Sive,
I understand that you have several years of experience in the markets. Has an experience of really bad slippage ever affected you? For example, the type of movement that occurred on Tuesday, if someone had had a short position in the EUR/USD and a stop loss of say 20 - 30 pips, I really doubt the Loss would have been limited to 20 pips since the move up was at least 130 pips in a very short time. I was not in a position Tuesday, but i ask you this because I have heard of this happen to people and I get very nervous investing when I see this happen. I look at this activity and truly believe that it could have probably wiped out 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or even 3 months worth of profits! I also believe that times like these are not normal and there is a lot of nervousness among investors in the current market environment. Please give me your opinion.
Thanks Mike
