This is SO typical with this broker! Brand new accounts have excellent execution in terms of their speed and fill prices yet soon after the account becomes profitable execution times slow DRASTICALLY! My execution times went from less than 500ms to well over 10,000ms. on every order. This happpened to ALL my profitable friends accounts too and there were many.
They are DEFINATELY using a plugin! Stay away from these theives, there are legitimate brokers out there but this isn't one of them.

I've seen only one other broker do this. I had to complain to the dealer to bring the execution back below 2,500 ms. Can XeM comment on this?

Dear LEXngton,
Our company prides itself on providing the best possible execution times and prices. Almost all of the orders executed within under 1 second, however during extremely high volatility (often experienced at times of important news releases) there are cases in which there may be some delay, up to several seconds because orders arrive in huge numbers and are placed in queue as the server executes them one by one. Our team works very hard in eliminating any delays, especially as we thrive in not rejecting any orders or giving any re-quotes.
XEMarkets (Trading Point) does not and has never used any type of virtual dealer. Please be informed that this plug-in is used only with instant execution (we provide market execution). As you may or may not know, the purpose of the virtual dealer is to delay the client's execution and provide re-quotes when deemed necessary.
Our clients receive market execution, not instant execution, and as such we are able to maintain our no re-quotes and no rejection policy. With Market Execution, it is implied that your order is filled at the best available market price. There are no re-quotes and a virtual dealer cannot be applied. It is the way in which the interbank market works and we believe it is the best execution model.
I've never seen any broker that uses market execution take 10 seconds to execute a price, unless there is a freeze in the platform, which affects everyone.

To be honest with I have never seen any order to take this much to be executed since I started working at XEMarkets (Trading Point). Morever, I have not seen any legitimate complaints about execution times that turned out to be true. As I have mentioned in my previous post, delays up to several seconds can happen on rare occasions if a trade is placed immediately after the release of high impact news (i.e. NFP).

Yea, yea, yea, sure and right. Never seen an order take this long to execute (10 seconds or longer) since you started working at TP? Never seen any legitimate complaints about these sorta execution times that turned out to be true? You must be a VERY new employee then!
Just look back on THIS thread at Pepster post numbers 171 and 181. You'll see the complaint, one which never got resolved. I know for a fact that Pepster wrote you a PM here at Forex Factory on April 26th detailing the complaint and provided their account number and name on account in the PM, again they received no PM or thread response. They also sent another detailed complaint to TP own customer service ([email protected]) and this time did receive a response but only one that was the typical "a number of factors affect forex trades such as market volatility, volume of trades and overall system availability, etc. etc." however the VERY slow and unacceptable execution times only worsened to the point that their account was not tradeable and all funds had to be withdrawn.
Now I cannot prove that TP doesn't have some kinda plugin to delay execution times when they want to do so but I can and will say again and again that for myself and my friends, once our accounts became profitable our execution times slowed DRASTICALLY, all of our accounts. They went from less 500ms or less on every trade to over 5000ms on every trade, sometimes well over 10,000ms! And the issue was always presented to TP without ever being resolved, on anyone's account.
Of course if you and TP are willing to stand by your word that execution times can and WILL be brought back to normal and they'd stay that way if the account becomes profitable once more I'm sure my buddy Pepster would re-deposit a small amount of $$$ and test if this would be so. Would you and TP make such a guarantee and pledge? If so let me know and I'll contact her to proceed. I would myself but since I'm residing in USA that's no longer a possibility. I must say that I loved trading with TP initially so if those conditions of the regular fast execution would return I'm quite sure she'd come back. So the offer is there for all to see, now waiting on an answer.

It is not always possible to monitor all posts on various forums and that's why we always encourage our clients not to just make forum posts, but also to contact the Customer Support department to receive prompt replies to their inquiries. In fact, your friend did receive a reply to her complaint from our Customer Support.

You forgot to mention that almost all of these trades were opened seconds after the high-impact news (on the news) and that your friend has made a substantial profit relative that was later successfully withdrawn after experiencing several delays. I have to agree with you that some of these orders took longer than usually to be executed but again I did say that this can happen on rare occasions. However, your claims that execution time of EVERY order went to over 5 seconds are misleading.

