to be honest, I have not experienced slippage on any MT4 demo brokers only, yet to choose a reputable live one for news events. My experience with GFT gives bad memories that's all, they used to hang on to trades until you are at a loss, or fill you at the peak....unjustified.

That is my experience exactly with GFT. Last news trade indicated a SELL order and it was not filled until the price had dropped 22 pips. The price never dropped any lower and, in fact, was retracing by the time the fill happened.

I used to think this way, please follow this link, I think it will change your attitude towards brokers:

Hi Burger,

I had a [Invalid S/L or T/P] problem two days in a row. Yesterday on the EURCAD, today on the USDCAD. I set my settings and loaded the script. It looks fine on my chart. The price wasn't fluctuating during the time the chages were supposed to happen. My info is below. What could be going wrong? I have no problems with the GBPUSD.
This happened again to me on the USDCAD today. Any suggestions from anyone? Could it be broker specific? What brokers are people having no issues with for the CAD releases?

Rather than mention the name of this broker I would like to survey the range of spreads at news time, from various brokers. Did you happen to see your broker spread at the time of news realease. I understand that they all rely on interbank feeds, so maybe we can see which brokers are just plain bankrupt when we all hit the triggers simultaneously ? just a thought....

None of the retail brokers have real interbank feeds. They have now removed these words 'interbank feed' from their website since they have been spanked by the NFA for misleading advertising.

Hi coolhell,

When there is import canadian news I trade it. But most of the times I got a bad fill on the USDCAD. So I got today: A stop sell order at 1.1024 got filled at 1.1007..

In your reply you advise FerruFX to trade EURCAD because it moves better. My broker is GFT and the spread on EURCAD 8 pips. So I was wondering you also get better fills on EURCAD, or are just the moves better?
My experience with gft is that the fills on GBPUSD & EURUSD are better than on the USDCAD. What are your experiences with your broker?
