Hi,
My signal opened a Buy XAUUSD @ 1771.05 and closed @ 1772.80 for profit.
However, on my account it opened a Buy XAUUSD @1773.17 and closed @ 1772.79 for a loss.
No SL or TP was set on the order. I have a VPS on the account, my slippage is set high in the options. Looking at the Signal's slippage my Broker is not listed there.
So is this due to slippage? And if so why is it such a large discrepancy?
Help would be great cheers!

There's your answer, its called slippage.
Gold is not an easy instrument to copy and using a bad broker/server setup makes it even tougher.
