I have been trading using Gold account of the broker. This account is most suitable for me as it gives me high leverage up to 1:1000 and spreads that are tight. A dedicated account manager is available 24/5, which is very handy when I have a quesion to resolve.
Often I get spreads that are as low as 0.7-0.8 pips on some fx pairs.
Also, economic calendar is very relevant
