That video above doesn't bother me at all. What does bother me is getting disconnected or having my orders delayed. The lagging quotes above are just a graphical glitch (at least on the surface). As long as I'm filled where the market is at (instant execution) is all I really care about.
I agree with you up to a point, but as customers aren't we entitled to both? In such a competitive business why do we have to accept anything but the very best in service and facilities? As traders we need very little from the broker, competitive executable quotes, a reliable and functional platform, and efficient technical/account support when we need it. None of that should be beyond even the most basic broker, after all it's what their business is all about. Except for FXManager I would vote with my feet and be off to greener pastures, Oanda sucks in pretty much every area of the business!
I don't disagree. But this lag isn't something that is ongoing. At best it's an anomaly that seems to happen sometimes when there is sudden volatility. I've tried a couple other brokers and the problems were far greater and occurred more often for me than dealing with the occasional lag or disconnect at Oanda.
i wanted to know if there is any update , i am thinking to use Oanda , want to know if these problems still exist ...
You can open an account with any dollar amount. Just open it up and give it a whirl. And I'll add, the biggest problem scalping with Oanda, is most people don't know how to scalp.
