30 pip spread today on USD/CAD during CPI. More and more difficult to make $. I'm pretty disappointed. .

{quote} Whipsaw....

Whipsaw is normal, what bothers me is an instant 30 pip spread on oanda... it used to be 20 pip spread on CPI, even 15....

Starting to navigate in very muddy waters with everything that's going on... I'll keep an eye on the spreads next week, hopefully things normalize a bit

{quote} Lukasz, I was thinking about your trading style... It's kind of hard to trade the L type of setting with major moves like that.... are you sure you wanna do it like that? e.g. look at the CAD Mon. Statement chart above... you're missing a major major part of the move! Tell me what you think.
I trade after news because i use ECN broker so i have problems with SL's and slippage (before news) but it's not a problem when i trade AFTER news, this is number one reason. And yes, it's quite hard to trade like this on currnecies, so that is why i trade gold.

I feel much more comfortable when it's after the initial spike.

It's a polish bank which also have FX trading platform. I feel much more comfortable when my money is in the bank I think that this kind of institution will not bankrupt so easily like a lot of brokers few days ago

BTW i think that price of gold will rise after greek voting.

It will be nice to see how the broker fill orders in terms of slippage during news hour.
Fixed spread and no slippage during news release , will be too good to be true, definitely the best broker for a news trader.
Please let us know your experience with slippage during news hour
