Been using their software for 3 yeras. Generally the platform is ok, the options they sell are too expensive. I have had several experiances of stops not being executed at the stop level. Also, market entry orders are not always enetered at the first instance, the system waits and despite the market entry price becoming more favourable, they still give me the worst market entry point.
I still use there software, but try and control stops and market orders myself with price alerts which seem to be far more resoponsive.

"""The platform is horrible, too many errors and delay. I have experienced an error such as "internal server error". You cannot place an order, cancel an order or even change your stop loss, unless you sign out and sign in again."""---CORRECT 100%
"""You stop loss does not stop at the point you set......""

Saxo Bank does not offer any platform for automated trading (either free or payed). Also the minimum initial deposit is 10,000. They must be the only broker in the world who require a 10,000 intial deposit without offering any automation. Unbelievable.

Please stay away from Saxobank. It is the worth broker ever. It takes only few second to deposit your account, but it is extremely difficult to withdraw cash from your account. I withdrawn my money last week, but haven't got any money so far and I am not sure if I would get it.
I have called them several times, and they said everytime I called that you would get money today, but money never be transferred to my bank account.
The platform is horrible, too many errors and delay. I have experienced an error such as "internal server error". You cannot place an order, cancel an order or even change your stop loss, unless you sign out and sign in again.
You stop loss does not stop at the point you set, and you will always loose money more than you have set your stop loss.
They wrote on their website, that the minimum deposit is 2000 USD, but this account is not available, and they will ask you to pay 10000 USD for deposit.
Saxobank is SCAMP. Please stay away from them.
