    Reuters high post news is 1.1145.

    But they're done on a fill or kill basis. So what it results in is not just slippage but the occasional failure to execute.

    So one has to compensate by using Stop Limits for entry and exit.

    BTW, That's good news, Golf.

    Not really good news

    It was an entry order so she should have been long in the 40`s,
    now there is no position.

  4. Was the order a stop order or stop limit? Also, CAD rallied back into the teens before extending losses when the USD ripped across the board.

    it was a SL, $/cad is way to messy after news on IB. There is
    no liquidity on IB.

    IB cancelled the trade but it took away a good idea that
    should have been filled in the1.1140`s.
