My experience with octafx was positive as it comes to the execution time and spreads. They have amazing conditions here. However, I wasn't too happy about spreads changing from time to time. The support service told me it happens because of the liquidity providers and they personally can't do anything about it. I heard about this problem with the liquidity providers so I guess I can' really blame the broker. So all in all I'm happy that I've chosen this broker.
