You are saying that Oanda transaction cost is 2 to 3 pips in Eur/Usd (3x to 4x more expensive than IB). Not true. But whatever.
either a) bollocks, or b) a guaranteed road to ruin. Good luck, you will need it because you will be eaten alive in this industry with such mindset.
I said what I said, please read more carefully. I said it is lower by around 50% with IB vs Oanda and 3x-4x on average more expensive with Oanda if you factor in all currency crosses. And, sorry, if you want to refute the points I made (and the detailed calculations I included) then make a logically coherent argument, but "not true, whatever you say" makes you look stupid or ignorant. If its the latter then no need to respond.
Thank you. Now I'd appreciate it if you could take your bickering over half pips elsewhere, and leave this thread to (perhaps) survive on other merits. OandaWrap v104: Additions: nav_pnl which returns the pnl of a pair as an amount or percentage of equity nav_size_percent_per_pip which returns the size required for a percentage pnl for every pip Convention: calc_convert is now used in place of convert calc_pips gives the difference between two prices in pips Numerous small fixes and speed improvements, including compressed server response and HTTP persistent connexion. Manual is updated (see below) OandaWrap v104 Manual
Of course, I just wanted to make sure the facts are out about OANDA's commission structure because you obviously are not objective, you have skin in the game for OANDA and I laud your coding efforts but that does not change anything about anyone using OANDA and the fact that they are paying a multiple in execution related cost than they otherwise have to.
Really? Point out where I made a mistake in my calculation and I am happy to revise. P.S.: You are a total tool, one of my very first posts under this handle was the clear indication that I am one and the same person than asiaprop and I explained why and stated that the asiaprop handle is dead, which you can confirm by checking that not one additional post was placed under the asiaprop handle. So stop pooping around and leaving your manure when there is nothing to get excited about...
Thanks for exposing yourself as someone who not only trolls but also someone who has nothing of value to add to the discussion. I stand by my calculations (which I posted in detail and which are all 100% accurate), anyone who trades currencies with OANDA throws away money by overpaying in execution related cost. That was my point and proved my point. Take it or leave it... P.S.: My last post under my old handle asiaprop was Feb 2013 as I mentioned and I explained in detail why I discontinued my old handle and started a new one. Your troll cover is entirely exposed! By the way you yourself actually changed your handle without explaining anything. But I remember I produced proof how you flirted and disappeared with another woman at a live ET meet-up while your own wife was present. How tasteless to even use the picture of your son here on this website after several members have testified to my exposing you as a guy committing adultery in public for everyone to see. Shame on you!
The world is surely a grand place. We of the small percentile, for whom to sully another is to release a clockwork bound emotional spring.
