Is this normal for OANDA or anyone else to do?

ps.....someone was FURIOUS on the OANDA forum for being stopped out when the spread spiked
A stoploss of 10-20 is not good...unless you are trading when there is a lot of volitility in one direction. And you should close your positions out on Friday, even if its a loss.
