Hi Gator, I am new here, my TA align with your level quoted sell order at 1.1177. However, I am not sure if I should keep the sell order over longer time period (about 3-4 days, excluding weekend of course). Need your advice on this. Thank you.

{quote} Do you put a stop loss?? the changes to hit your stop loss...even 50point..they can give u this reason... u should be on profit if u open before NFP and closing lower....if u not put a stop loss
I did not put a stop loss. I made a inquiry. they said, "it was NFP, the most important ecenomic news of the month
The spread normally widens due to the exptreme market conditions and high volatility."

I just trade 1 lot for this trading. I should have made a profit, but somehow lost money.

Higher timeframe charts are nice, from a technical standpoint. Looks like a lower high has formed (D1), time to thrust down and establish a lower low, finally.

Asking for some help. I had an OCO order open before the NFP. Buy 1.1286 / Sell 1.1175 The Buy got executed on FXCM at 8:30am ET. Can someone compare the price from their broker at this time and comment on whether this price was ever reached? Tough day...Because of this I got taken for a -130+ pip loss despite having a 30pip SL associated with the order. Thanks in advance.
I had the same problem with fxcm!
got a buy order @1.1285 and it get executed #!@ !!!
I call them and they say their max price was 1.1289. I don't know what to think.... I got -180 pips

On my feed the price spiked to 1.12728 so it depends what kind of spread your broker had at that time by your trade it seems your broker had a 14 pip spread

I have also fxcm, the rate on the chart print spike right after the news to 1.1277. So it is comparable with other brokers. Fxcm is one of the best regarding spread.

However, orders can be executed during the minute the news released above or lower than the rate printed on the chart, this is normal and happening all the time. This is not broker issue, the worst thing to do is a pending order just before the NFP. I think you do not need advice regarding that, you have learnt it the hard way.

Don't miss one important fact.. God gave these stubborn bears an "evening star" candle pattern

Today I entered a short position of GBPUSD at 1.53216 before the announcement of NFP, but it was closed automatically at 1.53661. When I looked at the data of GBPUSD, the rate was 1.533357 when the position was closed. Is the spread too large compared to my broker's competitors? My broker is XM.
Where was your stop? Or were you margin called? XM is not a good broker....
