That can happen with any broker. Had it happen wit FXOpen, Alpari UK and FXSol requotes, trade context is busy, invalid prices.
All brokers data feeds could be better a fact of automated trading.

And again if youre having problems like that switch brokers.

Hi Dil

Great trade, but just curious, did you had a EA or a robot to automate your trade? Otherwise, how is it possible that you can monitor your many trades at 1 go? Can see from your trade history that you are a scalper taking profit as low as 1 pip.

Thanks.

What's up Randy. Hello all. So far price has been jumping around pretty good for this time and also considering in between big USD news, but it seems likes it's starting to settle down.

I'm going to play it down the line in my chart. PA may possibly crawl into the wedge at the bottom where it may consolidate some and then explode out at about the time the news hits. Thats how I'm going to play it at least...

If I may offer an opinion...I'm not an expert trader yet, but based on my observations and what I've learned, what happened with you is a case of slippage.

Slippage occurs when there's no one available to take the trade against you, and so you get filled as soon as someone is available...sometimes it'll be a few pips away from your desired price, or in extreme cases like yours, 40 pips away. Since you were selling, no one was buying (at that precise moment), so your broker filled you when a buyer was available.

Slippage sucks...but it's a reality if you're trading the news (immediately after the release). My broker doesn't allow for slippage, instead they'll requote you if no one is around to take the trade against you. You're given a few seconds to decide whether it's something you want, or not. You have the choice to decide, and I think that's much fairer than being forced into a trade at a horribly undesirable price.

I've heard some people say that brokers should take the trade against you if no one else is available, but I don't know if that's a requirement on their part. Probably not.

Good luck...I hope you make your money back tonight, or at the very least maybe your broker can show some sympathy for your dilemma and give you some money back. I wouldn't bank on it though...especially not if you're planning on shouting at them!

Do look into switching brokers...especially if you're planning on continuing with the newstrading, (which I would advise against until you've learned the ropes). I don't do it at all.

pretty wild stuff there
i see a couple of trades open ( aud/usd and eur/jpy ) at a little after 10 pm and then after more than 9 hours they get closed with one pip gain ?

you should make a video of you dancing with the wolves between all your computers and monitors - opening and closing trades ...

i don't understand how you manage not to get bitten even one time ?

I fancy the big news event to be a no-show, perhaps the market has already priced in whats to come. (Not to say Im long euros) just a consideration... perhaps we'll just have more of the same...i.e a prolonged and dragged out case of USD strength.

Maybe a spike here or there to take out stops.

I just hate following the common consensus, everyone seems to be salivating over Friday.

Thanks for compliment. Today looked like it was a pretty volatile day when looking back at the chart. I didn't really get to experience it because I was out on the road all day. Turned out to be a perfect day to be away. I got home only to see the end results.

Made some plans today to go to south beach on friday, so I will be sure to get some photos of all the craziness going on and post some on here for you fellas.

Cheers!
