Broker is ignoring stop loss
I've lost 2 large trades because FXPRO ignored my stop loss settings. My trades were closed like 500 pips away!! And yes it was during the NFP, but it's not an excuse.
I've already emailed the customer service, just would like to know what are the chances to get my money back? Or what can I do if I can't negotiate with FXPRO?

As you can see the first trade's SL was already positive.
I can't believe this can happen.

First of all its not 500 pips it ls closer to 50 pips away. And during nfp you get gaping due to the nature of the quick market moves so I doubt you can get any money back.
Good luck

You should bring the issue to the regulatory body . FXPRO Australia is regulated by ASIC .
Often , the best trade is no trade at all
I guess 240Code is absolutely right. No regulation is giving protection against gaping markets.

that is the spread, two is buy at 114.678,114.692 and one is a sell at 115.117.
I know it is tough and you should change brokers straight away but spreads can widen to a huge amount which is why you get the difference in the trade executions. Your broker will tell you that was the only buy and sell price available because of NFP. Look at the time.... its 3 seconds after data comes out so that is why it is this high.
Good luck

No!
It's not the spread, both transactions are SELL.
Closing the BUY transactions = SELL
The SELL STOP was not executed however it shows what was the price at that time at this should have been applied to close my BUY orders.

look i am not saying they are right..... just there is no unlimited quantity at a certain level.
But because i am sure the want to prove that they can offer good liquidity in volatile markets, they might improve :-)
good luck

I dont think there's a way to get any money back in this case! They will say it is NFP and they cannot help. Its better not to trade or keep any open trades during NFP or similar!
Yes! with the right skill....its possible to make 40% a day in Forex.
