| | I nearly fainted this morning when I took a look at the Open positions page and I saw that one of the GBP/JPY Sell-To-Open limit orders had been filled at 126.XX, very far from the 128.XX that was set to, causing a $1000 losing position that took my breath away.
My first reaction was to close the position ASAP just in case got worse. A few minutes later I logged onto my broker site (MBTrading) to take a closer look at my account. Fortunately it seems that the position was indeed filled at 128.XX and not 126.XX as it was displayed in the "Autotrade/Open Positions" page. Actually the trade ended up making a very small profit instead of a $1000 lose.
My question now is, can anyone look into this problem so it doesn't happen again? I quite rely on this view to see what is going on with my trades.
Note: I didnt have any other GBP/JPY position open and I didn't place any maual trade directly with my broker.
These is the signals information extracted from the "Performance report" page which is quite wierd because shows a Buy-To-Open instead of a Sell-To-Close:

Hi,
There was a disconnection from MBT this morning and we didn't get all fills. The result was a duplicate entry order (which Sync corrected quickly) and inaccurate average fill price information for a short time. |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
