FXCM problems on DEMO

Hello,

I have a Trade open i have been wanting to close since this morning.

It was only up 10 pips when i first wanted to close, now up 48 pips, which is good, but it still wont close - Any Ideas?

If I was you, I would try completly closing down the platform and never open it up again. Go find a company that is reliable and dependable as if you continue playing with FXCM, you will probably be disappointed.

I throw on nonsense directional trades on the FXCM demo fairly frequently. Helps pass the time. Anyway, I opened and closed probably 6 trades today, so the problem is more then likley on your end.

I won't argue that point with Stan... but you can put a tight limit or stop order on the position and it'll take it out; which is about the only way to get out of a trade with them.

call them FXCM is changing some things over and some of the demos just arent working correctly they can get you a new username and password

Your demo account is likely that new dealer direct crap, with a real account I just couldn't get in or out, it's basically rejected you as the price changed and it'll sit there for hours until it'll eventually say, order failed.


E-mail them, or open a fixed Spread Demo account, instant in and out all day long today well pretty much instant, failed try again if the price does move atleast.

Best thing to do is just go somewhere where there is no problems !!! FXCM is a lot of crap ! Just out to get your money... Read the FXCM thread... it's all there !!!

Will do, i just find the actual platform really layed out for me

I will look elsewhere that caters for the smaller capital traders
