大家帮我看看travelex是不是front running了？

anvil

我对外汇不是特别了解，只有理论，没有实际trading。是这样的，一个朋友在做进出口小生意，上周五挂单买美金，buy usd@0.8215，周六的时候我帮他查，汇率是0.8236，应该是纽约市场的收盘价。但是朋友今天早上联系travelex，发现那单没有execute,travelex的解释是他们只把这单放在亚洲盘上，当天亚洲早盘最高到0.8211。但是我认为这里有问题，平时炒外汇，哪有指定某个市场的？外汇市场是全球市场阿，而且交易澳币不用专门到东京市场吧？澳币应该不是那里的主要交易货币阿。。。

大家帮我看看这是不是有问题？

１。travelex is front-running, or favors larger clients.

2. travelex is not techinically competent/diligent, so it failed to send the order to New York market

是不是这样呢？travelex这次交易是不是有dodgy的地方呢？朋友是小本生意，必须要斤斤计较，谢谢大家解答！

they do this all the time...

if u place an order with them, normally they will take some kind of margin on the order, 20 ticks is nothing to them....

also, do not listen to Travelex's bullsh*t. in Aus, normally they clear through NAB and trust me NAB will watch their orders 24 hrs...so no way their explanation can be right!

normally the rate u check is quoted by Reuters or Bloomberg, but they are not always right as price can hv extreme spikes which no one apart from those who conducted the deal can get that price!

heard a new company from a friend, try the following,
