Initially it was good, but it was a shame I had a bad experience with this broker, when I traded long enough with this broker and made big profits I started to intervene with large slippage and spreads, I do not recommend this broker if you have a high profitable trading strategy. it's better to find another broker who is still honest and without intervention.
Slippage and spreads are part of trading, but if they occur systematically and only cause losses when the trader is making significant profits, it's wise to consider another broker. In trading, maintaining quality execution and fund security are just as important as having a profitable strategy.

Slippage is a serious problem for me. My worst experience was a margin call on my account due to huge slippage.

Slippage can be a serious problem, especially when the market moves rapidly or liquidity is thin. Many traders consider slippage to be a small difference of a few pips, but under certain circumstances, the impact can be significant and directly impact margins.

The stop loss value doesn't work when slippage occurs. This is what I experienced.

I think your experience is very likely to occur in conditions of high volatility. This doesn't mean stop-loss orders aren't working, but rather that market mechanisms cause executions at different prices.

The position closed far below my specified stop-loss price, but the take-profit price was always at the correct price.

As far as I know, technically, both stop-loss and take-profit orders can experience slippage. However, in practice, negative slippage is more common with stop-loss orders because it usually occurs during extreme market conditions.

I have experienced many times that stop loss orders are always disturbed by slippage, take profit orders never have problems with slippage

I think traders tend to be more sensitive to stop-loss slippage because it means a larger loss than planned. However, if a stop-loss is hit by positive slippage, it's often not noticed or considered normal.

Slippage conditions are indeed very annoying but this only happens when the news is broadcast

Slippage is most frequent and most noticeable during high-impact news releases, when volatility increases sharply and liquidity can become thin. In these conditions, orders are often executed at the next best price, rather than the requested price, making slippage difficult to avoid.

It's important to review the schedule of high-impact news before trading, especially to avoid the extreme volatility that often occurs during economic data releases such as interest rates, NFP, CPI, or central bank decisions.

For me personally, this is very important, I need to look at the news schedule before carrying out trading activities.

Checking the news schedule before trading isn't just an option, but a crucial habit for maintaining capital, emotional stability, and consistent trading results. This is a characteristic of traders who think long-term, not simply chasing short-term opportunities.
