Yeah 2nd lot was stopped out at b/e (should have taken profit when it was at 1.35ish but was greedy..). 1st lot only got 40 pips.

Not unhappy coz of that V. Never been one to blame the broker but FXCM AT today was really fishy. Bought at market but order didn't fill. Filled 3 hours later at the price that was there 3 hours earlier. Very buggy. Called them but got the run around. Decided to leave it at that coz it was only a small sized lot. They's been real good so far with tight spreads. From their side they said it was my internet connection??...
Hey, BE trades are always good in my book. I took a bit of a hit on the euro long late last week. I can't get them all, I guess It was a risky long and I new it though so. -50 pips, not really bad considering how far it has sank thus far. I plan on getting them back real soon here though.

I have been pretty happy with Alpari as my broker. When market volatility gets a bit extreme, the requotes can get annoying really fast... but more often then not I am filling orders during Asia or through pending orders, so it's not really all that big of a deal to me. Other then that, I haven't seen any fowl games with them. Targets filled just the same as stops. May be a good one to add to your list to research at least.

Good luck!

But to get an answer, you need to tell more about the idea why you want to do that. You want to go long on the usdx now to hedge an EU long?

Whatcha reckon about cable, filled my stop @5910, sl 5950 if the bugger knocks that one out I'll never trade again
4 pairs at support bro your call, she just looks full of lead to me, time will tell
maybe if others start breaking present support, be ok, my entry just below gap fill, milking, not much underneath at the mo, could be just greedy

Once again alot of people are trying to pick the bottom.

Euro has been VERY short since the open, let the currency tell you when it wants to reverse, stop guessing.
Euro has been very short since early last week. lol.

I know my order got whipsawed, usually don't use stop orders very often for that reason. We needed H1 close below 5910 but didn't get it.

Roll a Dice = even = Long, Odd = short.

I actually wrote an EA to do this one time... always in an order, as soon as order was entered 10 pip tp, 10 pip stop.

House edge (spread) ended up eating away at the balance

Accuracy was right around 50%. Go figure. lol

As soon as I did a 12 point target, 10 stop... accuracy went down to about 45%

Bit late to do so. Better use stoploss or be more patient. I know that is very hard...
