I have been testing a system on demo and been averaging 3% return per month, so nothing spectacular. Maximum drawdown has been 14% but is usually around the 4% mark.
A few days ago I had a buy order set on AUD/USD and it opened 1 second before the AUD news release.
Price was 1.2 pips from hitting the buy order price so I assume the spread was widened before the news release which triggered my trade.
Do all Brokers widen spreads before news releases?
