Yes I was away from the computer and when I came back there was a 12 pip gap. It happens every time at news time, but this looks the worst. Either their server can’t handle news times or they deliberately stop the feed until they know what’s happening.

Mostly between instantaneous and a second, the first trade is usually slower. Occasionally when there is very little volume it can get down to 3 or 4 seconds. Also some times when reaction is slow, I notice I’ve been connected to DC1 or DC5, this happens about once a day. So if you’re having problems check to see if you are on the right DC for you.

Hi Guys,

In response to the comments about the freezing of charts/prices earlier, unfortunately there was what appears to be an ISP problem which interrupted the connection between our feed provider and the trading server. Within a few minutes one of the backup feeds had kicked in, and the connection to our main price feed has since started up again.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but as I'm sure you can understand, these kind of things are out of our control, and we can only have backups in place to limit the impact. For your information, we actually have 5 backup feeds in place, meaning that you should always be able to get prices. Keep in mind, as with all MT4 providers that if a price feed loses connection, there is a timeout to give it a chance to immediately re-connect and once that period (usually 90 seconds) is complete, the backup kicks in.

I hope that explains things for you all.

Thanks,
Chris

Hello Chris

How is the search for an oil feed provider?
Hi Golum,

We have actually found what seems to be a suitable feed for oil after a lot of searching. However, this will not be put onto MT4, at least just yet. It will initially go online once MT5 is available and we will then look at converting it. Obviously Meta5 has market depth and DMA functionality, so we will be finding out more information from the feed provider to what extent this will be available. Regardless of this, I am sure it will compare favourably to some of the market made oil CFDs currently available.

Cheers,
Chris

Did GoMarkets discuss another persons account with you?
Hi,

Of course we do not discuss another persons account, that would ben unethical, against ASIC regulation and privacy policy. the person in question would just be generalising. In addition to this we still do not know who the client is who is asking about his late deposit of funds as he has not yet PM'd his account details but we hope his funds have now been deposited or sent back to his bank if the bank details he sent to were incorrect.

Cheers

Would you mind listing the DC's and their locations (I travel a fair bit and want to know where your servers are located?)

Thanks in anticipation

Good evening Chris,
I thought brokers would love scalpers (as they are the ones who have the most trades so in return yous make the most commission out of them), but I must be mistaken as the slippge on GOs platform is just not on... It seems as more you make the worst GOs platform gets...
Think its time to go find a new 500:1 broker! but thanks for the 100% increase in my trading account balance any way.
