No I placed the order about 3 minutes before the news came out and before new candle opened! The companies name is Teletrade. Can you give me any advise what to do...? I have been trading for week and that really put me down...!!!

wow gatorinla you think it will go that far i doubt it very much but 1.3737 is on my cards for sure . no way i ll go for 1.04
Last time it was at 1.04 was in the early part of 2003. It's a far way to go from now. Going off technicals alone I can't say how probable it seems. A move to there within the next year would also be shaped by world events/fundamentals.

well the order should have become active 15 pips under the price that was at that moment when I placed it! So when the price started falling the order should have opened at 0.8804 instead it opened at 0.8777...!!! I say what the f**k...???

1 of 2 things happened. You had an insane ammount of slippage or the pip spread went up to an insane ammount of pips at the time it got filled, or a combination of the 2. either way it was because of the news release.
You should look into a different broker, I would suggest fxcm as I never have any problems with them personally

I find your analysis quite interesting and read your posts with a keen eye. You don't post rambling BS as some others whose names I won't mention. I have been following the posts of a few people here that seem to know what they are doing and what they are talking about. I have learned a lot from you all and appreciate your willingness to share with us newer folks. I have a system and a plan I follow but I greatly appreciate the input of others as there is always something to learn from the insight of others.

May the pips be with you!

You should call them and ask for an explanation. If they don't help you to your satisfaction, tell them you want to close the account right on the spot cause you're going to another broker.
