    Oanda FXNews

    How does one "survive a hit" on a stop? Maybe if the price is touched, but not traded through? Regardless, agreed on giving them any credit. My stop may have been relatively tight, and my target was 103.95, but I'm trading a small account, so I'll hide and watch for awhile.

    Oanda FXNews

    To further explain, I went long at 102.78 with a stop at 102.27, I had calculated the stop at approx 1/2 ATR. Any thoughts on that method of stop placement?

    Oanda FXNews

    I'm sure this is old news to many. I have been watching the news feed (IFR markets?) on Oanda. When checking their position summaries, it seems they can't pick their nose.

    Forex charts with volume

    Then it makes sense. I think, frequently, some of us forget that all our trades/quotes are with our host broker.

    Forex charts with volume

    I would imagine that ANY broker could provide a volume on their own platform, as it would calculate only their own trades. Not to be paranoid, but imagine how deceptive you could be with a DOM display of your own making.

    24" Acer LCD?

    I was able to sharpen the text on my Samsungs through the graphics card menu (ATI). Changed the refresh to 75hz, not sure if it made the difference

    Now THAT'S funny!!! I had a demo with GFT. I had put my cellphone number on the app. when I downloaded it. Big mistake. Some kid called trying to sell me on their "powerful" indicators. Why are the indicators always "powerful"? powerful, powerful, the word has lost all meaning! Reminds me of...
