A CMC Christmas

Engaged in a little Xmas trading, but was not aware that gegenspieler CMC Markets chose to do Christmas:



No heads up, and no service, no trading till December 26 ... noon!
No FX till December 28!? Feels like April 1 -- merry lesson!

Update I: Dec 26, 10AM CET

Jolly ride. Gold celebrated Christmas below 807 USD.



No word from CMC Markets yet ... but it's likely that the German trading times (their PDF file comes with Thursday's trading times) also apply to Austrian dumb money.

Final Update: Dec 26, 2:53PM CET

Can't believe it's not impossible to trade FX via CMC Markets today.



Sold my position (2 is a crowd) at 816.00. 15 liquidation warnings made me realize a lucky 70%.

The Latest Sucker on the Block's focus is now on CFD Gold and CFD Silver ... because Goldman Sachs and Co. said so.
