“So, I haven't written anything about brokers in a long time. But a couple of months ago, I moved to this broker, and I'm ready to share my impressions about trading here. I know that a lot of people will find this information useful. Because it's hard to choose a company by the descriptions alone on the website. So what do I like about this broker? 1. The tight spreads. That is really the first thing I want to point out. Because without considering the costs of trading, all the other advantages would not be that significant. After all, the main goal of every trader is to make money. And with huge spreads, it's impossible. 2. Affordable minimum deposit. It is essential for those who want to test the company's conditions or haven't saved money for a significant deposit. 3. Excellent regulation. The company has many licenses. So the question of whether it is legal completely disappears by itself. 4. For me, the most convenient and straightforward trading platforms. These are MT4 and MT5. I'm accustomed to it, and it works for years without failures. 5. Protection against negative balance. If you don't remember, in spring 2020, a customer of Interactive Brokers had an accident. When the oil fell below zero, he owed the company $80 million, if I'm not mistaken. The story is old, and I don't remember all the details. So that was when I first thought it was necessary to find a broker with protection against negative balance. Because there really are unpredictable situations on the market. So this is my list. I will be glad if this list is useful to any beginning trader when choosing a broker.”

“I opened a Fixed account with this broker because I don’t want to deal with floating ones. Of course, as rule, they are advertised as quite low, but they tend to drastically widen in times of volatility. Fortunately, I don’t notice that with the Fixed account. Despite the spreads are higher, but the fact they are intact gives me peace of mind.”

“Some folks tend to choose brokers who offer a lot of bonus promotions or who offer to get started with very low trading deposits. Perhaps, you might have already seen brokers allowing to trade with ten bucks or even a smaller amount. There’s no wonder about it because many brokers offer to work with so-called cent accounts. From my point of view, such trading accounts are absolutely worthless because they have much in common with demo accounts. You can’t learn trading when using very small amounts. You aren’t afraid of losing them. As a result, you can’t train your psychology. I prefer to deal with veteran brokers. These are reliable companies who earn from spreads, so they don’t need to offer bonuses or very low deposits. That’s the sign that they cater to serious investors. I trade with one of such brokers. That’s HYCM. I like its trouble-free trading process. I’ve been trading with this company for three years and I know that’s the place where I can withdraw money at any time. It gives me peace of mind and I don’t want to look for alternatives.”

“Although I’m prone to trusting veteran brokers, nevertheless, I took some time to attentively study HYCM reviews online. I only understood that reviews are mostly subjective and they can hardly be the very thing to base your opinion about the broker. Tastes differ you know and experiences differ too. Very few people are capable of composing an objective review because in most cases they have a concrete interest in the broker that prevents them from forming an objective picture of the subject. So, I decided to join the company to test the trading process here and I did it. During registration, I had several issues, but their customer support manager was so kind to navigate me through the process and it was the first positive impression of the company. The trading process didn’t bring me unpleasant surprises - I can trade conveniently with the broker - it doesn’t manipulates prices, so I can enter the market at the price I want. Besides this, I tested the withdrawal process and it all went smoothly too. It makes me further trade with the broker.”

“I’ve been trading with this broker for more than a year and I don’t regret joining this company. I should say that it’s the first veteran broker in my life. Previously, I was used to trading with young brokers started in the 2010s. These companies offered a lot of bonus promotions but lacked reliability. I often had withdrawal issues with them. What’s more, there were situations when I failed to enter the market at the price I wanted. Perhaps, they couldn’t execute my orders due to some liquidity issues. Fortunately, I don’t face any of that unpleasant stuff mentioned above with this broker. I know that I can trade conveniently and the broker will not prevent me from opening a trading position at the desired price.”

“One of the best brokers at all, at least among those that I've found. First of all, it's regulated and that's good, I never trust unregulated financial companies, as I had negative experience with one of unregulated companies. Spreads are okey, can't say they're the lowest, but if you trade Fixed spreads, then that's probably one of the best offerings. Variable spreads don't sound to be so tasty, but it's also okey, around 1.3 for majors.”

“Tried raw spreads the other day, and it's cool, but of course in case you trade regularly - very handy! The commission is the lowest!”

“When deciding to start trading with this broker, I was mostly motivated by two two reasons. The first reason is that I thought that a company with a 40-year experience can’t be a scam project and I should say that they met my expectation. Secondly, I found their spreads attractive enough for my scalping style. It especially applies to a Raw account that I chose when registering with this broker. With this account, I can enjoy spreads starting at 0.2 pips. Another thing I need to mention is that I had no problems with withdrawing my earnings. Each time I start trading with a new broker I always worry when it comes to withdrawing money because there’s a possibility to say goodbye to your funds, but with this broker, I withdraw money without delay.”

