So, I've been using FXTRADING.com for almost 3 years now, and it's one of the best forex brokers I've ever met. They let you set up API trading, which is awesome for automation freaks like me. Plus, they offer VPS hosting. A ton of stuff to trade too, stocks, forex, even cryptos! And the spreads seem pretty tight, so I'm not getting ripped off on fees. Yes, I've recommended it to several friends.
