Have any RT's seen MatchbookFX at 

http://www.matchbookfx.com/index.html 

I gather this is like an ECN so there wouldn't be any slippage and/or funny business.
I would appreciate any opinions, experience, etc. since I am considering opening an account with them, 
but frankly, I am pretty green when it comes to spot currency trading.

Thanks in advance & best regards,

Levent Erbora

They will not give you 5 pip spread like they said they would..  More like
25-40pips

This is from real actual experience I had with this outfit..  They are in
biz of cutting your arms and legs off!

I would rather trade globex...  If have to trade forex, one should @ least
have 100k with proper bank connections..

regards
