Switch order execution from electronically at manually .... why ?

[tribadism01]

Exist the possibility that a broker switch order execution from electronically at manually ( I mean for long time ... ) ?

why this happen ?

I have read this post in Moneytec forum :

-------------------------------

Apparently GFT doesn't like the fact that I've been so successful this past
month. My orders are now taking between 7 and 10 seconds to fill and almost
all of my orders are now slipping by at least 1 pip up to 8 pips (on both
sides of my trades), which has killed my ability to trade the way I do. I
called them and they will no longer let me execute my orders
electronically - they're all being filled by a dealer, hence the delays.

Highly likely a FX winner would have to devise a proper system to be suitable (i.e. acceptable) to his/her trading platform's market maker.
