    sometimes i deploy a big order, I asumme that market should go to my orders but many times prices scape from me just when i deploy them.

    Why is this? anybody understand?

    What do you mean by "go to my order." If you order is large, you can assume it will move the market away from your price at least in the short run. What assets class and symbol are you trading and how liquid is it? Are you showing your entire size?

    You are trading fx futures, spot cash or non-deliverables?

    the point was, i place a bid on the top of the price in low trade activity. in spot watching fx futures volume. Once i place the bid the price drop a bit (price impact?), then i cancel it and continued his logical way.
