I am new to them.
they told me i can only withdraw the amount to credit card if i fund it by credit card.

So after i withdraw to my credit card, how can i transfer the money to my saving account or cash without incurring the cash advance fee?

TIA

It's true... U can withdraw it by ur deposit method... If u transfer by credit card I think there will be a cash advance charges incurred...
What u can do is once the fund is back to your card, make a call to the bank and request for a cheque for the excess amount..
Do note that for oanda funding by credit card you will be charged for for 1% dcc charge

Oanda's card processor is in US, so 0.8% cross border fee incurred for all banks except OCBC and some banks.

Withdrawal by credit card up to 125% of your deposit amount. The rest of your profits should be wired out or via bank transfer.

Can I also ask, how to always have your limit orders filled? Mine seems to always miss being filled

If you want a guaranteed fill, you have to cross the spread, it's as simple as that. If you try to work an order and get filled slightly better, you're running the risk of not getting filled.

You can either capture the spread or get a guaranteed fill; you can't have both.

Thanks master!! Oanda spread is crazy. It goes up to 5 pips at times. That’s quite a big risk to take.. :/
