Custom ECN Account Lure: High Deposits, Spreads, and Lackluster Support

They lured me in with this so-called 'Custom ECN' account. Nice marketing move, eh? It's supposed to be some tailor-made, fancy styling of a trading account that lets you trade like a pro. I thought ‘why not take a crack at it,’ seeing as I don't mind spending a little to make a lot, right? But THEN, get this - the deposit requirement on that bad boy were through the roof! I mean, we're not all rolling in dough, mate! And you'd think with the high deposits and ridiculously unstable spreads 'someone' would have the courtesy to offer half decent customer service, right? Wrong again! The support team was about as helpful as a chocolate tea pot. I got more insight on trading conditions from reading brew leaves!
