Guys, after half an hour disconnection, my Oanda Platform got connected at 12:25 GMT and I got stoped out at exactly the same time, I lost 30 pips but according to my default setting, which is 15pips,and I can remember exactly when I push the trade button, the spread is only 2, I should have been stoped out much much eallier. especially, acording to the so called trade history, I close the trade by myself!!!

I really can't stand this anymore, they trade us as a fool. I will never trade with oanda in the future.

they are market-makers, so forex is just an invisible market, when period of low liquidity like pre-announcement, they're prices are actually man-made, all bs. when enough people are betting in certain direction, they just tip it the other direction and bucketshop you around, or they can 'server problem' you. its just an excuse to screw your trades, intermittent connection etc.

no way around it, either dont play the news or dont play forex.

will keep note of that. I've been with oanda for almost 3 years now no problems. all market makers suck, but they are the best market maker.

personaly going to enter 4175 area ill keep entering up to 4255 with 4265 as a sl.. tp tbdl.. i should be ok unless equitys really take off.. if in profit at 3 hours before nfp i will probably exit and wait till after nfp to enter.. unless a few hundred pips up.. then ill lock in half..move sl to be + 100.......


already in
Hope it reach that level before nfp but I think it will after otherwise break down to 1.4027 to 1,3940 even 3800 to try go up again .Not trading any now though.

Oanda is complete bulls*it last two weeks. Server busy. No connection..
Maybe it is time to look for another broker..

You can contact Oanda and explain what happend. Maybe they will credit your account.

Strong dollar, weak dollar doesn't matter, not America's problem.

Strong dollar, cheaper oil, hurts middle east who has borrowed money against oil. Hurts Chinese exports to rest of world.

Weak dollar, means reserves of China and Middle East shrink, hurts middle east to pay back money borrowed in own currency for property development. US can export more. Debt can be repaid more easily

Dollar collapse means US can errode debt while others Wealth is worthless.

It is not a news trade. news of the eur minimun bid rate released at 7:45 am east time, i waited untill oanda spread backed to normal, then i traded at 7:59, which is almost 15 minutes away from "the news" but get disconnected after, untill 8:25 east time after tried over 20 times reconnection.
