At the outset, I want to thank one and all for being an continuous
source of information and inspiration.
I hope to be of use to the
community some time. Until such time, I am a Net recipient of
information.
Some specific questions about MT4 and trading in general.
1. Is it possible for me to see the exact
time when I placed a trade request ? In my Open Trades as well as
Transaction History, rather than 15:45, can I find out if it was 15
Hours 45 Minutes 10 seconds or 45 seconds ? I have found my broker
filling me at the unfavorable end of the bar fairly consistently :-) by
delaying the fill.
2. On a general note, is there anything we can do
about such things or just accept it as part of the deal ?
3. I know we
are not supposed to be talking about the brokers on this forum but, Is
it that some of them out there are indeed famous for such strategies
:-). No matter how intelligent your EA is, Theirs is always one notch
up :-).
4. Is it possible for me to see what price a pending order was
targetted at ? Situation: You have a pending sell stop order at 1.5057
and 10 minutes later you notice that the pending sell stop order has
indeed become a sell order BUT at a price of 1.5039 ? When can it
happen ? Can you do anything about it ? Further, How do you prove to
someone / even yourself that you have been wronged ?
