Hi,

I understood the whole teaching, until the professor
after saying "Good Morning", he said: "today we will see... "

Tgs,

Hi guys. I've been hit by market I messed up everything on EURCHF, because I tought SNB is gonna defend swiss franc from further appreciation and my stop loss was trigered at 1.42 so I am minus 14% this year. Otherwise I am doing qute good, but still I am so bored during lectures so I go just for few hours on faculty. I passed all winter exams easily so I have plenty of time. I took a little break from forex to settle my mind, so I do lots of sports as always. But I figured it out whatever you want to take to the professional level, is the same concept, which I lack lol. Like in forex I would like to invest more risk free and longer terms, but it's very difficult. Short term methods don't fit my carachters as I can have to big balls so I take kamikaze risks. Otherwise I hope u are doing great, and I am really in big confusion. I go to faculty just to waste my time. I want to improve myself in trading not listening some boring theories about all subjects of economics. regards

I was there for 6years and it is useless now. But if i can recommend to you, pass the school. It is interesting, when you like it. I loved geology. But after the school i discovered, that jobs are not payed and "bussinessmans" are laughing at us, high schooled"fools", who work because they like it and they do it very cheaply.
I HAVE SAID NOT!!! I am not a slave, i am going to fight.
But it is not easy. Go on but slow down(many hours are required to be good). regards

Hi ALL,
Just to inform.
I am stopping electronic internet forex bucketshops trading for spot interbank instead.
This is because everytime the markets gets active. My platforms freezes up(esp OANDA) until run is over( which is like at least 30 to 50 pips).But prices are available in spot. I am incline to think that they have modules in their system that tracks customers blotters and work hostile against customers. Shameful scam!
Too many occurrences have convince me come to this conclusion. This cannot be co-incidental.
So i advise all, find true market place, this bucketshop thingy is pure scam. Trade exchange regulated markets or trade spot interbank. OTC buckets have all the hallmarks of SCAM.
You are not only disadvantaged spreads and slippage, you have to content with IT and computer systems manipulation.
When at interbank spot dealing, any broker who miss prices gets "stuffed" or they are "lined off" for months. The access risk (loss of market access) of the internet bucketbrokers' platform is totally hostile and unacceptable for me.

My account with the bucketshops is small as still in experimental stages as they are still high credit risk for me. Their platform protocol, i conclude , totally unacceptable for professional standards. Maybe their risk disclosure statement should state that trading with them, is not for ANYone. Or that only fools should "gamble" with them, as they have "means" to counter measure your profitability.

regards

PS: i was emailed that this is not so for everyone. This may be true, Only selectively for the profitable ones, i guess.

Sorry to hear of your problems. I have been trading on FXCM TS2 for several years now and have had only several problems like you mentioned (locked out for several minutes when the market is surging), and certainly none in the last few days/weeks. Good luck with your search for a solution and please keep us informed. Otherwise, hope you are well.

I am surprised you are still using the bucketshops. Unlikely OANDA select customers, IG and CMC does that.

I am well GEfx.
Just wanted to conclude my findings.

Had been having these problems i mentioned for some time already. Was thinking if I should shoutout the issue as the buckets are oblivious to it.
It is very frustrating that i have prices elsewhere , and have access problems to small positions with these bucket shop's IT issues. And because of margining , I am lapped with hedges elsewhere. These is causing me much nuisance and distractions from trades. and Not one but all these buckets display the same symptoms. So its gotta be universal for them, I guess. So it seems that when markets gets fast. Big Boys have prices and small boys go to the wolfs. To me is systemic disadvantage. So just wanted to let the small traders be aware of what they are up against. seems Multiple tiers of OTC markets, bottom of the food chain gets the stick.

Stay safe.
regards

A few years back FXCM was one of the worst, they actually shut their platform down during high volatility, they would announce in advance of important news announcements to expect execution delays...... mumble, left them and never looked back.

Oanda has been very reliable, with exception of spreads, until late..

@FTI, they don't target as their forum boards are over run with complaints as of late on this matter, they did a server maintenance a few weeks back and it seemed to be better, but yesterday I did notice some periods of delay, was out all last week so I can comment about that period of time.

fti, I have come across a broker that gives the option of auto-execution. Have you researched that?
