    Is MT4 a scam?

    It is worse than a simple delay. If it was a delay, the price 50% would be worse, and 50% bettere. Instead when price is different form wanted level is 90% worse. It is driven to be only worse.

    Is MT4 a scam?

    What you say is correct but MT4 allows easily to build Expert Adbvisors. This is the reason for which many traders prefer it. And again, ususally this is not a great problem.

    Is MT4 a scam?

    It is clear you don't use MT4. With MT4 also with limit order the broker doesn't guarantee the price I set. If the price now is 105 I can put manually or with an EA a limit order at 100. This means that when the price on platform reaches 100 a market order starts and if the meantime the price...

    Is MT4 a scam?

    Maybe someone can help me to understand a specific technical problem with MT4 that is starting to be really annoying and I don't know how to deal with it. I use MT4 with this English broker which generally works well ETX Capital | Forex, spread betting and CFDs | Regulated by the FCA. I use an...

    ETX without rationality ?

    Surely, I am seeing but it is not so simple. I need a broker that offer bond and commodities in MT4 with small size. There is Oanda, but it does tricks on swap interest. There is LCG but has worse spreads. Economic operator would be rational. I bring them money they would ease me. In gneral I...

    ETX without rationality ?

    I cannot translate these phrases. What means "to fire the lot"? And can CEO be interested in a single client? They have thousands of clients, he will become mad. And why did they give 100 punds after you went away? Usually they give rewards to who arrives, not who leaves.

    ETX without rationality ?

    They could say it, but didn't. Have I to be a psychologisto to understand what they want? Esma requires 2 of 3 criteria. 2 possible criteria are securities > 500.000 work experience in leverage instruments. I showed both. What interest do they have do refuse professional qualification to the...

    ETX without rationality ?

    Please can anyone understand inexplicable behaviors? I am an old client of ETX. I always feel good with it. I am not a big client but also not so little. I put orders with minimum size but EVERY DAY there is an average of 30 executed orders. Recently I sent documents to be considered as...

    ETX leading the way around the ESMA ruling.

    Does anyone know what is happening inside ETX? I am an old client they are always good, they offer good instruments, with little size and low spread. But customer service is becoming inchomprensible. They read emails and don't answer. I rewrite, receive return receipt and none answers. And...

    Why does backwardation exist?

    This means that shorts are on far expiries. Substantially they have a contrary vision compared to that of sellers who don't sell because think price will go up. So backwardation is born from a differnt vision on future price. And another question. Are we still so dependant from crop cycle? I...

    Why does backwardation exist?

    Excuse the delay and thanks for answer. I read only today. I think to understand what you say but it is a description or a suggestion, not an explanation. The problem remains. In backwardation why sellers don't sell now at higher price? The good explanation is the first thing you said...

    Why does backwardation exist?

    Yes, you are right this can be a good rational explanation I am really interested in understanding what you say because for the first time I am finding logical argumnetation in few words. But I didn't understand this second part, also because I have to translate in italian technical concepts...

    Why does backwardation exist?

    Also your observations are correct but ath the beginning of my post i said "backwardation for LONG PERIODS". In 1-2 exiprations is it possible backwardation, for reasons you say: in example seller can't deliver next month becuase his store is far from the place of delivery; or products is...

    Why does backwardation exist?

    Does anyone understand why agricultural commodities fall for long periods in backwardation? Sugar in 2011, corn in 2012 .... The explanation often is: it is expected a price decreasing in future months or there is a low supply. But both these expalnations don't make sense. Assume that you are a...

    Lumber coming out of the darkness

    I am not interested in simple lumber price but in future term structure. I see now it is in contango and also last 2 years it was in contango, even if it has high prices. Instead, 3-4 years ago it was in backwardation also strong. It is strange, it would be a regular commodity with low volumes...
