hello friends...

anyone having some weird thing on their fxtrade desktop version recently?

my fx chart has some indicator i added at the bottom, like MACD etc

since yesterday, when i launch my fxtrade desktop, as soon as it logs in, the indicator window will be duplicated multiple copies resulting in many duplicate windows cramping every thing onto screen.

seems each time log in will duplicate a set of indicators.

anyone can help?

If you're using their desktop platform it might be that you have those open in one of your other accounts and saved that profile. You can preset what profile to display and which is your primary I believe whenever you load the platform.

Be careful with this broker. Actually I don't recommend them but to only professionals or those consistently profitable. At the very least only trade high impact fundamental catalyst and stay away from the interim periods. They are one in a few that are very powerful and there's a certain conflict of interest - it's not that they're the counterparty just like all of them are but more.

If you're attempting to trade as a US resident then it's better to go with forex.com. Not implying it's easier, just better for amateurs and just use their mt4 and not their online. There are a few others for US clients but their requirements are overly bloated to open an account.

The Metatrader platform price is not correct!!! Sometime the price lags and when you open a position you are automatically down -15 pips and MORE!! What's going on OANDA!!

Well I will definitely be changing brokers. I have never had a problem with oanda till recently trying to withdraw and they won't let me to any new traders thinking of using oanda DONT. Unless you want to go through a couple week process of trying to withdraw money. It is impossible to get a c.c. removed from you account. I have one on my account that expired they will not let you withdraw any other way until you withdraw what you deposited on the same c.c. but if it's expired like mine then you will not be able to withdraw at all. The customer service sucks they told me to get a stamens from my bank stating the card is no longer active. When I did that they would not accept it and keep telling me to get proper documentation although they won't explain what a proper documentation is I have tried several statment from the bank to the point the bank has no clue what else to provide and states what the have provide should be more the acceptable to any institution. Filing complaints don't work. I'm am to the point where I will have to hire an attorney just to get my money out. My advice do not use oanda

I can 't stress enough to you people that are trying to trade.

DO NOT USE THIS BROKER

Even their competitors hate them and know what they are about. I've been in the industry.

Something important must be about to happen. That's when OANDA usually shuts down their clients' access to their servers.

Oanda did it again!!! I was trading Gbp/Nzd on 30th Sep, I checked the trade before hitting the bed, it was 70+ pips in profit, and i let it run to the planned TP.
I woke up middle of night to go for leak, I checked the trade and was surprised that I was stopped out at 1.96490. There were no major news that triggered the spike up of Gbpnzd price.
I checked other brokers and Marketwatch, the average daily high for Gbpnzd is between 1.96123 - 1.9616. I checked my trade history, the Gbpnzd trade is closed at 1.96689, which even ridiculous.
I contacted Oanda customer service, to log an enquiry. The client experience team got back to the next day and explained that,

"I have investigated your concerns and my findings on this matter are explained below.
We have reviewed this, and can confirm that the price was valid and in line with market at 2 pm EST (7 pm UTC+1)
Please find below a chart from Bloomberg, an independent third party
---unable to view the chart----
Here is the comparison of our Liquidity Provider's who were quoting the price at the time."

The sudden spike of price for Gbpnzd also happened on 21st June 2021.
Is it right for Oanda to do this?

I don't know if it has anything to do with this:

So far my move to the trading major pairs on the Futures market is running smoothly. I do not have as many options to trade FX but I do have access to the top 5 I trade the most which are EURO, POUND, YEN, AUSSIE & LOONIE. For exotics or cross pairs, the volumes are so thin in futures, it is not worth it. I have expanded my trading to include metals, energy & grains as well as currencies & indices. Having access to all of them in one account is very nice. It seems to me that it is blatantly obvious that all brokers want you to trade more. That is...
what platform are using now for the futures?

This broker is a true B-Book broker, calling them a market maker is an insult to real quant shops

They even proclaim it in their jazzed up wording

That price you guys are trading is proprietary

It allows them to reflect whatever they will good or bad for you

Not true

FX - you have to look for them - the legit ones, they're out there

That guy left sachs a long time ago. Great business man but he can't do what I do

If trading was his thing he wouldn't be out there selling courses probably

Heya guys, just recently went live with Oanda U.S.. Has anybody ever had problems with depositing/withdrawing from their account? So far I've deposited a little tuition money, been doing pretty well this past month, and I'm looking to enjoy a bit of my earnings. Just wanted to hear some of your experiences with Oanda U.S. regarding withdrawals, how (in)convenient it is, how customer support responds to inquiries or issues, etc.
Trying my best.
