Thank you for confirming what everybody had already guessed. (And seems I won my bet) I 100% agree with what you wrote and I would totally respect that you don't want to publish anything if you weren't bragging so much (you speak 5 langages, trade ...

OANDA Down?

Hey Mister the Oracle (lol), just curious, why don't you provide us a link to a myfxbook account or similar, or publish here as Lizard ? I'm already pretty impressed by his account, so yours... I guess I'm gonna be astonished ! I bet we won't see ...

OANDA Down?

This is NOT true. Believe it if you want, but only bucketshops and scam brokers act like this. (I agree there are a bunch around) Legitimate brokers hedge what is needed to, and they are just very happy if you earn big money, and trade bigger. It ...

OANDA Down?

Hi, AAAFx was my first broker (when I tried Zulutrade at that time), and NO it is NOT a good broker (uneless it has changed since 3 years, but I doubt it) Mifid is not a regulatory body, it's just a directive that says that a broker has to work and ...

Is AAAFx a good broker?

IMO, NEVER do that (adapting to a broker you feel is playing games with you). This is exactly what made me loose big money wth Exness. I adapted to their manipulations, and at the end, I have been unable to withdraw my funds, pure and simple.You ...

OANDA Down?

I am a Pepperstone customer since a while. I wouldn't allow myself to recommand a broker where I am not trading my own money since a decent time.I am NOT experiencing any issue with them, and not what you're pointing out. The only points I would ...

Best Broker(s) for Automatic Trading?

You are right on many points, especially the one telling that it doesn't make any sense (if only it was the only thing to not make sense) Maybe I'm wrong, but it is what BROKERS told me (or maybe it was wrong), but it always seemed to be correct ...

Best Broker(s) for Automatic Trading?

Damn, who stays so long (2005 you say ? You "TRADE since", not you "TRADED" or "was used to trade" ?) with a broker which "ALWAYS" disconnect you in high volatility times ? Just for others who read this, I'm, like many, a pretty long time Oanda ...

OANDA Down?

That's amazing. I see this a lot on forums and often ask myself: People just don't read or they are unable to understand what's written ? (I'm editing after reading again, maybe I'm misunderstanding the question on this one. The guy is maybe just ...

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

Love it In life in general, people like to consider that whatever bad happens, it's always 100% someone else's fault. Hey, that's convenient: Just imagine who's fault it would mean it is, otherwise ? Not acceptable...

OANDA Down?

That's right, I would say that I get more often 0.1 pip positive slippage on pending orders. I rarely get negative slippage that way. But sometimes, the price may stay above/under a little bit longer until Oanda is sure they want to hit that pending ...

OANDA Discussion

I agree with JenX. Especially when you're a loyal customer since years, haven't made any withdrawal, even the first 20e charge is very difficult to accept. They should allow a free withdrawal after a while. For me, it's more psychological than ...

OANDA Discussion

Yeah, in this case, be more clever than "people" ... To answer your question, you can have a look on websites like myfxbook or similars, you wil see that there are winning traders with market makers. And the CFTC publishes every quarter the ratio of ...

Has anyone been profitable with a Market Maker?

Hi, Some things don't go together in what you're asking: Regulated and Skrill for example. If it's in Europe or US, that's impossible, regulators don't want a broker to propose this kind of funding/withdrawal method. If it's a Mauritius, NZ or ...

Best Broker(s) for Automatic Trading?

Come on, what does it really change to know EXACTLY what happened ? It happened, it happened. It IS unfortunate (and I am an Oanda customer). Now Oanda says that "We take this matter very seriously and are working with our network providers to add ...

OANDA Down?

I don't think so. It's not like this kind of issue is common with Oanda. To my knowledge, it's the first time since years and years. And doing such a thing would cost them far more than what they would earn from it. It's not even sure they would ...

OANDA Down?

Yes, this interests me too. Such a comment about Dukascopy is quite surprising !

OANDA Down?

I honestly don't think so. This will cost (and is already costing) them big time !

OANDA Down?

Loved "Jeremy T" answer on twitter: @OANDA What does that even mean? You guys didnt pay the internet bill?? ( url ) Lol

Nothing is working anymore. Everything down. Lesson of the day: Write the phone number somewhere, because when it's down, you might not be able to look on their website Those looking to phone them, try: Phone: 1 877 OANDA FX
