Not sure if anyone can answer this question for me, but I'm currently trading @ FXsolutions. Their trading closed today @ 12:00 PM EST and before market close, I held a long position which was close to liquidation - only had about $150 to hold that position. The rates froze at 12:00 and their platform shut down for the christmas weekend;however, a few minutes after 12;00 the rates dropped even more which would have liquidated my position. Now the rates rebounded and is back at a price where I'm in the green - my question is when the platform reopens on Friday, will my account be liquidated or will the price action just gap to where it is?

My guess is.. your money's gone, but to be sure, pick up the phone and dial their toll free Number. They can answer your question.

Stop being greedy
Stop being greedy
"My pip hand is strong"

whats the point of telling every1 dont be greedy and doing what u did? ..i say u took a gamble

from what i know...if u left the position open and the market gaps over yur SL then yur stop wont be triggered..i personally see cable sinking..3 bearish dailly bars and the weekly was bearish as well...u will be lucky if yur stop gets hit ..i hope it doesnt gap below it cause this will mean the stop wont get triggered....

i would phone them to get a better picture.....have a great christmas and try not to do what u did again, its just not worth while

I got FX Solutions also, and have not left positions open when they closed since Sept, right now price is locked in @4744, but like Navin talks about the gaps, I'm not sure how it will affect your position come Friday at 8:00am est when they re-open.

I do notice sometimes that right before they open you can see price adjustments.

I hope you didn't get a margin call....but we've all done it, mine just happens to be when the market is moving!!!

Hope you do get out, so go ahead and enjoy Christmas because you can't do anything until Friday.

Happy Holidays...

HOLLA

Happy mid winter festivities !

My son has a business in Tenerife - if you are American, it's an island in the Atlantic just West of Africa, which itself is East of the U.S. I explain this because an American girl once stopped me in York and asked me if Norway was in the north of england - and when I opened my bank account here in Washington State, the lady asked me where I learned English. When I told her 'England' she said 'oh, do they speak English there ' ?

My son's business depends on the ability of British tourists to change their GBP to Euros at a reasonable rate

With parity fast approaching, he is as stuffed as a christmas turkey and such tourists as there are, cannot afford to spend on anything other than necessities such as beer and chips (steak fries). Even the Thai 'massage' girls and cocaine dealers are bored.

2009 should be fascinating for us forexers as the economies decide whether the great slump is still an option. Once the premium for 'safest currency' leaves the USD, we could see a BIG retreat. It wont be like throwing a switch though because conflicting data will arise and they will all be rushing back and forth

Lots of trading opportunities based on maths (math) rather than trends...

I reckon 7500 on the Dow will appear at some point and my only conviction is on oil shares where BP are paying me 8% dividend to wait and see

ok that's my 'old mother shipton' predictions done, so now it's either watch 'prancer' or .......

Thank you for posting your charts!

Unfortunately, your charts do not show the activity during the time your broker was closed for the holiday. I saw prices today during the US Session from cnnmoney.com and here's what they were: 10:00est 1.4648, 2:00est 1.5200

Trade well everyone!
