I agree with what you're saying, but also you have to agree, it's easy for Oanda to squeeze .5 pips or more on each trade. I think what the OP was saying was, FXCM is now offering lower spreads on that pair. To me, the "dynamic spread" Oanda is ...

Yes, this is called "dynamic spreads" it's supposed to the "SO GOOD FOR OUR TRADERS" (FROM OANDA). Basically they are fcking everyone over with high "dynamic" spreads.

I brought this up a few weeks ago... guess a lot of people didn't know, or didn't care.

I'm glad more people are finally seeing this. I was wondering if it was just me. Dynamic spreads are ok, if your spread is .3 to .8. Oanda saying their dynamic spreads are good for "us" is bullshit. Now I constantly watch the spread, and even when I ...

OANDA Discussion

It looks like "dynamic spreads" are the new norm at Oanda. I noticed this this week. The spread will "flicker" up and down during the day for no reason (or no reason on the news release calendar). It appears the days of getting .9 on EUR/USD with ...

I just got the email too. I've been trading with Oanda for over 6 years and I've never seen this done before. On the FF calendar, Greek elections are on the 17th, it looks like Oanda is expecting a really wild ride.

When I first started forex trading (5 years ago), I was on EST, just moved to PST 3 months ago, and it's brutal. Hang in there and good luck.

Exactly correct. My trading style offers multiple setups a day also. I hate playing the "shoulda, coulda, woulda" game with myself and realize I need to break that behavior once and for all. I look forward to reading your thread all the way through ...

Make Money Everyday - A Guide to Short-Term Trading

I couldn't agree more with this post. My strategy is to get 10-20 pips, but it's very deflating to take the 10, and then see price run another 50 pips. So then I want to hold them longer, but that doesn't work because now I get stopped out more. I'm ...

Thanks for the clarification...

Yes, I understand that. Just didn't understand that slam against someone else going short at that time. No reason to get offensive, just trying to understand why you would say that, and then close your long. I actually like this thread (again), ...

If you want to get technical... he posted this: Eutrader didn't offer much besides bearish, bearish, bearish... didn't realize he posts spam to this board.... Besides that, his posts where not related to two different topics, he slammed Eutrader for ...

Yes, not sure what to make of this. It's a very odd event considering EURUSD didn't move.

Maybe you should tell us. You slammed someone for selling, then 4 minutes later you closed out. Just curious, that's all.

You posted the last one 4 minutes after the first one. Why?
