New ETX

Well, thought I was short cable today and short eurusd but for some reason cable never triggerd. The broker email said I cancelled it? (new broker - etxcapital); haven't quite got to grips with placing orders etc yet? Why do brokers never offer an option to close out incrementaly? Why are they all so different - must find a new broker that offers limit orders at fractions of the opening price to better control risk!

So, eurusd spiked and took me out and cable was canx - not a great day for my £100 starting capital. :(
