I'm having trouble finding legit reviews of brokers that use OEC. I understand they were bought out by Gain awhile ago and Gain may have gotten in some trouble for fraud? Too bad because I used the OEC platform years ago and liked it. I have thinkorswim through Ameritrade now and I find it clunky and counterintuitive. I considered opening an account with futuresonline but was scared off by the lack of trustworthy reviews...I've been out of the loop for awhile so I'm pretty wary of scams.
Thanks!

I use OEC which is Gain Capital now. I've had an account now with them for almost 8-9 years. I haven't always been active because I lost quite a bit of monies in the beginning But I have to say their platform is really good! One of the best I have used and I've tried a lot of these platforms in commodity business. They've gone through a lot of changes with the platform but the version it is now and they also have iBroker for your smart phone or tablet is super convenient. I'm on my iPad a lot and I do check many of my trades on my iPad but I do still place most of my trades on my desktop. Great firm to work with. I was introduced to them by my broker Cannon Trading which they are really good too. But overall Gain's platform is definitely one of the best!
I should add that I had no issues with OEC/GAIN but was forced to close the account, rather than choosing to do so due to GAIN no longer being unable to accept residents of NZ.
