Just a quick update - Pepperstone processed my withdrawal request promptly with no fuss.  As far as I can tell this broker is fine.

i have the same experience. No probelm to withdraw from Pepperstone. They even sent to the way (to cc) so i hadn't pay the wire fee.

BTW I am playing with ctrader now. How difficult would be either connect FSB to it or use FSB strategies to create Ctrader strategy - it is both written in C#? right;)

Definitely I'll support everybody who wants to connect FST with cTrader.


Thanks Popov ... Looking for alternatives my self

I've seen all sorts of fear campaigns run against this broker over the last couple of years, none of which have had any substance & look to have been dirty tricks being played by competitors.  Not saying that's the case now, but it makes me wary of accepting warnings about Pepperstone on face value.

This thread's really gone OT now smile

There's plenty of reviews around if you want to read further, and quite a few brokers that offer it now.  I'm running demos with IC Markets and am waiting for Pepperstone to support it (apparently coming very soon).

Sorry for derailing the thread btw.

Nice work Popov, I'll try it tomorrow.  Btw I am starting a transition away from MT4 to cTrader, basically because I have no confidence that MetaQuotes care about my best interests as a trader.  This has been building for a while due to the fiasco that is MT5, but what really got me to move was their recent build 500 with its pre-emptive strike against 3rd party service providers such as MT4i and myfxbook.

If other traders do the same and a growing tide shifts towards cTrader, which is a far superior platform to MT4 anyway, it might be something to consider with FST.  cTrader happens to be C# based as well, with open APIs.   Just thought I'd mention it smile

Hey Slipshod,

It's OT, but what makes cTrader distinctively better than MT?

It looks like MetaQuotes have decided they want to provide some of the services that MT4i and myfxbook (and others) were offering, so they kill off the competition rather than work with them & don't care whether traders used those 3rd party services or not.  I can't trust my means of making a living with a company that makes such self-interested, arrogant and capricious decisions.
