SP dec futures have cleared all fib levels, next stop is the highs this would put FTSE at 5892

If there is very fast price movement on the data release does the order get executed at the limit order price or does the price tend to gap without the order being triggered ?

Its hard to compete with High Frequency Trading machines that receive and process the data releases within a millisecond.

True but I'm not competing to beat them just geting my slice

u get some slippage but the spread betting companies are not at fault they do the best they can
