maybe the developing contractors should put in some sort of stop-flag to disable things while the feed is delivering false data?
Development work isn't one of the things that's outsourced.

Make screenshots so you can prove stuff just in case. I don't think that it will be necessary: he's been generous before and it's clearly the sites fault that you can't close at a profit, which you should be able to.
I hope the screenshots above are prove enough? I really do not know what more screenshots are needed? Its all I got :-(

Well, I could still do this, but I have not done this with this position.
However I don't care to get rid of the position even without any profit, but CERTAINLY I do not take any loss, because that is really unjustified.
What should I do? Close the position with a loss? And claim the loss to Alberto? Or should I stay in and take the risk of a falling gold price?

I suggest you leave the position open and wait for Alberto, he's the only one who can actually fiddle with the system afaik. Make screenshots so you can prove stuff just in case. I don't think that it will be necessary: he's been generous before and it's clearly the sites fault that you can't close at a profit, which you should be able to.
Should the XAU fall under 1606, I'm confident he would liquidate your position without loss manually or reimburse you somehow.

If you can demonstrate that loss / missed profit was caused by bugs in the system Alberto will be happy to compensate you after the fact.
Here we go:My position (which I want to liquidate):
Current price of gold:
[pic removed, see above]
As you can see, when I want to liquidate my position I have a loss due the wrong price of the XAU/USD contract. This price is still 1604, while the actual price of gold is around 1612
Hope Alberto can correct this.
Thanks in advance
is it possible you opened this position just now taking advantage of the broken gold data feed? to be honest *cough*: that's what I did, hoping the feed will come back online before the price potentially drops again.
I think the gold feed is broken... maybe the developing contractors should put in some sort of stop-flag to disable things while the feed is delivering false data?

You have a point (in case you are right about a one man crew),
Alberto is helped by friends, outsourced contractors and consultants (that includes me), but he really is the only one directly involved.However,
some more information is very appreciated.
It is (my) real money on the table.
Profitable positions should be able to liquidate; even in a test environment.

It appears I am the only one testing this platform.
Till now I have none replies on my emails regarding issues.
Is it safe to liquidate my position without any loss?
Not sure how you reached this conclusion.Till now I have none replies on my emails regarding issues.

Your last two posts are about 1 hour apart, it's unrealistic to expect 24/7 live support from a 1-man crew.
Thanks!

as can be witnessed in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=88803.0;all and has been experienced by me via email, too, Alberto is usually not very responsive. So if you can manage: don't worry.

Hi,
Are there currently any other people (test) trading with bitdaytrade?
At this moment it is possible to buy contracts XAU/USD, but the price is not updating. ?
According to the FAQ the market should be open from 9 a.m. EST....
I have also reported this issue to support ([email protected])
Has anyone else the same experience?

What concerns you about
"the buffer" ?
[First off all: don't take this one hard, it is just a possible "bad" scenario, no harm intended! It is just a worry!]"the buffer" ?
How are customers protected in case you "disappear" (and take all the funds of the customers with you....)
In the real world brokers have a disclaimer and general terms which protects customers (and the broker itself) in some way.
So is there currently any disclaimer or general terms and are there any plans for it yet?
Thank you!

Hi,
I just have signed on to this test phase.
I have already asked you the following via your contact form. Because my question is maybe relevant to more people I share my post here, so you can publicly give your clarification on it:
I am still a bit worried about my risk when funding bitcoins to the account. Can you explain how the transferred funds are somehow safe in your hands? I have experience in trading with leverage products. I know quite a buffer is needed to withstand the volatility in the wrong direction. I hope my question to you is clear and I am looking forward to your answer. Thanks in advance!!

Hi there,
Thanks for your interest in our services. Your funds are safe to a
level with us because of the security practices in place at BDT. Such

all our exchanges account, processing withdrawal manually and storing

"the buffer" ?
Thank you
