Are you talking about the long? If so, yup, its probably because of the news. Anyway, is it me, or is the original metatrader not connecting to the server as well as the interbank fx wednesday's feed just disappeared? ):

I havent been able to connect to metatrader for 12 hours now. And interbank suddenly disconnects and reconnects, and now theres a huge gap but the feed is continuing now, leaving a gap of almost 12 hours

About that long ago, I noticed one of my two metatrader demo feeds wasn't feeding (I installed on desktop and laptop and got 2 different feeds). The dead one was Alpari something or other...so I re-installed another meta trader from FXDD in new york (did a google for meta trader demo) and I was back online.

I've had this happen with that feed before so I was determined to do something about it this time but if it keeps happening I'll give up eventually. At least I remembered to back up the templates and indicators before I purged and reinstalled.

This Interbank demo Im testing the Daily trade on is missing data as well, I had candles up to the 0500 candle when I went to bed and now those are gone as also, it really sucks if your trading and using fibs its kinda hard to draw them when the data isnt there, at least the live platform still has the data.

Heh yup, i was doing it all the way as well, until it suddenly decided that they wanted to delete the data. How much does it require to open a live account? The live feeds seldom go dead, or do they?

Over the past few months I havnt seen any problems with the Interbank Live account.I dont trade the Interbank live much anymore I use my FXCM account mostly for live trading, wishing they would get going with the change over to MT4 platform.

I have had the same problems with IBFX demo's, you have missing bars and have to refresh the chart. Its very frusterating when you are trying to test an EA or run fibs.

I am surprised that you use FXCM as your broker, they are the biggest crooks in the business, there are much better brokers out there than FXCM.

Lately I havnt had any problems with FXCM, I am looking into moving this account to a broker ouside the US. I have been following with a demo from SAXO and they seem to be doing fine as far as order execution and correct chart prices. They are also open during the hours the US brokers are closed and one of the reasons I am looking into moving.

Along with the new demo feed from FXDD that worked last night, my laptop feed is from ODLsecurities apparently. Both of those had no issues (this time?) if anyone wants to consider trying those until they prove flakey too.

Very strange. I've been using the Alpari demo for several months. I didn't have any issues with it last night or yesterday.

Maybe there's different arteries into the feed and some of them had complications.

It appears as if its only on the 1 hour chart that has the missing data, Im guessing it was a server problem but has been fixed. Every once in a while there will be problems like this. Not much we can do if its a problem with connections , if its their server problems and it costs you real money..thats when it becomes a problem.

Thexder: I have been in the forex business for over 7 yrs now, and every post/comment & horror stories that I have read about FXCM over the yrs, has been totally negative. They artificially spike prices, trade against you, they will take trades back.

I know this trader, who was a newbie, and took a $800.00 account up to $17,000.00 in a few weeks, and FXCM proceeded to not give her any of the profits, they said that she was manipulating prices, and or scalping.

ODL is a very good broker, and there is a new one called Trade View, they are part of the Rosenthal Collins group, which is a huge Futures broker who opened up a Forex division finally.

Tell me about it. Forex.com had a major platform outage this morning that lasted for hours. Before it went out, I was having trouble setting the limits on open orders. It would say the order failed, but sometimes after about 5 minutes, the limit would show up. I had an open EUR/USD long trade and was getting the order failed message when trying to put the limit on. I then tried to open a separate sell limit at my target price and that failed. Well, the original limit order showed up, then as the price was hitting the target, the separate sell limit also showed up. My long position got closed and a short order was immediately opened. Then their platforms all went down and I could not close the short. I finally had to call their trading desk to close that position. Luckily, the EUR had gone down a bit and I made 5 pips of profit on the trade. It could have been disastrous.
