This Trade Should Have Worked!

Remember my last bright idea about buying when the GBP/USD hit support at 1.7269? Well, it worked! Well, it should have worked. After my buy got triggered, the Cable fell to 1.7250 before finally reversing and going my way. Unfortunately, I got stopped out at 1.7250.

"That's not possible!", you say. "Your stop loss was at 1.7249!"

My point precisely. Is OANDA cheating me by triggering my stop 0.0001 before I told it to? Is this some sort of nefarious plot? Are the Forex stars aligning to my detriment?

I'm not sure. I intend to post a question on the OANDA forums to see if anyone else has had this problem.

Anyway, after my stop loss was triggered, the cable went berserk after lower than expected US ISM data at 10 AM EST. I could have picked up 20 pips and then some. So crumbles the Forex cookie. I'll be back for more.
