lol, nah it's these sellers trying to tout their wares to unsuspecting novices which get me, they're a pet hate of mine. So I'm guessing you were short something this morning, cable? euro? Nice job if you were!

Yeah I've seen 'em, they're garbage, I wouldn't pay a cent for stuff that's available for free elsewhere. Go peddle your wares in the commercial section with the rest of the snakeoil! ....but have a nice day.

LCG, London Capital Group? Counterparty, conflict of interest and the same potential issues exist. The retail forex trader's problem is always going to be the fact that we need intermediaries who have lines of credit as counterparty, we can't deal ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

Well that would depend on how you define scalping. I take it you're talking about the rapid opening/closing of trades for a couple of pips, that seems to be the way most novices describe it. So as a novice 'scalper' the first thing you seem to be ...

lol, you guys need to see someone about your spread fetish, it ain't healthy! This thread is an excellent example of how shops like Oanda can get away with so much, it seems the majority of folk are too distracted and dazzled by the unbelievably ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

In actual fact quite the opposite is true of Oanda, but as jhig mentioned the major problem for me as well has always been connectivity issues. The other crap, we know about, so it shouldn't come as any surprise and we learn to compensate for it or ...

Great sentiments Razor, seriously very commendable, most hardened traders aren't renowned for their humanitarian qualities!

This thread has some useful links.

what do you read to get useful information?

I think that's all most of us have tried to do, post our own personal experiences and point out some of the pitfalls of trading with Oanda rather than posting personal attacks on complete strangers. I'm really not sure why this Monroe character is ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

lol, this really is tooooo funny now.... Fellas, it's your money so spend it any way you like, it doesn't make an iota of difference to me and it's not my job to nanny you! ....horse, water, lead....and all that stuff

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

The links would be to other forex forums and websites and motives could be misconstrued, besides which it would be bad etiquette posting links to competitors. Google if you're interested, or read their forums. Earl's on....I'm off!

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

I bet I can find you numerous instances when it hasn't been. Lagging quotes, off-market quotes, exorbitant spreads, mysterious spikes. Some of those instances are documented complete with screen shots and in some cases video clips. Not to mention ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

How do you work out that he's a loser and will fail, what, because he quoted a post of yours from 8 months ago? I bet everyone who disagrees with you is a loser, right?

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

You seem fixated with spreads, and that is exactly what shops like Oanda rely on to attract the bulk of their business, inexperienced novice traders who only look at headline spreads, it's their ace sales pitch. Listen I don't really have the time ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

I thought you weren't going to respond to this thread again, but oh well, seeing as you have..... Where did I say one can't make money from trading with Oanda, in fact I said shops like Oanda have their uses, why do you think they have 7 and 8 ...

I think Oanda FXTrade is unreliable

That's something I hadn't really thought about and you're absolutely right, maybe that's what keeps the interest alive. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy everything about trading but the process itself can be a bit mundane, sometimes I think to ...
