FXCM Triggering Stop Orders

[reach4thelasers]

I've been day trading pretty small timeframes the last couple of days, and not only have I noticed price lurching into my stop orders, but an unrealistic amount of slippage for the time of day and quantities I'm dealing with.

I start strictly using simulated stop orders and things feel normal again. Am I paranoid or what? Have FXCM started increasing this behaviour since they got into serious debts with the SNB black swan event.

Hello,

That does sound odd. I have not heard any news related to FXCM changing the way they fill orders. Just to be sure we're not dealing with a platform issue, are you seeing the same kind of behavior using FXCM's platform? If not, perhaps other FXCM users can share their experiences to possibly confirm what you are seeing.
