I currently have an open long position -17.7 pips with FinFX, anyone else?
I just added my Axitrader trade. It closed a bit latter than the others.
All my positions are closed.
I keep missing trades on my IBFX AU account. Still don’t know why.
Hi Daniel,
What was your entry price? If you got slipped on entry, that may explain why the trade is still open.
Richard….
Just so you know my IBFX AU account has traded 3 days in a row now. Today’s was only for 0.5 pips though.
richard, 1.30690 was the entry price, I think that’s correct, I got slipped on entry… Now I’m gonna keep it open until I make some profits
Hi Daniel,
That’s significant slippage. The problem with excessive slippage is that the closing take profit is further away, and that means trades stay open for longer which increases the chances of a full loss.
Hi Pete,
What IBFXAU server are you connected to?
My server name is “IBFXAU-MT4-IM01”. Perhaps that trade server isn’t as good as others.
Richard,
Just so you know my IBFX AU account missed all the trades as well.
That’s interesting Ling.
I definitely get a lot more trades on my US IBFX account.
Richard,
Any chance your poor IBFX AU performance corresponds with their acquisition by Trade Station?
FinFx: no trades
Richard…. My IBFX AU server is IBFXAU-MT4-IS02
So perhaps it’s the fact that its a different server. Might be worth a email to IBFX AU support.
Let me know what they say. (monitor your website every day)
Thanks Pete. Yes, it could well be the server I’m on.
Hi Mark,
I don’t think the poor performance on that account is due to Trade Station’s acquisition because my US IBFX account works fine.
It just seems the server my AU account is on misses some trades. I might see if I can get it changed. Perhaps the IM01 server is heavily loaded.
Hi Richard,
You’re probably right about it being a server issue. Thought there may have been a lack of communication and/or execution during the transition since you hadn’t had any prior problems.
AxiTrader(MammothVps)->4.3 pips
Daniel. I didn’t have any trade with FinFX yesterday. Hope you closed in profit.
activtrades +3.9
I’m in the US and I find that I cannot open an account with several of the better performing (according to Richard’s stats) brokers. I have an FXDD account and will be opening an IBFX account as well. Any suggestions on other US brokers? Thank you all.
John
hey guys,
I left my position open and modify the stop loss and top profit, thankfully today was good and it closed 1.3060 +20.1 pips…. lucky??? it could be more, but 20 pips is great!!!
also had a trade today with finfx, waiting for richard to open the thursday’s trades
I emailed IBFX AU asking them if it is possible to change my login server. And this is their reply:
Thank you for contacting IBFX with your questions. The server your account has been put on is assigned at the time the account is opened. At this time it is not possible to move your account to another server because we only have one server for mini accounts in our AU office. The other server has been set up for standard accounts. With that said, the execution, spreads, prices, and functionality of both servers is the same so switching servers would not provide any benefit.
HI Daniel,
No trades for me on Thursday. I just re-checked all of my accounts
Hi LIng,
That’s interesting. I’m on the mini server. So the standard account server may be perform better, despite what they’re saying officially.
How are you supposed to make money with 1 trade every other day if you are lucky that generates a whopping 2 pips on average???
Hi Kamran,
It’s because the win-rate is very high. Like all scalper strategies, Megadroid needs a high % win rate (> 85%) in order to be profitable overall, because the size of the losses (around 60 pips) are much larger than the profits (1 to 15 pips).
are u using MD on monday?
Yes, I always trade on Public Holidays. However RSM may disable trading. We’ll just have to wait and see.
The only time I disable Megadroid is the week between Christmas and New Year.
