OMG!!!😲

The robots are dying a slow and agonising death. Long live manual trading!

I hardly find it easy. 76k on balance,but the equity is 35k what a novice in trading who is unable to place a stop loss.

Well, looks like the Squared Financial gold prices are completely out of sync with the real market.

Tonight, Squared Financial Gold Price spiked to 1249.65, even though FXPro never went lower than 1274 and ICMarkets never went lower than 1273.

A 25 point discrepancy, enough to kill anyone's margin.

So that's me out of the competition because Squared Financial's prices bear no resemblance to the real market. Better to find out on demo I guess 😡 rather than with real money.

Why the bar did not display the correct information of High Low price?
While my EA able to open order at some ghost price that not exist?
My equity turn negative so do I owe them money or this debt can be waive if in real account?

Oh MY GOD, what happen with the gold spread? Why bid 1249 and ask 1315 in this morning ? i can't believe this. I sell at 1280 and my account blow up because this spread

same here and never got the spike on any of the other charting software nor accounts looks like I wont be using squared for sure

I must admit it is very scary when a broker can and does manipulate prices but such a huge amount be it dummy or real, I will have to do some research on issues that others have had with live accounts with squared financial or I can just post mine on forums and let it be so so happy it wasn't real money I was using...no spike on fxcharts, no spike on gft, not spike on ava trade, no spike on alpari, no spike on fxcm, no spike on fx.com nor can I find a spike on any charts found on the internet will leave it for you all to make up your own minds as it is your money but well worth looking into before you open a real account and do your own research. I didn't expect to win but would have been nice to see where I ended up if it was a square competition...pun intended

yes you will own them money

some broker offer insurance

Well, I m glad this happened now and not on a real live account ... Seeing this Will definetly keep me from investing real money with this broker.