“This is a very decent broker with a small deposit. I think $100 of minimal deposit in HYCM is more than an affordable choice for traders, especially for beginners. What else? I read many reviews about this company before I started trading. And I've made sure they were mostly positive or neutral. There wasn't much negativity on the forums compared to other brokers. This is a good sign. After all, HYCM is multi-regulated. Its activities are monitored by several serious organizations. I think this also works to the benefit of the clients. And the company's 40 years on the market is a severe figure. Obviously, the broker doesn't want to spoil its reputation by dubious trading conditions. So they offer the right conditions. By good terms, I mean the availability of different types of accounts in HYCM. They are divided so that everyone can choose the one that suits one best. Another advantage is relatively tight spreads. I can't say they are the tightest in the market. But those companies that offer tighter spreads already have minimal experience in the market. So I'm all the same for reliability and stable trading conditions.”

“It's cool that this company has several regulations, it increases the credibility of the company and it allows it to attract more traders who are interested in serious work. In addition, there are raw spreads here - which is pure delight!”

“I’ve been trading with HYCM for two months and I get mostly positive emotions. I can’t complain about the execution - my orders aren’t suspended, they are instantly processed by the broker. It takes me an hour or so to have my earnings withdrawn to my Skrill account.”

“That's one of the brokers that changed the industry and made it better and, in my opinion, that's the main reason to admire this brokerage. I'm trading with it since 2000's and I saw how company was changing: launching new entities, education and powerfull workshops that are inspiring people all around the Globe. Newcomers wouldn't understand that. But it was so much brokers that went out the scene for that time, but that company is still on its place and improving each year. For me that's the best evidence that I have chose the right place to invest my money, so now I'm calm and know that my funds are safe. Gratz!”

“It seems to me that HYCM reviews do not reflect the real situation in this company. Almost everything depends on your feeling in the market, because while working you have to face many obstacles and observe all kinds of speculations and use different strategies in this changing conditions, etc... And you can only cope with all of this if you're in an objectively normal environment, which a brokerage company will provide you with. I noticed that there is no problem with the trading platform (I use mt4) and there is always actual news from the market, so I don't need to use any additional resources to find data to make decisions about the market. Of course that's not everything you need to be profitable, but it's definitely something that can be an important part of your job and it's true...”

“I’m afraid of losing my hard-earned money and it makes me look for only the most respected brokerage services. You know that trading is a very challenging thing and even experienced traders may lose money when they fail to forecast the market. However, people may lose money not only due to an incorrect market forecast but also due to a scam broker. You may deposit money to your account and then say goodbye to your capital. Unfortunately, this happens from time to time. I guess collaborating only with proven brokers is the only way out. This broker belongs to the category of the proven ones. It has a forty-year experience in the industry and it gives me grounds to trust it.”

“The broker offers excellent trading conditions. I chose for myself the Raw account. There are the most reasonable spreads in it. I found that even in combination with a small commission, it's profitable. And I wasn't wrong! The conditions really fit my trading strategy perfectly. And the higher deposit makes me not be greedy, but invest a comfortable amount of money in trading. It's a nice solution.”

“I’ve been practicing scalping for three years. As you might have guessed, spreads are my number one concern when choosing a new broker. It’s because too high spreads make my scalping a daunting task. Respectively, I stay away from brokers with wide spreads. This broker suits me as a scalper. I opened a Raw account and now I enjoy ultra-low spreads from 0,2 pips. Of course, the broker has to somehow compensate these spreads for itself and for this purpose it charges $4 each time I enter the market. It’s ok. I’m ready to pay this commissions. Its still more favorable than classic account.”

“I have been working with HYCM for a year and I have something to write about it. Despite the fact that some reviews about it are negative, I haven't found those disadvantages of the brokerage. I decided to start trading because I was looking for an additional opportunity to earn money, and besides I wanted to spend more time on self-development. As it seemed to me, trading includes both my wishes, and I decided to try it. It turned out that finding a reliable broker that you can trust is quite difficult. But then I found a brokerage that has been working in the market since 1977, and during this time it managed to create and maintain a fairly positive reputation. So I decided to give this broker a chance and open a Classic account, because it has the best trading conditions (I write about HYCM here, by the way). And now, as I have already written, a year has passed since I started working with this broker. So far, I have no complaints or disappointments about the broker or its work. Of course, I have had some small questions or misunderstandings during trading, but the client support has always helped me. So I am glad that my broker is HYCM, it works for me.”

“I appreciate this broker for decent trading conditions. Their minimum deposit is quite affordable for anyone with serious intentions. Just one hundred evergreen bucks. I really have no idea how to get started with ten bucks. You know many brokers in the market try to attract this way. HYCM is different. Established in the previous century, it’s too respected to focus on such trifles as micro deposits and suspicious bonus promotions. Instead, it offers good execution, reliable platforms and trouble-free withdrawals.”

“Every person faces certain difficulties in the market. Because it has a lot of fluctuations and unexpected changes, and it requires a lot of knowledge and constant search, and it takes a really long time to get the necessary experience and professionalism. And I also feel that this company supports traders and supports the idea that trading is just a business, not some kind of entertainment. Most of all I am attracted here by fixed spreads - only from 1.8 points, although I also worked with raw ones - but stopped because I do not trade so often. I also liked the toolkit for analysis, in general, it has everything you can imagine.”
