Another issue with oanda is their interest on open positions methods. Sure, it is good they charge/calculate interest by the second. But, their interest rates are not very good at all. They charge around 8 times what they pay you for eurusd, ...

Well if your not an oanfda rep, owner, shareholder etc. WTF are you wasting your time participating in this thread, if you are more than happy with the oanda experience. Surely you have profitable trades to attend to!

Exactly!!! THERE IS NO EVIDENCE. There is no paper trail. We cannot prove the price we got filled at wasnt what we clicked on. Oanda know this, like this & want this to continue. We cannot prove what price the chart was when we clicked the entry & ...

No. the datafeed is too fast. ticket prices - what you get filled at. and oanda charts often lag the ticket prices. this was confirmed to me by an oanda rep. Do keep up, instead of getting your info wrong!!

So you're a conspiracy theorist as well? Next you will be telling me that 9/11 wasnt carried out by rogue elements within the US government, but by 19 hijackers with box cutters.

Yes 1/2 a pip here & there isnt much & i could live with it. But unfortunately it was more. More like 0.9 pips + an extra 1.5 pips - a large percentage of the time. Not good.

Im not a guru. Im not your preacher. Im not here to show you the magic way. Overall i felt oanda were sneakily not all that, I wanted to know if i was alone. Pipmutt et al have shown me that they have a very similar interpretation of their own oanda ...

When the spread is meant to be 0.9 pips, i do not think it is acceptable for the REAL (fill price) spread to work out 50% more, let alone 100-200+% more. I am not talking about news times. I accept the oanda spread widens around news. Other brokers ...

I suspect only those who fiercely deny what info i am offering to this community, & seek to discredit what i say. I dont understand this misplaced loyalty to the broker, who you will defend at all costs.

Exactly. so what choice is the oanda client left with, other than to use chart data from another source. Data that is not oandas, and that will typically be lagging oandas . Oanda has certainly ensured they have the quickest prices. No mistakes ...

It certainly makes it true to my own experience & that of others posting similar reports here. I just dont get your motives for fiercely denying & trying to discredit everything we are saying.

Another oanda rep? I think the OP has the right to, & it is a good idea, to make their posts easily recognisable.

My opinions are based on my factual experience with oanda. Therefore the views that i express are true. I post them here to warn fellow traders. And in the hope that my disatisfaction will lead to oanda 1. vastly improving what they offer. Or 2. if ...

I will repeat what i said in my OP. Oanda is a scamming bucket shop. Their advertised 0.9 pip spreads are a joke. Because with the negative slippage that you will experience the majority of the time (90%+), the actual spread that you will pay per ...

Nah man it aint that. I know what you mean, but for my trading theres absolutely no reason i should get shafted by slippage more times than beneficial slippage. It was more like 90/10 against/for actually. 90% of time getting filled at a worse price ...

Some interesting responses. And its good to hear other credible witnesses agreeing with me that oanda are a bunch of scammers. True, there is no perfect broker. But, Oandas marketing promises so much & delievers so little. I come out of 80% of ...

Thanks futures. Its good to hear someone who agrees. Yes it seems like these "problems" are possibly left in place because they serve oanda profits well. Why the hell else would they not address such problems in 7 years?! Oandas answer to the ...
