Thread: Is my broker displaying a bad tick?

    That is in addition to the previous post.

    The previous article was transferred....why??? This seems to relate to choosing a broker. Correct me if I'm mistaken.

    Three brokers show about precisely the same price. FXDD indies a spike 23 pips or so lower then everybody else. This is where it gets interesting. Talked to another broker today. He sent me his fxdd chart for the same period of time. It is different for the identical candle. His chart is the lowest one. His candle has a white arrow over it. My chart is the top one. My candle would be to the remaining red verticle. Why would there be two different feeds from precisely the same broker? His chart shows roughly the same as the other two brokers.

    Notice his chart is different....check that your FXDD charts. FXDD knows about this. They stated there was a bank problem and they corrected it....it's still on the feed. 12 hours afterwards. Why would it be a bank problem if some folks had a good candle and a number of individuals not.

    You come to your own conclusion as to utilizing FXDD.

    FXDD is a market maker, what do you anticipate?

    Not everyone understands. There is a lot of market makers. Not all are bad. However all of them have their thing. Adding the ECN's.

    You will find brokers using FXDD. This is not about helping you....you already know. There are a lot of folks using FXDD. The need stopped out. FXDD said the people were refunded by them. Automatically. Was not that nice of them? It's always interesting to keep 3 brokers up in precisely the same time. Even to check the ECN's. I shrink them down. . .bring up them from time to time.

    FXDD did it again on E/J in 00:47...9/29/2011. . .look at 1 minute chart.

    Spike of about 17 pips....

    Two other brokers....about 4 pips.

    Volatility is a bad excuse when your platform is the only one that's volatile.
