If you're tired of getting OFF QUOTES or INVALID PRICE, then use a Script or EA to place your trades for you. You may still get errors, but not nearly as often.
Since FXCM uses 5-digit pricing (fractional pips), every 10 points on the Maximum Deviation is equivalent to one pip. If you adjust your Max Dev to 30, that would equate to price range of 3 pips.
Please let me know if you have any further questions about this.
Thanks,
Jason
I don't understand.. my friend is on a live account and he can't close any positions..the price is now going against him.. just curious.. here are the message and he set the default deviation to 30 pips. :o

Ok guys please stop crying. It is only DEMO, and none of us were going to win it anyway. So now that most of your dreams of having a real account is now gone, let us focus on regular trading. Considering joinning this PAMM.... 5% a day keeps the 9 to 5 away.

How come open and close trade also pay comms? 2x comms?😲
Hi Retronite,
While you're right that the commission is charged once when you open and again when you close, your total transaction cost with FXCM's new pricing is still lower than with the old model, since you're trading on raw FX spreads with no markups added to the spread. See the examples below.

You might also want to watch this video for further clarification on how this new raw FX spread pricing works:

I apologize for the tech issues you have faced this past week. There has been a huge level of interest in FXCM's new pricing, so we are implementing solutions this weekend to balance this increased load across our demo servers. As a result, you should see greatly improved performance on the demo server being used for this trading contest going forward.

Hahahahaha all you contestant are making me laugh because you are all acting like a novice in this game. There is a trick am using which I will not post here so that the admin don't start trying to play smart. I am opening and closing my trade just like a piece of cake. Just send me a mail to ajani dot sunday49 at g mail dot com with the subject trick and I will tell you how am getting it done. Holllaaaa
