Sunbird FX offers forex currency trading and CFD products, and its objective is to provide its client traders with a wide range of innovative ways to successfully trade financial instruments while strictly holding to its own integrity and code of ethics.
Sunbird was established in late 2005 to service the institutional forex market. Clients from that time up until today include hedge funds, white labels, broker dealers. In 2010 the company decided to approach the retail market, but with offerings that would also suit institutions.
Having identified the many advantages of transparent trading with no dealing desk execution (NDD), Sunbird chose to provide its forex traders the option of establishing direct connection with international banks through an ECN platform to the best price feed, regardless of account Size.
Since its beginnings, Sunbird has made it their objective to maintain the same interests as its clients – this is the key which has allowed them to progress rapidly while maintaining both transparency and credibility. One of their best moves has been adding the option for clients who choose it, to direct all their trades to the Interbank markets via the 3 top electronic trading platforms in the world: MetaTrader 4, Currenex and G-Pro. This single decision has allowed Sunbird FX clients to enjoy benefits which in the past were only enjoyed by professional clients with equity in the hundreds of thousands of dollars!

Sunbirdfx has great platforms, and they are about to launch the mt5 platform and it looks very promising, im quite satisfied .
I started in the Forex market just 5 months ago. One friend who understands the market told me back then that whatever broker I chose, it should be ECN with NDD. So I picked up the Sunbird platform. I started with a demo for about three weeks, and right after I felt confidence, I opened a real account. I had gains and loses during this “learning period”, but I can say that Sunbirdfx is a great broker who assists me whenever I need it.
What’s a decent berkor which is not a seedy bucket shop but still not to high priced?I want something that I can start off with with around $500 or so just so I can learn the ropes and make my little trades. I’ve read warnings about certain berkors which are unregulated bucket shops and aren’t insured properly either. But are there any decent berkors which don’t charge terribly high fees but still are decent?
I opened an account with sunbirdfx 4 months ago after 3 months of testing their demo platform. I do scalping trading and always had problems with broker that did not like traders like me so they manipulate my trades. Before I opened the live account at sunbirdfx I talked with the sales department and made it clear how I am going to trade and they say it was just fine. At first I thought it would be like it was in every new broker that “promise” that things would be OK, but I was very surprised to find out that sunbirdfx actually welcomes scalpers: no requotes, VERY FAST, stop loss works 99% of the time and I get my money right after I send the withdrawal request. Highly recommended!
