Hello traders,

I have just started trading again and opened an account with Optimus futures. My first contact with them was through a Skype with Matt a very helpful guy...sitting in a dock house with metal sheets on the roof top.... Nothing too sophisticated indeed and somewhat surprising for a brokerage house environment...
My first trade went very well, but since then I had five negative trades. But the slightly worrisome part is that for two of them, my stops were triggered to the exact cent... before the market went back up in the direction I wanted to trade... Could be coincidence...2 out of 5 is already a fair probability. I couldn't help thinking, well...this is bizarre. Almost felt like someone was trading against me, or some kind of algo.
Before I get too paranoid, I thought I should ask you guys if any of you had a similar experience with any broker and particularly with Optimus. Does anyone use them and has a view on it.
thanks for your comments.

There is already a review thread for Optimus. Your question should be posted following this link

Optimus Futures trading broker review If you have an account there, please share your experiences.

Besides, this is not off-topic.

Man, you are trading Futures (not Forex), the traded prices you can see on your charts and have nothing to do with your broker, the prices come from the exchange not from your broker
