Disliked{quote} That is a story I have heard with about 5 different brokers so far in the past week - very bad story to hear! This is what apparently happened at all the brokers... 1 - SNB announced the peg was removed and price starts massive move that instant 2 - Price starts falling through the floor 3 - Stops trigger on broker servers and close orders get pushed to Liquidity pools (like Integral) 4 - Banks stop providing prices, so a "last price" is returned and then no more pricing is offered 5 - Eventually the banks start offering prices again, which...Ignored
My point also. If my stop wasn't triggered, why would the trade be closed and I received a statement stating the settlements? I am guessing that they are rewriting history from the events that actually happened. How great it must be to be able to pick and choose where orders get filled or don't get filled. This obviously is not the market at work, it's books and data feeds manipulated by all involved. There is no true exchange and no orders are passed through anywhere...imho.
The only way to participate in a true market is to change vehicles where liquidity and volume can truly be measured.
