Regarding scalping and hedging, I boiled it down to 2 Swiss brokers, Dukascopy and AC-Markets. As I did not have the required $50,000 capital at the time, I had to forget Dukascopy. With AC-Markets, execution remains fast when you scalp, also important is that stop orders like trailing ones can be set as close as double the pip spread.
When doing my due diligence bad things I remember are that HY Markets only had a 3 click execution, that killed the scalping off, MIG told me outright it was forbidden to scalp and they would only allow you to use trailing stops with a minimum profit of 15 pips. GFT charge a "fine" for 60 days inactivity, Dukascopy said that if you have 500 $ and you do not trade and do not add money then they have rights to close your account. Forex.com said "no" to scalping.
For someone starting, FXSol looks not bad, they allow scalping (No hedging...US based) only $250 to open and they offer a choice of 5 different leverage!
For those interested in Metatrader, AC-Markets is about to launch their version of the MT4.
