Considering I had 50 pip stops, I found it a little weird (to say the least) that a trade would be stopped out within a matter of minutes. Barring news releases, price...

MT4 is a beautiful application, handicapped by it's lack of 10 minute and 2 hour charts. PLEASE correct this for final release!
