Default other aspects to take into account

as you said spreads are an important factor in the selection of one trading-platform or broker BUT this is not the only important thing to take into account...

also important are: overnight interest cost (a.k.a. cost of carry) applied to the different pairs, pip-value of currency contracts (important when your broker offer forex trading in lots or predefined contracts) and if there are other commissions that apply (mantainance, round-turn, etc.).
