Morning guys,
Just woke up to see that IC Markets deliberately and blatantly manipulated one of my trades. THE ONLY trade that I had a stoploss set to protect the trade overnight.
A friend of mine had the same issue with IC Markets and also Eightcap.
With Eightcap it was worse, overnight USDJPY sell position with 15 lot and 1:500 leverage closed in loss like 70 pips. He had set his SL to 15 pips.
The candles were nowhere close to the level where the trade closed, neighter was there any gap that night.
He started to use virtual SL/TP and since then he rarely had issues. Very suspicious...
I have been using IC Markets in the past too, there were random spikes that took out my SL perfectly to the exact pip before it retraced.
Looked through several Tradingview charts and other sources to figgure out if the price actually went to the level where my stop loss was but of course, it hasn't...
