This has happened a few time for me with Oanda. It's very disappointing. With the way GBPJPY is moving today, it would be nice to put some trades in. I'm afraid this one is the last straw. I'm going to start looking for another broker, hopefully a reliable one exists.

I remember there was once a thread where a guy was complaining cause his demo acct "ripped him off" - It was classic.
In trading, there is no bullshit. You either make money or you don't.

Hi there,

Just a quick question...I'm opening an account with Oanda and I've noticed that there's a section where they ask You what's your "estimated annual income" and your "net worth". Is this for statistical purposes only or is there a chance that your application can be rejected if they consider that Your financial profile doesn't meet certain criteria?

thanks!

Unless your situation is extremely out of the ordinary ( $15,000 annual income; $300,000 opening deposit into account; ) you shouldn't have any worries. Most financial companies include these questions to make sure your investment profile somewhat aligns with trading currencies.

So you think the most important thing is that your initial deposit doesn't exceed your annual income/net worth, regardless of what's your annual income/net?

it's not about how much $ you have, it's about the relation between what you have and what you are risking for trading? Is that what you mean?

The EUR/USD spreads at Oanda ahve been .9 pip for the last several days.....
of course the FOMC thing today raised them to 2 pip which was the highest I saw today,...might have been a little higher when I was'nt looking
I like seeing these tight spreads lately.

Okay. The platform is not freezing.... You can add orders, execute orders, trades whatever even in the midst of very heavy price movements (80 pips in 15 seconds like in the last NFP) BUT the spread jumps from 2.5 pips to 20-30 or more.... CAN YOU HANDLE THAT???

Not more than 20 in the cable, that's for sure. During the last NFP the spread was up to 15, which is very, very fair.

Felix is talking about "after spike" trading which is his new kick.
