Oanda is a toy, as many other user said, a lot of execution problem, especially during very active market, for e.g. today, 15 Oct 2010, after 0815 Barnanke give a speech, market become active and problem occur, they hold your trade for up to 10 seconds, and worst, at the most active time, It disconnect at all, after the market clam down, I can reconnect with a lost of about $20 dollar gold.
It is not a individual case, I experience disconnect often, I am sure that it is not my internet problem because I dun even have a single disconnect when I use IB.
In brief, trade as your own risk, when someone give them a "five star", I doubt "how frequent they trade?" as an active trader, I will close my account next Monday.
