Did everyones chart have a huge spike on the majors inbetween 3:00 and 4:00 tonight? Did anyones stops or tp s get executed because of it? Im guessing it was an eronious bad quote. But heres my real question. Have anyone noticed especially on the 1 miute chart that when a huge spike is recorded but it actually doesnt go that far , just stays where it is, that eventually sooner than later it actually goes in that direction? Ive noticed this with the E signal feed myself. And does anyone play this kind of stuff
GBP almost spiked 100 pips but im sure it wasnt real

Yea, must've just been bad data. I don't have that spike on any of my charts.

No spike here. But I have to say I hate when the broker does that - it messes your charts, respectively your studies.

This can be a real pain so I go into the History Centre and edit the data because it obviously is a mistake.
It can happen but is rare.

I didn't get one on the cable. But on my Oanda account, I have a 40 pip spike in the euro/usd. Hit my target sooner than I expected. So no complaint here.

I saw that spike, it went by so fast you could have missed it. I've seen that once before I and yes I believe the price ended up going that way, Hmm

I got a huge spike on USD/JPY 4hour chart on 1/19/07. How do I fix it and make it permanent? I've went to tools, history center then the 4hour chart and manually changed the high and low but it won't stay. Please help. Thanks in advance. Holler2me
