Pretty heavy loss here. I kept increasing SL before the news and in the last 30 seconds before news I couldn't even move my SL anymore. First time it happens with oanda. Anyways, I was way too stretched before news to win. Should have entered at :28.

I didn't play it right for this one. I wanted to pay a low spread so I entered 5 minutes before and payed the price of being stretched way too much before news.

{quote} And what does this mean for your average R/R?
Since you refer to (average) R/R. It stands still at 18/120 since my average loss per trade is 18 pips.

In this particular trade here, the R/R was stretched to 40/120.

Keep in mind that the random price could have gone 40+ pips in my advantage instead.

I hope it answers your question.

OK they told me that even though the SL line disappeared before news I could have managed it manually by clicking on my trade arrow and modify the SL manually. I wasn't fast enough to do that. I am in discussion for a refund with them. The software really bugged and I'm very honest here.

If the SL line didn't disappear, I would have raised my SL by just 5 pips and the trade would have stayed. I'm asking them for 100 pip refund at this point.
They will pay for the consequences too.
