FXCM, the world’s largest FX broker, have released a new version of MT4 with improved features. You can now trade micro lots (0.01 lots) which is a great addition for clients with a small account balance, as they will be in a better position to use proper risk management.

Oanda on MetaTrader 4
Posted on 25. Jan, 2011 by Jakob.
I am very pleased to see that Oanda will be upping their game, with the addition of MT4.

This also means that traders will be able to continue the use of MyFxBook with their Oanda accounts. I contacted Oanda to know when it is possible to get an MetaTrader 4 account, and it seems to be a couple of weeks away. If you want to stay on top of things, keep an eye out, over at their forum.

Forex Crunch Redesign
Posted on 16. Jan, 2011 by Jakob.
Well I probably not a first mover, with the news right here, but I still thought it was worth mentioning. Yohay, the founder of Forex Crunch has gone through a major redesign of his site. Now it has more a feel of a portal than just a simple wordpress blog, and I like it. I have thought about the same thing for some time, but I think that will have to wait a bit. Anyhow, I think Yohay has done a good job, and continues to do so with new content every single day. I am currently browsing around on the site, reading his 5 points on how to choose a forex broker in 2011. Thumbs up Yohay. Keep up the good work.
