Does anyone have experience with the bridge and any comments?
Thanks.

Dislikedthere is no charges on deposits and withdrawals...the payments go through SWIFT system, they use Dukaskopy Bank SA => you should ask in your bank how they charges incomming/outgoing payments from/to SwitzerlandIgnored
DislikedThen what exactly is the difference between the good old 5000 account and a $100 account? What would make me want to have the 5k account over the new one?Ignored
Disliked...It could be that EU subsidiary becomes market maker with Swiss liquidity provider......Ignored

DislikedI questioned the Dukascopy Bank SA about Latvian branch being a MM and the answer was:
''In accordance with White Label Agreement with Dukascopy Bank SA, Dukascopy Europe provides to its clients an access to the Swiss Foreign Exchange Marketplace on the same conditions which are available to the clients of Dukascopy Bank.''
So I think there should be no doubt about it, now..Ignored
Dislikedif the Dukas rep could be kind enough to just give us a simple yes or no.
it would clear up the matter once and for all.Ignored
Dislikedwell, my bad - the whole message I got from Ducaskopy Bank SA about Ducaskopy Europe was -
''[03/11/2011 10:30:53] Dukascopy Bank SA: Dukascopy Europe is an ECN
[03/11/2011 10:31:26]Dukascopy Bank SA: In accordance with White Label Agreement with Dukascopy Bank SA, Dukascopy Europe provides to its clients an access to the Swiss Foreign Exchange Marketplace on the same conditions which are available to the clients of Dukascopy Bank.

DislikedHow safe is Dukascopy and keeping your funds there now with all the mess in Europe and the recent death of MF Global?
A lively honest discussion needed.Ignored
DislikedHey guys,
hope you're having a nice weekend and thank you for the 'arisen' questions, worries. These can move us further, in choosing the 'best' broker with small capital and not a dealer!
to pa18: your funds are kept in Switzerland, which is a neutral, bank country with steady bank system and not a member of European Union...well, how safe was Lehman Brothers in USA?? So at this point I wouldn't worry..
to roughtrader: I will get to you soon, regarding the small units trading, anyway in the 15th paragraph of Agreement on trading with Dukascopy...Ignored
DislikedYes what they are clearly saying
is they are taking the other side as any Market Maker would do,
atleast they are very honest saying so.Ignored
DislikedActually this is not exclusive to Dukascopy. All retail ECN brökers I traded at, such as MB Trading, say the same, i.e. that they are the direct counterparty to your trades. Just check their user agreements to see for yourself.
As a matter of fact, this issue has already been discussed in their thread and in this thread I think (not sure).
Basically, when they say that, I don't think it means that they are a MM pretending to be an ECN. It just means that on a transaction level you don't deal directly with the liquidity providers, you...Ignored
DislikedI'm pissed with Dukascopy because not only do they slip my trades every time (I sell on bid and buy on ask, and give them 0.3 pips "room" on top of that), but they also impose a time penalty of a full second on any (consecutive) action exerted through their api. A f****** full second!
In one second price can move a considerably amount of pips at times. This is just unacceptable! It's an intentional atempt to tamper with the trades. What is the use of api (automated) trading when you can make a move only once every second?! Here an example: I want...Ignored
DislikedI think this may not be intentional but this is how some APIs behaveIgnored
DislikedThen they reject the request with the message "can't change requested amount more than once in a second".Ignored
DislikedWhat a joke! Therefore I do not recommend Dukascopy to anyone! At least not if your trading-style is not "slow".Ignored
