I wanted people's thoughts on whether something like this is legal.
I was already in a position short EURAUD September 18th at 13:45 just 15 mins before the FOMC announcement. My Stop Loss was at 1.4311 and within 2 mins after the FOMC announcement my SL got triggered at 1.4321. The highest price printed(according to their chart and others) at the time of the announcement was around 1.4290.
How can my broker execute a SL 30 pips away from the highest price printed on the charts? is this normal?
