Hi there,

is it just me or anybody else is having trading issues due to Coronavirus outbreak?
I hate such events; Brexit were messing with trades for a long time and Covid could be even worse...

What do you mean by issues? Are trades set ups failing or are brokers not opening / closing positions?

Same from me; the nature of market reacting differently! So, no way with general trading lots size!

The problem with coronavirus is not marginal.
About 3.5% of infected dies.
It is very infectious so you can get it easily.
Infected person might have no sign of infection and can spread the virus to manu other persons.
On the other hand there is no need to panic, you cant just stay home for next 3-10 years
