actually in a OTC market, there is never a real price, between 0.9 to 2 pips is still fine and manageble. Scary part is getting slipped many points away from market average leaving you in the dust. But has never happen to me though.

they have been slow but responsive so far, I am pretty sure adjustments will be made, just hope that they won't mess up the stability of the platform again...

I too suspect a similar set up between oanda and mbt. My feeling about the "smoothed prices" could be due to the correction of prices policy ? Oanda is still very attractive as a low cost broker though, albeit the current situation. They make everybody else seem so expensive to trade with.

FXCM, they did a better marketing job.

hi ammo, thanks, I agree, I personally prefer price action and indicator to confirm each other though. Still it does not answer the question. I mean, looking at just the indicator, assuming no other analysis done. :) regards

Hi, I am wondering if more experienced users could help me. Stochastics overbought levels are more significant and reliable if it is preceded by a swing from the oversold level and vice versa. Is the above true ? Thanks in advance for your advice. regards mark

options, forwards are fun especially for the maths geek. Good as insurance when cannot be around watching positions. Wonder if anybody can shed some light on currency derivatives strategies.

So much for oanda...I am a little disappointed.

I use MB Trading for stocks, futures and FX. Not the best but better than average, trading FX with MB is a little expensive imo, however they offer decent ECN market and have responded to client's feedback quite well.

not a lot of meaningful moves anyway...guess u anticipated that as you were away from market ? lol regards

Only 2 choices ? As far as trading is concern, there are rarely binary conclusions.

I agree, this is one subject that has endless debate. Taking a winning average of less than 50% is a negative expectation game for me, of course there are the odds and payoffs aspects as well as all the mm mumbo jumbo. < 50% is psychologically not satisfying and kill the game real quick. Then...

a coin flip is 50%, a system should do better than that...no ?

Hi guys, basically I am talking about arbitrage and involves taking advantage of temporary price inefficiencies but that is not the subject here. I heard about what's going on with the Metatrader people, I don't really get what they are trying to do anyway. To the thread starter, if it...

I remember reading somewhere, its market wizards I think, where the author said nowadays you can look at a "hedge fund" and ask them where's the hedge ? I think the new term should be financial engineering.

I think you are confused, there is a simultaneously long and short of a SINGLE currency, not a pair. Of course baring my limited knowledge. regards
