FXSol Holiday Trading Hours

I see that FX Solutions will suspend trading for the holiday on Monday at 11:00am. Since Forex is a global market there will still be trading in every other country, however thin it may be. Does FX Solutions close trading for their customers in other countries as well? I don't remember them ever closing trading for any other countries' holidays. Do all FX brokers do this? I just can't see how they can subject customers' accounts to price movement without allowing us the ability to react to it. Seems kind of like going down the highway and having your steering and brakes go out.

Anybody know if the stops/limits/entries will be executed if prices hit them, or will it be like an opening gap where you get filled at whatever the price is when trading resumes?

Hi,

Thanks for letting us know as I use FXSol. I thought brokers opened 24/5 except for Xmas.

Anyone else's brokers closed on 4th July?

How can they justify closing trading for their customers when the market is open and prices are moving? Does this happen to any traders outside of the US also?

I'm in the UK so it happens to everyone I guess. Their live customer support was not operational either.

Didn't loose any money since I was trading the euro/usd, no volatility. I'm sure if I had been holding the same position on GBP/USD it would have wiped out my account.
