Thanks for posting and thanks for your interest! I don't understand your first question. I just put two orders per pair into the market... I've thought about moving the stop to break even but it's a pure mechanical system so I still don't do it. ...

@pipal: If you use limit orders you get almost instant fills. If you use market orders you don't get the price you see but of course the price on the server. As the client always lags a little bit behind the server there might be some deviation - ...

Is Oanda good for 10-20 lots scalping?

Of course not. Not in one pair. Why not a leverage of 10:1? Because it would blow my account away. Regards - Xaron

Oh no! My grids are doing well. I agree in the case you don't maintain the grid but using a grid in the direction of a fundamental trend with small position sizes (low leveraged) is a real pip eater. Regards - Xaron

Worst Strategy!

That's because of the indices and commodities, I guess. Regards - Xaron

Oanda vs. EFX Group - "ding ding ding"

@shrike: Ok, you're right of course. @FXBaby: I do one directional grid trading in the direction of the fundamental trend, e.g. in the EUR/JPY image I use no stops but take profits and very small position sizes. I have a comfort zone (see the ...

Is it good use high or low leverage as a beginner?

I have live accounts with Oanda, ABN Amro (MarketIndex - Oanda platform) and Alpari UK (MT4 market maker). All three are great. Regards - Xaron

Need a good broker and platform

I have only one guess. He isn't old enough to open an account. BTW: I wish you luck with your EA and many pips! Regards - Xaron

100$ -->100,000$ (period: 12 months)

Hmm... maybe you will flame me for this, but my risk/reward ratio is horrible. I cut my winners and let losers run. :surprised I trade small and use some kind of grid trading. It's a pip eater machine. I have to say that I became profitable the ...

Oanda vs. EFX Group - "ding ding ding"

Oanda is one of the market markers where the demo account is a real demo account not like the demo accounts for many MT4 market makers where you get instant fills... $5,000 is ok for Oanda, I'd even trust them $50,000. Forget about ECN if you only ...

Oanda vs. EFX Group - "ding ding ding"

Too low? You need the lowest leverage ever for carry trading. Do even think about to leverage a carry trade, it will blow up your account in a second. Regards - Xaron

which broker is better to do carry trade?

Why? Example: $10,000 account Leverage: 1:1 Pair: EUR/USD You go long at 1.4500 and take profit at 1.4600 with 0.1 standard lots (= 10,000 units). That's a leverage of 1:1 and you made $100 profit or 1%! I do this all the time and make about 1% per ...

Is it good use high or low leverage as a beginner?

I don't know EFX only Oanda and I like them. BTW: They aren't brokers but market makers, that's a difference. I have no real complaints with Oanda, almost every limit and stop was filled exactly where I set it, slippage is very rare and in most ...

Fxopen Are Scammer ................................... ..

No, I have a €10,000 account there, so low 5 figures. The TRY-pairs are real beasts. I don't trade them anymore... Regards - Xaron

Oanda large accounts

Well, yes. If you scalp I would avoid any market maker. But using limit orders they can't play that kind of game with you. Regards - Xaron
