I use OANDA - my stop was just taken out by a spike...but it did not show up on my FIBO platform is there any course of action that I can take?
Probably not, Oanda has FD me twice already THIS YEAR! One time I moved my SL up (it reflected on my chart) but their internal system did not register it, price hit my original point and kicked me out of an other wise profitable trade.

Another time my order was placed at one rate, filled at another (10 pips away) and this was not during news or any other bs, but simply a lag issue with their internal system. Again, nothing I could do about it.

Then money should be put into it. And not corporate money where it's nothing but an excuse to put Coke vending machines and a Pizza Hut in the cafeteria. But that can be a whole other debate.
money is not the issue. as a young "american" (yeah right) who has been 2 different middle schools and 3 high schools and community college and state university (big list right)...i can tell you the problem was never the money. the problem is culture...the american way of life. all this preaching (education, stay off weed, get good grades, stay out of trouble, etcetera)..its all bullshit. It is just as much preaching as the bs congress feeds us every day. Kids (in general) dont care about school, all they want it is the hot girlfriend, to hang with the cool guys. Doing hw is lame...ditching class is cool. The list is so long its not even funny. Not only that, this whole problem starts at home with the parents. My parents were extremely strict when i was in romania (europe in general)...i didnt get good grades i would get a whoopin. I come to the states...first few years I get A's...yet over time when they couldnt whoop me anymore i stopped doin my hw and listening to parents and I barely pulled off C's. I will say this though..I went to an 80% asian high school (right in the middle of sillicon valley) where most kids had rich parents and competition was high....everyone thought hard for them A's. That just goes to show you what european/asian culture is about as compared to American culture in general

Ok, just talked to OANDA - the technical team is working on it, they will restore any positions that where taken out of the market as well as all the original parameters that where set.

They say it should be fine in a half hour...pretty good - I've always had good responses from OANDA, I am glade they are coming through.

You are right on the mark here... Our culture has unwoven the fabric of the true nature of humanity. We feed our children false history, fake science and kindergarten mathematics all the way through highschool, its no wonder that most students ABHOR school, because their souls know its missing something.

America is going to have a fricken wake up call here real soon and it's not going to be pretty. There is NO AMOUNT of talk that can prevent our monetary system from collapsing... it is INEVITABLE. We are in a period of hyper inflation, perpetual debt, and now we are GIVING our institutions to the same bastards that brought us the instruments of disaster.

Forgive me, but what a bunch of IGNORANT folks us Americans are...

Peace

And thats where your wrong sir.

I work for my self and I work hard and I'm doing ok. I don't wait for someone to tell me what to do.

Having said that it is leadership ,STRONG ledership, that has ALWAYS guided people to a strong country, a strong work effic, a strong moral foundation.

It is similar to a youg kid growing up with a strong mentor....Everyone needs a mentor including you.....Warren buffet for an example...So yes many people including me see Pres O as a stong mentor....NOT a hand out or an easy fix...

Trust me if the old guy got in we would not have this kind of stong leadership

There in lies your problem, you are depending on one man...I depend on the country as a whole. The fix will come from 300 million of us...

Thanks for the info. I look away for one second and BAM I'm out -50. It's like finally getting to talk to the hot chick at the bar and suddenly realizing you stepped in dogsh!t and it's just a matter of time before the smell finds her nostrils.

You can not discount the importance of one man, especially the U. S. President. Under the last one (who I think should be tried for treason, if not at least dereliction of duty) federal agencies and regulatory agencies were "asleep" at the least, corrupt at the most. One man can allow a state of affairs where all the wealth of those 300 million you speak of gets funneled into the pockets of a relative few, while the country goes down the tubes.

Without a moral and competant LEADER IN THE WHITE HOUSE, we 300 million would continue to be taken for a ride to the poor house.

There's a huge difference between a mentor, and our president. They're not even comparable.

I am not discounting the IMPORTANCE of one man, just the false sense of security ONE man can give. I hear what your saying Joker, I too am in business for myself and I am 26 years old - I learn what NOT to do and what I DIDN"T want...

Understand, I believe strong mentorship is a necessity that is not being supplied to our youth, but I don't think that ONE man can be the answer. He may offer the idea, but the collective will refine it and make it work...it is with the many that we are strong, not the few.
