HNY — Better late than never: Happy New Year ! We've been quiet for a few weeks. Did some deals, but we had a good year and did not want to risk too much. We lost pips in December, but thanks to very low leverage it did not cost too much. Year ...

Still short EUR JPY, though they look like they will be stopped out in a few hours. We went long EUR USD overnight, and just now we did our first deal in GBP USD since early September. Short time frame, short stop strategy has come back alive, and ...

Short EUR — We are short EUR JPY for hours now, but not much has happened. Same goes for the short EUR USD position. But overall these pairs seem to be gathering some downward momentum, so we are confident we wont be stopped out within the ...

Right you are, Fxtrader. Consistency has brought us some 3400 pips this year, so we can't complain. We are keeping our models away from our personal opinion on currencies. We always have an opinion, and often we get a contrary signal and have to go ...

Close buy EUR JPY — We took back our short EUR JPY at 11150 this morning. The pair was losing momentum and we saw some minor buy signals again. That was enough for us to close the position. Next thing you know its a 100 pips lower! Sometimes ...

Short EUR JPY — We went short EUR JPY a minute ago at 11127. Stop is at 11180. We should have re-opened this position when trading started some 10 hours ago, but some minor buy-signals prevented us from doing that. The "old" situation that ...

Weekend position — We took our short EUR JPY position back yesterday at about 20GMT. Weekend-events can cause gaps, and gaps do not fit in our models. Our profitability is partly based on keeping our stops nearby, at some 50 to 80 pips. Gaps ...

EUR JPY — We went short EUR JPY today, based on a short term model. Each model we trade has three different exits, and the target we set on this position is the one farthest away. Which one we take depends on the performance of the "exit" over ...

In brief, quantitative trading comes down down to trading based on numerical techniques. Aka model, robot, So its a computer model deciding when to take a position and what size. The human emotional-gut-feeling-fundamental-analysis is left out ...

Hi Andrew, Its easy to say you could read some books about it...but that is the simple truth. Check Amazon for QT and you will see whats for sale. To start with I would suggest "High probability trading strategies" from Robert Miner. Because that's ...

It's obvious we missed some trades too. There were moves, and I am sure some made money out of them. But most important to us is to stay in business. So we'd rather miss some good trades then entering into losing ones. JPY losing time could be over ...

Good timing for sure, Fxtrader. Well done. Its good to hear someone else stayed away from the yen too. Some made us think we were the only ones not trading the currency. We wrote it down earlier, our profit targets are a bit further out. And if a ...

EUR USD short paid off — Today we published some 300 pips on EUR USD. Our short term model went short yesterday morning. And by midnight our time we went short on a "long term" trade. Reasonably happy with the result, but looking at the ...

What to deal — The first 6 months of the year we were quite busy dealing GBP USD and EUR JPY, but ever since we came back from holiday in September the pairs have not performed the way we want to see. So we stick to EUR USD. This one keep just ...

Open buy EUR USD — We just took a long EUR USD position at 13971. Longer term model went long on this occasion. For us that means a position with a target further out, and not a position we will sit on for days and weeks. Mostly a 'long term' ...

Close buy EURUSD — We were stopped out of our short EUR USD at 13890, losing 33 pips. In this case the event (GDP Figures) did not work in our favour. Regards,

Open sell EUR USD — We just sold EUR USD at 13857, with a stop at 13890. Target is 13700. Maybe this answers your question, Paul. All events are discounted in our models. Including FOMC, NFP, you name it. We will certainly not close any ...

Strategy — Good day, We trade the major pairs, and focus on short term time frames. That can be anything from 15 minutes to 4 hours. A good entry is nice, but exit is more important. For each pair in each time frame we have three exit ...
