Curious if anyone got a 40 cent spike down on silver to 17.05 this morning or is my broker playing games? This happened in less than one second.
My charts show lows of - spot 17.444 - futures 17.450

Cascading bearish candles but no spikes in any case.

Mine didn't go that low. It went somewhere to 17.439, and at the moment it's trading around 17.530.
But price can be different with your broker.

Thanks DrHouse and SunTrader. I am going to be sending an email to my broker about this and request a refund for the possible feed error on an open trade at the time. Can anyone confirm if they saw this spike on their chart based on the chart below? I happened to be watching the chart at the time and it literally did this in a fraction of a second, then rebounded back up a couple minutes later. It occurred at 17:26 server time.

I am sorry to say that, but they will say a 1000 reasons not to refund you. But anyways, that's a big move and you have to fight for it or change the broker!

I had a similar situation the other they, when there was a big news and I had a buy stop at 1260, and the opened it at 1265(the top for couple of days)! So I wrote them email asking how come this never happened before and now they did it, and they told me that because of the volatility and major news and all that crap!
So hopefully your case will be different, but I don't believe it, because they are all the same.

Good luck

Thanks House. I sent an email. Its not a earth shattering loss as I have a small account with them. I know there is no way this price action occurred (there was no major news events at the time and I don't open trades during such times), so I will see what they have to say. I of course had a stop loss at 17.20 and slipped to 17.15 because of the move.

Forex brokers maybe, not futures brokers.

GOLD 8H Chart:

Good to see you made a timely entry on GOLD.
After missing the Long entry last Monday,
I turned my attention to the DOW and FTSE100.
Now Short FTSE100 at 7047.
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...81#post9211281
Both currently getting hammered,
which as you say should be good for GOLD.
I will have to wait till GOLD Waves -i- and -ii- are complete,
and then trade the money Wave -iii- Long.
Cheers, U2

Yes, you can relax. BE = Free Trading. [your only burning time, and it's free!]
Success = Method, Timing, Boundaries and Time [Patience]
All the hard work has been done.
You took it as a longer term trade,
so you have to ride out the corrections.

GOLD 4H Chart:
Turned up nicely after a Wave iv,
so Wave v underway.
[I'm BE on my FTSE, so free trading]

What market is that with a price of 1251.33? Gold trade in the 1260's all day ... and night.

Anyway once correction is over downtrend most likely will resume.
