Let's see what we open at today. Should be a pretty green day today. Would be nice though if we see a pullback to allow for an entry.

Should have gotten in around 10,000 but I was afraid it would pull back further. Missed the extra dollars

This low inflation data from the UK can only mean no hikes and more stimulus, more QE indices up EUR and GBP down.
Don't get mad, get even!

More QE is good news for Index Bulls. We got G7 meeting starting this Friday and into the weekend so this time it is a bit tricky.

Quick question here.. I had a stop loss at 9990 and it executed at 9977, is this normal to be off by that many points? I
I entered around 10,000 and placed a stop loss at 9990 but when it hit 9990 it did not close position until it got to 9977

What I mean is short term or longer term? Futures expire middle of next month.

If the spread is that wide, yes. If the spread or slippage are that wide, change the broker.

13 points is alot... its usually traded 1 to 3 points difference...... is that a gap in the tick chart, or.. perhaps there's a stall in the feed?

From I saw it dropped from 9995 to 9975 in pretty much a second, spread and order execution time can range quite a bit, so bad luck there, I guess.

First position was a short at 10,043.50 which I closed around 10,030. After closing my position it dropped to 10,000 where I opened a new position with a stop loss at 9990 and from there it fell but during fall Forex closed and executed position at 9777
