If you put your stops in obvious places that all beginning traders are taught to do then it is easy pickings for larger traders. Even though I did believe that brokers stop hunted, if you think about it all brokers are in the business to get your business and keep your business. They make a killing with spreads, commissions, bla bla bla. Larger traders are smart and know to buy and sell at certain points to move price to take out your stops. Price differences are different because brokers all have their certain bank feeds that give them the price that these bank providers are showing. I just think with size and everything thats going on with the currency market that its impossible for brokers to worry about stop hunting. And its even not in their best interest.
