High Volatility around Midnight
Please note that around the midnight in MT4 time, as in before and after the break time, low liquidity in the market can cause high volatility to market prices regularly.
This will cause slippage to your orders and sometimes your order can get rejected depending on the available liquidity in the market.
HotForex sends all orders to its liquidity providers, thus the slippage and order rejection are caused by the inter-bank market, but not HotForex itself.
If you like to avoid low quality of execution, then you may trade during normal trading hours with normal liquidity.
