Mega, certainly see no evidence of cable having touched 1.778 in the last 24 hours. In fact, I have a high for yesterday as 1.7446.

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 07:57 - 5440 of 11056

klal,many thanks,i have just looked at BOM chart and they have a spike about 2.05 with a spike up yo 1.7790 which has taken a contract out,also i had another s&p contract taken out on friday,the bleedin market was not even open on friday,trust me i am going to give them f*****g s**t this am.

Mega...

klal - 18 Apr 2006 08:01 - 5441 of 11056

Mega, bit concerned that BOM are indulging in this kinda practice. Has this happened before? Do let us know the outcome of your discussion with them. Hope all goes well.

klal - 18 Apr 2006 08:05 - 5442 of 11056

Mega - yesterday's high was actually 1.7746 and not 1.7446 as I had indicated earlier. Apologies for the error - but still well below 1.7780.

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 08:06 - 5443 of 11056

klal,no this is the 1st time this has happened,and the outcome is still to early because they aint answered the phone yet,but trust me when i do get through they will remember me !!!

Mega..

Rick

I've got 1.7747 through eSignal currency feed and no untoward spikes, but the 6B M6 futures have a high of 1.7764. Maybe that is what they will argue, but it certainly wasn't 7780.

Cheers
Rob

Rob,many thanks for the info,still cannot get through,b*****ds :-(

Blimey, didn't expect to see that gap up on cable last night!

Looking at my hourlys again, I can see a definate uptrend for the last 4 weeks or so. It's now sitting just below my bullish resistance line. Will it bounce off or shoot through this line?

rpaco - 18 Apr 2006 11:39 - 5447 of 11056

I lost my saved settings on fxpowercharts about 10 days ago and spent half an hour setting them up and saving them again, (under a different filename) but the following day they were back (and no sign of the new filename saved). At the time I thought it was Bill Gates fault, but aparrently not.

rpaco - 18 Apr 2006 11:57 - 5448 of 11056

Mega you know that BOM have their own interpretation of the data and use a mixed data feed. Although they go on at length about filtering out spikes. I have found that they are often several pips different to fxpowercharts on fiber and cable. (the highest on fxpowerchart 5 min was 1.7747 at 15:55 BST) On Capital Spreads it was 1.7747 15:55 BST on the 1 min chart.

I use http://www.livecharts.co.uk/MarketCharts/futsee.php for the FTSE (also for live Gold and Brent prices) and again BOM are often different by 4 or more pips.

Best of luck they (BOM) have been very slow to reply to my queries.

rpaco - 18 Apr 2006 12:13 - 5449 of 11056

Just had a look at the tick chart on Capital spreads and at 02:17:01 this moring it reached 1.7729. I can send you a screenshot if you like.

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 12:16 - 5450 of 11056

rpaco,i aint a happy camper today thats for sure,i was happy using them till this weekend,but they also stopped me out on a s&p contract at 7.55 on a saturday night,me thinks there is something wrong !!!
At the moment i have 2 complaints in the pipeline via telephone and email,they are investigating and hope to get back to me later.

I will keep you posted.

Mega...

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 12:18 - 5451 of 11056

rpaco,yes please,i printed there chart off and its a a 60 pip jump !!!

rpaco - 18 Apr 2006 12:37 - 5452 of 11056

Ok just sent it to you sales@ address

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 12:41 - 5453 of 11056

Received it,thank you very much,more ammunition me thinks.

Rick...

klal - 18 Apr 2006 12:45 - 5454 of 11056

Really can't see how BOM can justify what they've done....beginning to feel pretty uncomfortable now. Just when I was thinking of taking their platform a bit more seriously :-(

klal - 18 Apr 2006 12:45 - 5455 of 11056

Mega, if you need a chart from yet another source, please let me know!

rpaco - 18 Apr 2006 12:53 - 5456 of 11056

Hi sorry jusrt re done my screenshot to make it clearer, now loka like 1.7732 was the peak at 2 ish this morning. Of course the huge spread they have introduced does not help.

Mega Bucks - 18 Apr 2006 12:57 - 5457 of 11056

Question,how do i get a screenshot from BOM ie the chart with the spike in it on to here please ???

klal - 18 Apr 2006 13:02 - 5458 of 11056

Mega, capture the screen and move it onto your website. Then use MAM's "Insert Image" facility to link to your image on your website.
