It takes 2 days to get USD in and out of my trading account. I'm not sure how long 'real' currency exchanges take, but I bet it isn't immediate.


Microseconds. It's called FOREX.


Taking dollars out of an account != exiting a trade. It takes one to two days to get USD out of an OANDA account (source:http://fxtrade.oanda.com/help/how-to-withdraw-funds). So 3 days isn't terrible.


You're right I totally misunderstood, my bad.


You are comparing apples with oranges.
