Are You Behind a Firewall

Firewall Instructions

If you immediately receive an error message when you try to log in, it may be necessary to configure your firewall. Please click on your firewall package for instructions:

	Norton Internet Security/Personal Firewall
	ZoneAlarm
	McAfee Internet Security/Personal Firewall
	I'm not sure what firewall I have…

If you need help configuring your firewall, please visit the Support Center for instructions.

Apple User? Download Restrictions

Java Trading Station

If you trade on a Macintosh/Apple or have other firewall or download restrictions, you may want to try FXCM’s Java Platform. Please note that this is a beta version and FXCM Micro does not support this platform. Please use the PC platform when possible to ensure a higher level of platform reliability and speed.

Is Your Computer on a Wireless Connection?

FXCM Micro Trading Station for Windows | ZIP file (12MB)

Wireless internet connections do not provide a consistent, uninterrupted flow of data between your professional FXCM Micro Trading Station and our Trading Desk. A physical internet connection is highly recommended.

If you are using such an unstable connection, you may have trouble downloading the FXCM Micro Trading Station. If you have no alternative to wireless, you may want to try the zip file instead.

Is Your Computer on a Dial-up Connection?

FXCM Micro Trading Station for Windows Standalone | Self-extracting EXE file (9.71MB)

If you are on a dial-up connection, the FXCM Micro Trading Station may be too large to download at once. You may want to try downloading the software in parts. First, download each of the links below into the same folder on your computer. Once you have finished, click on “Start Installation” to complete the process. If you are using the standalone option to download the FXCM Micro Trading Station, you will also need to download the charts.
