    quote I know what you are saying here, however it had been the negative equity which got people? Regardless of how many accounts you have, it wouldn't blow up only that one account as it might enter negative equity that could require the amount from all the others you have?
    Only certain brokers went after individuals negative equity my broker(s) forgave the adverse balances. Allowed the magnitude of the occasion, however, the broker who did precisely the ideal thing which is stuff happened that is beyond our control were not going to punish you for it. Other brokers simply to much for them to take the strike rather than a broker that will be in my book, it just shows their interests superseded mine, and when push comes to shove they will push me, so get out of the situation before it even erupts. FXCM for example isn't going to have the ability to pull out of the situation they are in, reason being Forex is a niche market and you have made a big enough splash to scare everyone away from their approaches and there's loads of brokers who proved themselves gaining hope is hard losing it is extremely simple.

    quote Besides, you aren't guilty under the legislation, since (once again) you have not signed anything like - I will pay negative equilibrium Do not you agree?
    The risk disclosure clearly states losses can exceed your first deposit . .infact its on pretty much every single page you ever look at on their websites. You're unless otherwise said by law required to cover it, that is what I've read

    I would be delighted to meet somebody who has an ideal solution for such a situation. Slippages always occur and if somebody has a perfect answer on how best to completely prevent them, then I would be delighted to listen to it. Fortunately I did not get struck from the EURCHF crash, but you never know when a similar one would pounce.

    Was it just coincidental you didn't get hit?
    Or did you have a reason for not trading CHF?

    I have not noticed that until the January crash.

    Hi All,

    Looking back in the news events on January 15th, 2015 here on cliqforex would have revealed that:



    At 9:30 there was high effect news signaled to occur effecting CHF pairs.

    . .Does this imply that by not investing in medium/high effect news events, things like this might be efficiently avoided?

    Honestly, I think is juts about both. I chose to stay from CHF late last year then surprise Gold Bullion judgment. But I might have easily gotten back at the beginning of the year, but I didn't.

    FXCM produced a video of precisely what occurred in the wreck and how it influenced them and their clients. Worth a watch!

    Hi all, Starting to get deep into trading and looking at moving from demo to actual money. The single biggest worry I have right now is slippage. Seeing the EURCHF crash with individuals having slippage of over 2000 pips I am truly scared by it. How can a trader expect to exchange with the risk of unannounced news occasions not just wiping their accounts, but placing them into severe debt? Should I look for ensured stops? Is there any sort of prevention someone can make for these occasions? (I thought it was unpredicted) Hope to hear your thoughts,...
    Time established risk management. Or - event risk increases. There are. You are looking at 'this' commerce to perform as you anticipate, within a reasonable amount of time - if not, maybe you've picked a bad prospect. You want chance to be the cherry on top

    Risk is part of trading, and always is. I hate to be cliché, but no risk means no reward.
