Sounds again logical. But I have seen uncorrelated pairs producing negative results in parallel for the same strategy more than often. All these theoretical aspects sound smart, but trust me - market is smarter. It is the same thing like analyzing market sessions, where "usually" the asian sessio...

Underwood76, it is nothing exceptional and i can confirm these slippage values as i encountered slippage up to 10 pips on my pending buystops as well.Nevertheless, i am still trading live with them, as you won't find these low spreads+commission costs somewhere else nowadays. So as long as these ...
