Quoting SteadyPips
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.
Most brokers plot the bid on the chart...not the ask or the execution price. So, you had a buy stop at 1.1286, even though the bid didn't get there, the ask did b/c of the wider spreads associated with major data releases. When you have a buy stop order in waiting, all it takes to get filled is for the ask to get to your order price and you'll be filled at the current market offer, whatever that may be. It works the same way, just backwards with a sell stop. This is what happened to you. I'm not trying to be harsh, but it was your fault, not your broker.....hopefully it's a valuable lesson. Keep on keeping on, you'll get it back
Don't trade the noise

Tsipras is making a typical politician's grandstand before his own people, in his own "house" elsewhere he will be more reasonable.

{quote} 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
They advised I look at a tick chart from 8:29-8:31am ET. When I do I see at 8:30:01 at the highest Ask it reached 1.12898 / Bid 1.12772.
Do you see similar for your broker?
