Hello folks. Been lurking for a while and it's absorbing stuff.
My question is probably more to anyone who has been using any given execution only platform
for quite a while. It is this- How real is this idea of ruthless/dodgy stop hunting on a day to day
basis, and is it a real problem or blown out of proportion?
I went to the FXCM seminar a couple of Saturdays ago, and they were emphasising all kinds of things, mainly how they had better execution than any rival and that their guaranteed stop losses
never slip. The crowd were impressed but the debate here has put a different spin on their angle. Are they more interested in your stops than in seeing you succeed?
Particularly interested in any longterm ACM or GFT users to comment as these are the two I'm considering as alternatives to my FXCM demo account. Cheers!
