FXSOL - now seriously a bucket shop

[danger66]

"trading has closed for this pair"

Maybe they "open" and "close" their forex business like the stock market! What a joke. I have never liked these guys since I had a few conferences with their head guys about 6 years ago. Got a bad "feeling" about their operation.

I've been using these guys for about 6 months after moving from CMS. FXSOL used to have seamless and instant order placement, even during nonfarm payroll figures. Now they widen their spreads, turn trading off even up to 1 1/2 hours after nonfarm payrolls, orders time out, and then even dictate to how far to place your stops when submitting orders. So convenient for stop running!

I've had enough of these guys. For anyone thinking about signing up - my advice is to STAY AWAY!!!

I want to make comment about fxsol stop running
I just have usdjpy stop loss at 118.10 and price come down to 118.11 and my stop was intact
Usually if broker wants your stop to be executed they dont have problem moving price one pip lower

Actually Moe27, I chose not to reply. Judging by the pessimistic way you post you represent that bitter and twisted portion of posters that belong to elite trader. No matter what I posted back you'll be sure to post something cynical, confronting, and contradictory. Personally I have better things to do in my life than to be baited and argue with an angry redneck on a public forum.

For those that must know, yes I did email FXsol. The response I received was the typical. That they were unaware of the situation and that the problem must have been at my end. Next time I will be a little more prepared and do a screen capture to provide evidence of such. I will not however allow myself to be played off in a tit-for-tat game by publicly posting private conversation. I got over that in primary school. If I do it will be my choice and not yours.

But Moe27, you go ahead and stick by your broker though thick and thin, because surely they will do the same for you!! Won't they?? And....if you don't know the definition of a bucket shop then you should pick up a book (like Smitten's Jesse Livermore) and have a read, that is if you have the time in between trying to bignote yourself by flaming others on a public forum.

Actually ... by definition FXSOL is a bucketshop ... correct?

All that we're disputing here is whether or not they have moved from good bucket shop to awful bucket shop. One reason they might have been good was to get some customers. One reason they might be becoming awful is that now they have achieved goal one they have to make some money.

Sounds like a plan
