I did - it kept going the wrong way! Just as well it's demo money...

How do u guys set the stop-loss gap? How do u decide how many pips?

Who looks at Stochastic Slow (SSD) here? Any comments?

Based on......?

Seems to be quite a few platforms where trailing stop-loss don't work unless the client is connected.

Which ones DO work without the client connected?

Very useful, thanks... Would be very useful at the beginning of each thread..

gbpchf spread = 9 pips, a bit wide to make profit, isn't it?

what's your platform?

Anyone using Zulutrade?

Euro looks like a down-channel.

On the other hand, there might be a retracement in the Euro soon...

IBFX had problems last night during the big movements. My orders kept being rejected and requoted and rejected. Not sure if this worse than any other brokers/platforms.

The EUR has gone down 300 pips in the past day.

So did you make big profit?

Even if the Fed were to cut IR, it's effectiveness may be limited. It is now up to the US Govt to come up with more spending ideas, but with the election coming up, nothing is going to happen for a while.

I think some wires are getting crossed here.

You open an FCA account when you have a lot of transactions in that particular currency, like when you have a business.

To open a forex broker account, there is no point in an FCA because all you need to do is pay into the forex account and trade from there.

Doing your own mql4 programming?
