Not sure if you know that dow futures were down 50 points this morning...

Dow is up minimal, anyways today is friday and there will only be selling, Folks want to end the month in positive next week not this one...

But again who knows. I am saying it from my experience only. News/fed can change it easy.

Just looking at my statements it onyl says I took one of the trades. WTF?

Seriously considering trying to get back onto ODLmarkets. They are very good.

I had two disppearing trades on IG last night, and they discredited me 45pips when my loss should have been 30.

Furthermore after they reset their end both trades were still open??!?! STopping me out again but taking profit on euro. Friggin crazy, they still havent replied to my mail.
They'll sort it eventually. In my experience their CS can be a bit slow but sound in the end (so far).

I'm keeping an eye on things but not desperate to be in anything the rest of day.

I think we could see a big move down when eur/usd tops, it is already at 4250 could peak to 4290 and after a peak it will go down probably, i guess gbp could follow only in faster pace!
good call mate - i'm already short EU @ 4250 sl 4268 1st tp 4191....

Well the IG platform was screwy with me from about 8pm last night if that's any help (depending on when your trades went awol).

I've had a look at ODL SB but couldn't see much info on their spreads.

Grea thing is their requotes. During the news they requote you then you have a stuck price, so ask for a requote, news shoots price, go long or short. Instant 10-30 pips.

I got banned when they requoted me 0/0 for USDCAD and I bought it. I tried to withdraw £56000 from them lol.

They asked me back a month or so ago with their ipod offer, im not sure if they remembered who i was to be frank.

ROFL. You can dine out on that for years!

Spread is similar to IG then? I may look into them as a second account but generally happy with IG for now (free ipod sounds nice though, mine died!)

When I started out it was one of the ways I built my account. £4-8 a tick on requotes, 10-60pip moves. NFP is fun with it, mind you have to know what your doing. IE. news spikes one way then spikes the other. Choose the right side...

Similary sometimes their prices stopped.

Yeah their spreads are similar, but their ticker isn't as jolty as I recall. Only roundnumbers and half round.
