Don's tell me you have a position at 1.3190 too???? ...
LOL yes indeed.
I have Demo traded with MBTrading for ages, but somehow, I never got to using them for any Live account and I cannot remember why!
you should try. like i said, their execution is great. and bear in mind my orders have to cross the pacific ocean to hit their servers and i experience no lag whatsoever. i can only imagine how much better it must for US based traders considering they are much closer to their servers. and if you really are serious about split millisecond execution, they have something called VPS so you can host your MT4 EAs right next to their trade servers and enjoy high frequency trading.
but sometimes something happens to the servers. however in a couple of secs you're back in as all trading switches over to their backup systems. they have a system status link on their site that shows the current system conditions--i like that. you always know what's going on. some people complain about their liquidity though, but that's probably because their trades are much larger than retail trades.
Another broker I Demo traded for a while is Tadawul, but since getting USD1,079,939.88 in losses on a USD3k account, I completely struck them off my list. Imagine getting that figure in arrears in a Live trading account!
holy ****! how does that even happen? you had a couple 100s to a 1000s lots open or what?
Pepperstone have some persistent problems with their platform servers causing them to have delayed trade execution and completely freezing up. Their Technical dept informed that they will have that fixed soon and hence I carry out very little trades in my account until they have got that problem sorted out.
that's good to know. thanks.
Yes, Swiss brokers are without a doubt the best, and I am thinking of Dukascopy...but, if I really want to go with them, I will have to find the time to learn how to use their platform....which I am not too crazy about right now!
i played around with their JFOREX platform... although am not crazy how the UI is designed, it works fine and it takes less than 30 mins to figure out where everything is and use properly. since i don't use MT4 EAs, i couldn't care less that MT4 EAs are not supported. but JFOREX can run EAs if you code them in Java. so same thing pretty much but faster order entry than MT4.
Well, checking back on the charts, it looks like the market is hardly moving at all.....
right. BBs on H4 are in squeeze mode. i hope we'll have a breakout to the upside tomorrow.
