the S&P, Nikkei 225, Tesla, and considering to add a long Yen position.

Please keep up the good work 1broker!

We are glad to hear you are having a positive trading experience!
Security has always been of the highest priority for us, and we take every possible measure to improve upon our current measures in place.
As mentioned before, we do not have any plans to add alts at this time.

Have you considered outsourcing your cold storage to XAPO?

Why should they risk that? Giving all the bitcoin funds they hold to another company? I would not know what to think of that. Don't they trust themselves, do they trust others more? And even when, how should they react when xapo goes down by being hacked or a scam happening.

I think it would be an even higher risk which might be hard to explain to 1broker users.

Yes i agree with you. I trust 1Broker. Then if i Know that they deposit my BTC on external wallet from other company, i surely witdraw all my found .

Yep. Only need to read up on what happened to the SYScoin funds, to know that 'outsourcing' is a bad idea.

I trade on 1Broker since June 2015 (with my and other managed account not mine) . It's a good broker with low spread on Forex Major. Order are fast and server going well (not freeze). Spread on BTC USD is too high (and leverage too low). Overnight fee are too exprensive (please reduce them).

I advice them for all broker who want to Trade Forex and Index in BTC.

Are you planning to add more cryptos like LTC/USD in the near future?

Currently there are no plans to add any other crypto pairs.

I think there are too many  people interested in the possibility of make loans to traders like bitfinex or Polonies if it is possible
thanks

Hello,
when you planning reduce over night charge? Unbelievable big you have..

Have open order for 0.17 ($50) and over night charge is 0.0055 ($1.53)


Good news that Bit4X.com already have MT4 and now testing mbtc accounts.  Maybe this competing will bring better terms for trading because this over night charge is extremely high.


Bit4x now has mBTC accounts.

The day following Thanksgiving Day is traditionally the beginning of the Christmas shopping season, and in the past decade it has become tradition that businesses offer special promotions on the day known as Black Friday. The day's name originated in Philadelphia, where it  was originally used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic that would occur on the day after Thanksgiving. To follow this tradition, we have decided to offer something too! On Friday, November 27th, all of our spreads will be reduced by 75%.

Since a regular trading day goes from 5:15pm-5:00pm (New York Time), this promotion will start on Thursday, November 26th at 5:15pm and will end on Friday, November 27th at 5:00pm.

We wish everyone a relaxing and calm December.

Follow all the latest news and updates: https://1broker.com/?c=blog

Sounds cool, too bad i don't have time to trade. Though maybe observing this spread leads to a lower spread generally in the future because it works out for you? Well, dreaming is allowed. Tongue
