There is something wrong with ICMarkets Live 4 today. No connection for more than 20m until now, on my account.

Interesting, NY-02 seemed fine this week, no issues.

They offer many servers, if your having trouble just ask them to switch to another server. This week the volume was different. Volatily was pretty low also in all the markets!

They mentioned sometimes the servers get bogged down with all the EAs operating on them. Could be the reason, who knows!

Actually live02 server also had half hour down this week. I happened to make a trade at that time, so I noticed. But Icm is still a good broker. They checked my position and soon made compensation.

It seems to me this might of just been a broker move. Looking at different sources such as investing.com and NetDania, price dropped 35 points unlike your screenshot!

This sometimes happens, with spreads at opening with low volume and someone takes a huge order!

Not totally sure what you're trying to imply COGS. All I know is what I see, and it was not a 5000 point spread. The spread remained the same (around 6), the bid/ask glitched, for quite some time. Clearly, totally an ICM glitch and would love to hear from an ICM rep about what happened.

"One huge order" causing a 60% price drop on any indices? Sorry mate, but you know that's impossible.

From a brokers stand point, it is very possible and happens all the time! Where is the big spike on the charts below, from none broker charting information?

Sorry mate, what are you trying to prove here? Your screen shots don't show a 5000 point drop??? I can see a couple of 10 point spikes. Your point??

Actually COGS, if you actually know of a broker that fits your description of "From a brokers stand point, it is very possible and happens all the time! " PLEASE let me know who that broker is so I can arbitrage the crap out of them!!! LOL

This is from Live-02. Also appears on their demo servers as well. The strange thing is, it only appears on TF H4 and above for me, though my partner sees it on M15 and above.

Hello guys,

I use the server "LIVE02.LA.01" and I see the same price spike down, also on the 4h and daily chart, but not on the 1h chart.

Has anyone already notified the support (which I guess so)? It would be great if a representative of ICM could make a statement, also stating what happened to those who actually had a long position with a SL order.

Also the same question to you guys, if someone's stop was triggered or not it would be interesting to know so we know what is happening here.
