I'm closing my InterbankFX account as of TODAY.

At approximately 1:55 p.m. EST I moved my stop losses on 4 long NZD/JPY trades on my live account from 78.50 (all positions) to 78.80/81 when the market had just pierced through the 79.00 zone.

At exactly 1:59 (a few minutes later) I watched my chart plummet from just above 79.00 down to 78.79.

How obvious can we get?

I went to IBFX's online chat and spoke with Darryl, who admitted that the low bid price for that particular 1 hour bar was 78.88. (Read chat transcript, below)

I requested an explanation for why my stops were taken out, and after much waiting and "pulling charts", etc. Darryl "explained" that even though on the recorded accounting statement the trade was stopped out @ 1:59 hrs, the bars were actually "overlapping"... puh-leze!

I pulled charts from two other online charting services, neither of them showed a price anywhere near 78.79 for that hour bar.

I believe that contrary to IBFX's claims otherwise, that they do indeed have a dealing desk, and they target rare pairs to take out stoplosses...and it makes a nice excuse for them that the stops are taken out right at the last minute of the hour.

If someone can produce some evidence that NZDJPY was near that price at that time, I'll gladly recant this post, but in the transcript below you have the evidence right out of their own mouths.
