Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? These were from my live account on FXDD. I checked a demo account on another broker's site and I did not see anything out of the ordinary.

Man, talk about the most significant STOP HUNT ever!!!

These were both demo accounts right? I have never seen this anomaly in a live account, but have seen it quite commonly in a demo. Last time it happened to me I called my broker and they assured me that it would not be in the live feed. also, if this type of anomaly happened in a live account, my broker assured me I would not be held accountable on the trade from it...


It really is quite common. Take a look at the daily chart for USDCAD from SBFX and you will see what I mean...

Scott,

This data was from a Live Account on FXDD. My demo account on FXDD had the same crazy candles. However, my demo account on FXCM didn't show this erratic behavior.

Hmmm....

I wasn't trading this pair, so I had no immediate intention of contacting the Broker. But what if it had been a pair I was trading? I will contact the vendor to get a response, this scares me.

Arthur 1,

Look at a 1minute chart and see if yours shows the same. It looks like yours is a 5min chart.
