So because you didn't know how to control your risk, or even trade, you blame Oanda and label them a bucket shop and the worst that you ever seen? Hahahahaha! When you get right down to it, all b0rkers are bucket shops. Some just have less shit in ...

It sure doesn't look like it's stopping it now does it? Rethink your TA. Look for .445XX and then some. I'm on the 4hr chart by the way.
