"FT’s report highlights that sources with knowledge of the matter said that a particular trader placed multiple sell orders on the GBP/USD market. Throughout a very intensive time on the market, the trader was described as “panicked” by one of the London-based newspaper’s sources." Wonder how big those orders were.

"The Bank of England on its part has outlined “human error” and/or a “poorly calibrated execution algorithm." Exactly why I would never use anythibg to automate my trading. Remember the crash in 2010 thanks in part to HFT. Machines can and will always break. If Im gonna lose my account Im doing it myself, haha.

I would rather distinguish robot trading from automate trading. Part of my trades have automation like partial tp, move sl if next order fill, basket tp and sl and more... automation can also secure our manual trading.


My apologizies. That I can understand. But just in general the world is way to dependent and machine ran. Just look at the hacking news stories or yahoo breach. Nothing is safe that is online. But that's just my opinion.

Gotta say this chart makes me happy and helps with trusting in angles. The forks were already drew. Then ontop of that you had a megaphone marked 1-5 for the swings. Then exited at the angle/horz crossing. Looking for price to pop up, find resistance and then continue down.

Thanks for sharing your realtime trading charts...
V8 sounds like generous person.

I use multiple brokers. Some of which no longer accept us clients. But I was looking at trying Gains and IB's larger size accounts they offer, plus LMAX. I will post how I like them.

V8 is the nicest and most generous person ever. But he is also very calculating and ruthless. He paid for my schooling cuz I was going into law (his own personal defense lawyer) and he gets a nice cut of my trading profits. I actually kind of feel bad, cuz before I came around he had planned on funding a member on Kreslik with a 6 figure account and have them make a zero.

But his favorite charities are St. Jude and Make a Wish Foundation. My final test before I can trade my money is to take a 100 account and add 3 zeros to it. His thought is that trading changes when your trading your own money and not being coached by someone. Also that money is strictly donated (hence why I challeneged John S.).

But onanda, gain, IB or any US broker should be ok until you start playing with bigger lots. Look at DC's thread he trades's up to 10 lot's on a trade from what I have seen. Alaismith seems to make consistent gains with who ever is his broker. Same with TRO and westcountry.

I think we might be in the "Golden Age" of retail forex brokers. Were they are actually pretty honest cuz they are trying to out do each other and get other companies traders. The 2 red flags for me would be if they reject your trade (especially a market order) and/or making a extreme spread (think 10-100 pips) just to clear SL or to stop you from getting into a trade.

The broker I use (offers spread betting account type on ECN -- FCA regulated, based in London, deals with many institutional clients) charges a round trip commission of $50 per a trade size of 1 million irrespective of base currency for USD denominated accounts, if your traded volume is above 25 M per month.

If you are interested, let me know, and I will give you the name of the broker. They don't spend monies on marketing adverts, just a word of mouth :wink:
