My trading system requires precise prices for open, close, low and high but it is really troublesome when each broker gives different ticks. I know that's the nature of the FX market as each broker uses different liquid providers and also the makeup spreads of the broker but it feels really pissed when you won in one broker but then lost in another broker because the price did not hit the TF on the other broker.
It also freaks me out when the tick closes above a level on one broker's chart but below that level on another broker's chart.
Important lesson learned today: Always triple check with at least 3 brokers for the price action and always give at least 2 pips errors for the take profit and entry levels.
Sorry everybody about the rant, I just lost 3 trades in a row because the price was 5 points from my TF then bounced back to hit Stop.
