What is a stale price?

You can do it with any SB company if you press the Close Button on the ticket.

The record above was with a normal account (1 Spread) To us scalping is taking Anywhere from 1 - 6 points profit, cutting trades that go against more then 1 point. (Short time) start off with £1, compound upto £49, takes about 4 - 7 trades correct trades to compound to £49, We didn't trade...

Thank you, That's what I wanted to know.

We are talking about Spread betting here based on their quotes right?

How about you stop adopting the condescending tone, You mention going to a "Dummy account" for two weeks, as if that will explain the difference... I know about Stop order, Limit orders. However That wasn't the question. If I had a limit at 6000, and the price Jumps from 5995 to 6005 in ONE...

They said to us 100 Trades a day maximum (50 Entries, 50 Exits). Had to last 1 minute , wasn't allow close the trade near the open, evidently we lost our platinum benefits.

After Losing our (My brother and I) platinum account (Downgraded to normal) for scalping. Record: 21/10/2011 Deposit £100 (Deposit) 02/11/2011 Refund £-15,480.52 (Withdrawal; Successful) Since then we have been on "Dealer Referral" and have had all trades rejected. That's from £100 -> £15,000...

Why are they different? If I was to enter without a stop or limit and manually add orders, I could get slippage on their entry execution, what's the difference here?

Hey Guys, Me again, I've been attempting to trade with IG Index and have noticed their weird stop loss execution. If the stop loss is triggered with a small jump over they leave the loss ride until the next tick in favour, This has happened to 25~33% of my trades. This data is an exact replica...

I am not worried about finspreads at all, I was querying about SB's in general regarding my question about them trying to not paying out. I won't be trading with finspreads again purely because of how hard it was get correct entries, I only was with them because I remembered I had an account...

That's a bit concerning, by "need to prove something", what exactly is there to prove which would give them an excuse not to pay?

What I mean is, If my Finspreads had £10,000 start instead of £100 initial investment, and I managed to do the same return (hypothetically speaking), would they pay out the £120,000 or would they try find a reason not to pay it.

If I was to start with a £10,000 initial investment, and I reproduced these results with another SB company, What would the chances be of me withdrawing the Profits, or would they just decline my withdrawal?

That is what I wanted to do (Although I doubt I will be as successful as that again), But if I do I would only get closed down by the next company I go to, Which begs the question how much will a company let you win a weak... E.G £500 or 30% of your Investment.
