I hear what you are saying. This is actually why I double checked with support about all the specifics and issues we can face. I’d be highly disappointed if support lied to me, but I’m pretty sure they didn’t. Leverage is necessary for sure. Everyone has own understanding of excessiveness. In my opinion 1:50 should be enough for daytrading and for some people this will surely be excessive. IMHO, reasonable enough. On the other hand, if support didn’t lie but I still won’t be able to trade the required volume in time, I won’t be much disappointed. AAFX has got no additional commissions apart from spreads. Spreads are nice here, about average for the industry. Executions do well so far, so even without these +35% I’d still have a feeling I’ve made a right choice of a brokerage. In fact, I worried a lot about the speed of executions. It turned to be fine, so AAFX looks like a nice choice for daytrading. They’ve got some limitations for EA trading, so I might change my mind if I switch to automaticv trading systems. So far so good.
