The Interface

The screen may appear quite confusing at first because of the multiplicity of tabs. However once you look closely, you will see that this is actually a positive feature, because all actions are just a click away. For instance, at the click of a button you can cancel and reverse a trade. You also get e-mail and SMS alerts at various milestones, like stop trade activation.

Tools like Accucharts and GTS Charts help you carry out trading efficiently, though for the former you will need to switch platforms.

Some amount of training is offered on the site, you can learn about some basic forex strategies like carry trading, while more is available for a price on CDs and other modes. Customer support is good upto a point. FX Solutions does not provide personal account managers though you can hire trading agents to carry out your business for you.

On the whole, the site, which is technologically very sound, can be rated somewhere in the middle of the chart because of reasons like mediocre customer support and business terms that could be better.
