maybe brokers are little broke... and confused after such nasty aggrrrrressive months, making (and losing) money was probably never so easy what happened this time?
Was in the midst of putting together orders and stops when they went offline (and it wasn't me, their forums showed that it was quite a few folks). The outage was prompty restored, but the opportunity was gone.
all in all You still trade with them Ivanovich, why? what I like about Oanda are exact interbank quotes (besides these spikes, why don't they remove it for God's sake?), now (since July) they have no delays comparing to the fastest quotes on the market as cable said, if You play cautiously, it is possible to compensate their dirty games, but aren't there better choices for You Ivanovich (You are not a scalper)
The E/U went up 100pips then back down 100pips and now back up almost another 100pips in the span of about 90min or so. I can't believe Oanda is that shady!!
Hmmm, seems like they've gone off line again, when I came back from walking the dogs I got this message.... ....but when I finally got back on they had filled all my orders for another 496 pips!! God Bless Eur/Aud and all who sail in her, Sell order 12 pips off the top! Yep I'm a stupid piker scalper trading retail forex with an evil stop-hunting bucketshop....and I love it!
