I have traded w/ Oanda since I started trading and am used to their idiosyncrasies, but I think I am going to have to let them go. I can no longer be confident that the platform will be up during crucial times. I don't give a crap about the increased spreads, but I have reached a level where the platform being unavailable for a 1/2 hour at a time can seriously impact me. I cannot call to open/close a trade as Oanda does not offer this service, even during down times.
I am evaluating hotspotfx and will be making the move as soon as they confirm access via Ninjatrader.

In trading, there is no bullshit. You either make money or you don't.
