Btc.sx is an FX style trading platform that we run. It runs from a broker model and executes orders out to market via BitStamp for settlement. It allows leveraged trading without the complexity of margin trading and the management of margin.

They seem pretty responsive to e-mail, etc.

Regarding this:
Quote
Server wallet does not have enough funds!
For security reasons we only store a small amount of Bitcoins on the main server. Please try again later.
If you urgently need to withdraw please contact the support.

I messaged support.. they replied telling me that new funds would be moved to the hot wallet within 1 hour... and I have already withdrawn my BTC.. so pretty good service.

I'm starting to hit the limits of what you can do with 1broker.com, as evidenced by 2 messages I got today:

It seems like a shady company, they dont list any contact information as to where their company is registered, and their domain is registered with a proxy. Also that their ToS basically lets them steal all your money at any time if your trading "reduces our other clients legitimate trading experience". And really, how hard is it for a exchange to be able to cover a 3 btc withdrawl?

I will be trying out http://bit4x.com/ to see if they can take more volume... although from their website I'm guessing that withdrawals/funding will not be as automatic and user-driven as with 1broker... we'll see... As usual, I'll share my experience with the community here and score the site for the 3 usual categories.

The first when I tried to short EURUSD with BTC3 and 200x leverage.

Quote
Maximum leverage on this trade is 500 BTC

The second when I tried to withdraw BTC3 and the profit from the trade that I was actually able to carry out.

Quote

These limitations are obviously a big problem to any pro daytrader... as it means that you can only use this broker for small trades.

Well.. BBG did add a news and price feed, that's pretty impressive:

It looks like ICBIT had a major website overhaul... nice to see that they are growing... as mature derivatives markets will be a major requisite in making Bitcoin stable.

I've been testing Kraken.. quite a bit of fun. Will update with review.. funding/withdrawal speed, etc.




BTC withdrawal/funding was very fast (10 mins approx). Trading is focused on cryptocurrencies, so I would consider this an exchange rather than a proper brokerage platform for mainstream financial assets... Nevertheless I was very impressed by the platform. Hopefully in the future they can add more instruments, currencies, etc.. to really fullfil their "Forex meets Bitcoin exchange" tagline.

I also liked their user verification process.. more streamlined than the old Mt.Gox system, and allows some functionalities without having to upload a lot of documents (although it is required to be allowed to fund/withdraw via wire).

Bitcoin trading was very efficient, low spreads, nice liquidity.

Broker Score: 2

BTC deposit/withdraw score: 9

BTC trading score: 8

It's going down should I sell and buy lower? Please help does anyone anticipate it will go down lower?

I wonder if people still trade the highly volatile BTC/USD pair?
