    Everything is auto fills. I've never once not gotten filled within 20 seconds with real money, and I trade some fairly illiquid pairs. You may want to re-evaluate your broker, this isn't stocks, you should fill right away.

    and you clearly don't have a clue what you're talking about. This version of JJ is actually being serious as he has been for the past 2 years posting about it.

    jj gets it. Algorithms ate up whatever inefficiencies existed in pretty much any market. Show me someone who calls himself a "trader" and I'll show you a clown.

    The markets are unbelievably efficient and tremendously priced right you cannot beat them

    Of course if you buy a stock or two and leave it forever you can make some money or have a top mutual fund and just leave it but anyone that thinks they like a stock, currency, commodity or option and going to make trades will get destroyed
