Where it becomes even more interesting in that regard is for people like me. I use GoMarkets and can observe the current spread. At 2:14PM CST right now, the spread on the EUR/USD looks to be less than three pips. The USD/CAD? Just over 4 pips. ...

Oanda Weekend Practice

Wonderful! Thank you both. Both of these posts have been a great help. And CodeMeister, I'm a die hard fan of the Nucks having been born and raised with their games but their fans make me glad I live in another province now in my adulthood. What ...

Visually backtest custom indicators?

They haven't ignored it. GO explained that it was an error in one of their data feeds if i recall correctly and that in most cases, they couldn't really do anything about the problems suffered by some customers. They've taken steps to ensure that ...

GoMarkets Discussion

My $0.02: I would recommend, easily, above all others (not just those listed here) GO Markets. I have never seen what I would consider a stop hunt, they provide very narrow spreads (usually on EUR/USD, I notice less than a pip) and the customer ...

Oanda, Go markets, or MB trading

Straight through to who? So far as I understand it, they maintain their own internal liquidity pool. Bucketshop. Not that I haven't read great things about them, I just wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole myself.

Suggest to me a broker Please!

Yeah, I'm also curious to know why brokers are toying with MT5. It doesn't seem much better (if better at all) than MT4 aside from more accessible language for encoding EAs. That aside, metaquotes went and barfed on our brains all at once when they ...

GoMarkets Discussion

TP is not an STP broker...whatever we all seem to think STP and ECN to mean. Also, eToro? Really?

Suggest to me a broker Please!

Oh yeah, for sure. I'm thrilled that they put so much work into their trading infrastructure but I would like to understand it better is all. Good on you for getting to the question before me. Now...let's hope for an answer once some one gets some ...

GoMarkets Discussion

In regard to server connections: On page 143 (I think) of this thread, some one mentions connecting to DC2 all the time despite having a co-located or virtually co-located setup with CNS in San-Diego for their VPS. I have this same setup and went ...

GoMarkets Discussion

I just wanted to post quickly that I've been extremely happy with my account at GoMarkets. I use a couple of trading robots and they work better on GM live than any other broker live account I've tried. Execution is the best I've experienced and am ...

GoMarkets Discussion

It's a half decent tool but deceptive for those who don't understand how the internet works. Every connection you see on the web hops from one server to the next as information is passed along from point A to point B. The farther away you are from ...

GoMarkets Discussion

That crock doesn't help people running automated strategies. Opening and closing trades is just fine and dandy but now, one must wonder if they could possibly leave their EAs running on a VPS and feel even slightly secure.

GoMarkets Discussion

Hey there Nomask. This definitly isn't my trading style of choice personally but I wanted to post in your thread to let any others reading know that this is a very top notch method of trading. It may not be fore me because of my own personal ...

Trading Major Lines

Hey there PTOURNIS, I was wondering if you could tell us what you would define "significant losses" as. You said earlier, that the system closes a trade before it loses very much. Can you tell us generally how many pips a trade can turn against you ...

Stress Free Forex System

The other way to look at forex (if coming from an equity trader's point of view) is that yes you will be risking 2% of your equity and yes in the equity markets you would only lose 2% of your equity if a stock went to zero but if a stock's price ...

no stop loss for stock trades

Thanks for posting MrForex. Check you messages. Cheers
