WOW WW WOW, dramatic fall on Ushchf! I bet no bear who profited from Eurchf exists here, only hedge funds did, all bears here were talkers, no guts no reality of shorts!

Worst that Eurusd didn't benefit from this!, when usdchf free falling 0.70 again?!

All this from SNB" we will take any measure to secure the floor",and so they backstabbed us.The only fortunate for me,is i didnt put on new trades the last days.I was planning investing 2k on the pair on another broker.So happy ididnt. I had one huge loss,and its bitter to think i didnt close it over a year ago.Opened at 1.24+ Well,onward we go.

lol, GBPCHF is the best {image}

No sheet

Anyone short on GBPCHF will be loving it if they had no TP set. If they had a small TP set they will be crying.

Just curious, does anyone have their stops not honered by their brokers?
I'm with Alpari, I'm awaiting for their IT team (WOnt be till the end of the day) had one SELL STOP order on USDCHF which the TP was hit, my platform has stated I made negative loss on this trade but it also saying it hit my TP so I should have made profit .

Also I had one BUY LIMIT on EURCHF with a stop at 1.1974 but they haven't full filled this SL so its given me a ridicolous value in pounds as to what this trade closed at

Then! I had a SELL STOP on EURCHF at 1.19867 with no TP or SL my broker quoted me over the phone a closing price of this trade at 1.0 but the price in my platform is showing I madea few hundred pounds when checking with the brokers calculator was a heck of alot more than that?

So I will wait and see if they will fullfill my stops

i had a long aud/chf position. My stop was honored but had a slippage of 43 pips from where I put my stop. I'm glad even with the slippage or else my account would had gotten wiped out just from that position alone.... WOW!!!!

First and foremost my thoughts goes to all bulls who anticipated this day to be more or less like any other, I really feel sorry about you right now.

Anyway 240 followers online, any eurchf bull who are willing to report on their experience regarding their stops? Where they completely invalid? Accounts in negative equity?

Swiss NB worse than Russia CB. Ruble hadn't crash in 5 minute time as CHF had strengthened!!

Was clear they were intervening from usdchf and eurusd moves but expected to see spike green as an ending not this!!

if they had a large position and no SL, then yes they will have negative equity. They are totally screwed, I'm pretty sure this move also hurts brokers if many of their clients held onto CHF positions. This move had created much more losses than any gains if you ask me.

I agree, this is outrageous. Really sorry for those people who are caught in the losses in CHF pairs. All their accounts got wiped out in 5 minutes which is total BS. I have never seen this either like EVER...

I just entered a short on eurchf... Now I have no idea if the floor will break, so my only goal is to get my stop to break even. Stop is at 1.21. Seems like a suicide mission, but there is no point shorting at 1.2 because every spike up will take me out.
I have been short for a month, and was was still short last night, I hope to still be short when I check my account later.


I hope those on long kept their stops close and didn't lose too much money

that was the last time with violent moves. But that was in span of several days. People had time to get in/out. This happened in 5 mins... Millions of positions trapped. Which is historic.

Yes please share your stop losses experience.

My stop loss on 1.985 was fillfiled at 1.926 and another stoploss on 1.91 was fulfilled at 1.8899.

Broker is dukascopy.

Had a very little positions and stop losses worked even with 60 pips slippage so just a £1k down....could have been much worse!

How much did you loose or win on this guys?
