FXCM ...
Those suckers at FXCM !
My friends at FXCM just squeezed me, spiked me, fucked me.
Rember my NU long trade at 0.84382 ? Was a nice one +50 etc etc ... about to trigger a new long etc etc ...
Before the NZD news, I set my SL at 8440 just to be safe.
I check 10 minutes after the news and I see my trade closed for a .... 67 pips loss !!! I should be at BE !
Check the screenshot, I never saw that ! My closing price is BELOW the spike !
Also, I check on 6 live brokers :
FXCM low : 84146
ALPARI UK live low : 84537
FXDD Live : 84463
MIG Bank Live : 8462
FX Solution live : 8460
CITIBANK : 8443
Somebody got the SEC, NFA, ARMY, NASA email adress, will fill a complain.

Re: 10.4 A Complete System
Bad tick probably. The question is are they going to refund your trade... My ATCBrokers terminal shows the same, but ICMarkets spike low was 30 pips higher (like other brokers you have mentioned).
Probably they tell you that it was slippage and you must be prepared for this in fast moving market... not too funny.

Re: 10.4 A Complete System
I am guessing it was a glitch - false spike. Closing below it makes no sense though but still some kind of error. If it is live I am sure they will refund. The tricks they play to screw you are usually more subtlelhDT wrote:Even with slippage. Below 40pips the spike ? Never saw that.

Re: 10.4 A Complete System
Hopefully they do right by you. You've done your homework, please let us know the outcome. I've always considered them to be one of the larger safer brokers. Most companies on the NYSE aren't interested in shenanigans for a few bucks.lhDT wrote:Even with slippage. Below 40pips the spike ? Never saw that.

Re: 10.4 A Complete System
And if not, remind them that I have the power to change every reference to them here to 'Client-screwing FXCM". Granted, this is only a tiny forum that a giant like FXCM has no need to worry about, but are a few bucks really worth the regular approbation of a forum that grows by about 300 members a month?mjws00 wrote:Hopefully they do right by you.

Read the effing manual, ok?
Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.
I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.
Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

I would take this to them (your crim), you may get reimbursed....
I have done this with my broker when price action appears to be odd...

Re: 10.4 A Complete System
Well,
Just woke this morning and started to check my trades....
My very first 10.4 trade that i took after reading the 10.4 thread and Bobs document from cover to cover was the GBPAUD short that i posted about yesterday....
Well, i just noticed it hit my TP target just above the WS1 level @ 1.48760 for a very tidy 113 pip gain....very nice
My entry was at 2:15 (GMT +2) yesterday just below mid pivot @ 1.49891...
It looks like the pair may cycle back up and set itself for another short trade later in the week or the start of next week....
I'm also short AUDNZD GBPNZD GBPCAD and long NZDUSD
Regards
Wiggy
