Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the board. Wasn't this a premium board as well?
Been off my forex platform for a while.
So long in fact that Oanda changed to a new format AND started to charge for inactivity. Thank goodness it's if you're inactive for 12 months and they start charging 10 usd a month of no trading.
So, I been trading the last few days and noticed something painfully obvious about oanda and I think they have gotten worse.
First, their spreads are larger across the board. Second, they have to be the worst at working the book B against you. It is so obvious that they trade internally and you may never see the market except at the busiest times. Yes, I know that oanda and all of the platforms say they may trade against you, but jeez, can't they give it a rest?
Every single time I've placed a position, the platform instantly goes 10 pips against me and stays there and takes forever to return if no real trading is going on. They don't even try to hide it or give any time to make it look like a market. It's a shame as I can't afford their other packages and get hit with even larger spreads and house trading if I put in my own price. It's depressing. And with all the bullshit advertising such amazing profits with forex.