Execution times are and have always remained at the same superior level that the company is known for. The reason why on several occasions orders could have taken longer than usual to execute are stated above, so I am not going to repeat myself. I am sure that your friend can make a decision herself with regard to choosing with whom to trade without intermediaries making a show out of it.
Andrey I realize that it's not possible to monitor all posts here but in addition to making 2 posts an IM was also sent to you which included acct. number and name etc. and no reply was ever given.
I did mention that TP customer support was indeed written to and a reply was given however this reply seemed to me to be just the standard business reply I've seen companies send out many times. Basically there were alot of excuses for the VERY slow execution times but no information on them being remedied.
Yes I in fact did mention that her profitable trades were all honored (as they should have been as they were "Market Orders"). Didn't mention all money's made in those profitable trades were withdrawn successfully but shouldn't that should be expected from a reputable broker? I don't see the relevance anyway as I was discussing execution times only. Yep to your credit I should have mentioned the great majority of those trades were opened seconds after high impact news events as during those times a number of situations arise that make execution speeds slower than usual, granted. However in relation to the my last statement, execution speeds went from less than 500ms during the same economic news events to +10,000ms occasionally and yes once the slow execution speeds hit the account EVERY trade took MUCH longer to execute than they had before. EVERY trade took at least 3,000ms and the norm being 5,000ms ish. It was most certainly not a rare event rather an everytime one, even when liquidity was supposed to be good (i.e. no economic news events anywhere close to trades being opened and during various time periods throughout the day/night).
I had hoped to seen a reply from the TP representative here that they would be happy to assure my friend that if she deposited money into her account then quality execution times would be assured and continued even if the account became profitable. That's certainly not to much to ask for and if it were granted everyone here could see for themselves whether or not the suitable executions indeed occurred from her future posts. The offer is still on.
Lastly I don't mean to slur TP in any way, I'm only pointing out mine and others experiences with TP. Personally I would like nothing more than to be trading with TP once again when execution was top-notch and I'm sure Pepster would be as well. Everyone must make their own minds on which broker to trade with and the TP that I and other close friends initially joined up with had top-notch execution and other niceties such as fast withdrawal times, deposit incentives, etc. But the TP that showed up once myself and my close friends started becoming consistently profitable while trading the news was one that was unacceptable do to the consistently very slowwww execution times. Why those came about when they did everyone will have to make their own minds about.

Though i am not gonna call them thieves but it's till true.I opened a Demo account with Trading-point an year ago and every thing seemed to work in a perfect way and i was really happy with their performance.
The things got changed when i went to live account.Their order execution is really slow even in the normal market the order takes minimum 3 seconds to b executed,during the times of news releases they widen their spread but the orders are still executed after the 6 or 7 seconds which is ridiculous,even if we place pending orders before the release they are not executed at your determined price.A lot of slippage occurs sometimes i even noticed slippage upto 25 pips(even for pending orders) and after paying widening spreads your profit tends to be zero.I think the trading-point is the worst ever broker for the news traders.
I open and funded my account in 16 August 2012, right now it hosted in CNS UK VPS (it was hosted in CNS NYC VPS regarding TP in CNS latency chart) ,
Till now, there is no singgle trade executed on my live account, it;s parallel run with a TP demo acount at my home computer with exactly same setting and start equity that had several trade executed.
The problem is, there is a lot "Old tick" message (attached) in my live XEMarkets mt4 journal everyday, same problem wheter it hosted in NYC or UK CNS datacenter.
First time I contact XEMarkets regarding my old tick problem, the reply is "please rescan the MT4 server connection..",
Second time the reply is "please contactc your VPS Vendor..",
The last time I contact XEMarkets, they said they will send me an email ( that i never receive..) once they solve the problem..
I contact CNS either, they help me and did a latency test to XEMarkets, and moved my VPS from NYC to UK that latency is 2milliseconds (thanks to Martins, Martin Sharp and Joe Martins).
I think moving my VPS from NYC to UK should solve the problem, but it is not, I still got "Old tick" message in my XEMarkets mt4 journal and miss the trading opportunity...
any respond comment or advice will be appreciated...

Dear ong,
There are two possible reasons why the "old tick" message appears:
1. Slow connection but it cannot be the problem in your case because you have already move your VPS to the UK and the latency is minimal.
2. Your computer/vps clock do not match the MT4 platform time and this causes the platform to recognize some of the ticks as "old".
I can suggest you to verify the time of your systems and change it if does not match the platform time.
This error does not interfere with the functionality of EAs but ofcourse there are always a few exceptions. The other possible solution is to modify your EA to somehow disregard the "old tick message".
If none of the solutions work for you, please send me an email with your account number to [email protected].
I can not change the time of my VIrtual Machine, what i can do is change the timezone,
[ CNS: "NOTE: CNS Virtual Desktops are pre-configured in the Pacific time zone (our servers are in San Diego, California). The clock in your desktop is alredy "kept in sync" with the atomic clock, so you should not need to set the time. You CAN set the time zone of your desktop to match your own time zone.

Which time zone should i set my VPS to match XEMarket mt4 platform ?

I can verify the old tick bug on live acct....i see it in the journal occasionally. i'm at the nyc datacenter. I dont get this error too much with other brokers. The windows OS time should have nothing to do with it..... i have several different broker terminals open at any given time, running virtually 24/5.
My VPS time has been match to XEMarket platform time as your suggested, it does not work, these message still appear on my XEMarkets MT4 journal :
connect failed [No connection]
DataCenter connecting failed [2]
and lots of "old tick" message ( MT4 journal attached )
I have moved my vps datacenter, and i have matched the platform time
is there any posible solution to my problem ?

Dear ong,
Do you get the "old tick" messages when you are connecting to our server directly from your PC? Or you get them only when you are connected through a VPS?
