Exist the possibility that a broker switch order execution from electronically at manually ( I mean for long time ... ) ? why this happen ? I have read this post in Moneytec forum : ------------------------------- Apparently GFT doesn't like the fact that I've been so successful this past month. My orders are now taking between 7 and 10 seconds to fill and almost all of my orders are now slipping by at least 1 pip up to 8 pips (on both sides of my trades), which has killed my ability to trade the way I do. I called them and they will no longer let me execute my orders electronically - they're all being filled by a dealer, hence the delays.
Highly likely a FX winner would have to devise a proper system to be suitable (i.e. acceptable) to his/her trading platform's market maker.
