Ok, just to balance things out a bit, Oanda have clearly had numerous problems in the past ranging from platform connectivity issues to erroneous quotes, many of which I have posted about on this thread. In the majority Oanda were fair and reversed any orders filled on bad quotes (including stop loss orders), even though they were under no legal obligation to.
Since around October last year the platform has been extremely stable, connectivity has been good with only very occasional momentary disconnections, and fills have been excellent even across volatile times like US NFP releases.
I'm an active intraday scalper making on average 25-35 trades per day and have had hardly any problems with executing around 1,000 trades over the past 3 months as can be seen from some of the trading blotters posted.
I believe it's important to take into consideration the source of complaints about brokers, it's often the case that an inexperienced trader who is consistently losing money finds it easier to blame the broker for his losses rather than take responsibility for his own poor judgment, trading inexperience, and inadequacies. Forex is an unforgiving market and doesn't suffer fools gladly!
