    I was having trouble getting on earlier, took a few tries. But it seems to be ok now.

    Anyone follow the Hong-Kong dollar? Looks like it's at the lower end of the range

  5. Looking for a short EUR/AUD below 1.9600. Hourlies look good for this, but the pair has been making some wild moves around the US open. I won't be here to babysit, trying to protect some profit. We'll see.

  8. Saw a few people saying their login password wasn't recognized so they couldn't log in, demo was fine apparently.

    Are you looking around for a new MM? I've been looking around but there's nothing any better as far as I can see :(

  9. I have been using GFT while for my live account but have several demos up to compare spreads. While Oanda has the best spread on the e/u. GFT's spreads on all their pairs have been consistent and pretty good, its usually 2 -3 pips, never been above 3 the g/u is 4 pips eht e/j 3-4 pips u/u 2-3 pips. Its not the best broker, but from what I have seen and I am new there are no best brokers, just the ones that are decent and GFT is pretty decent comparably. And in the past I have complained about Gain, as I use them thru Tradestation as a back up since I have my futures account thru TS. TS charges a small commission but the spreads arent that bad the are less then Gains actual spread(forex.com) The spread on the g/u is 2-3, e/u 1-2, e/j 2-3. I jhave a mini account with them, so If I do 10 mini lots at one time the commission is a total round turn of 3 bucks. So not to bad. Just my 2 cents. And I have complained about these brokers in the past, not for stop hunting or anything, becuase I dont worry about that and havent seen it, but slow orders with gft sometimes. I am trying to trade of the 15 min charts but I am a scalper by nature and I do scalp. It was getting to the point of looking for better brokers was like a job and it seems they all have there pluses and minuses, just pick one and stick with it. My hats off to you guys sticking eith Oanda. The grass is not always greener somewhere else. We just seem to have to deal with the brokers we choose and trade because as traders we are adaptable. Well just putting it out there for info for some people for info purpuses. Just take it with a grain of salt , I am new to fx but been futures trading for years. And cable and Reaver keep up the great trading you guys motivate me, since I am making the transistion to trading fx exclusivley. I have traded fx futures and tell you the truth I am more a fan of the fx itself not the globex.
