Disliked{quote} My opinion, for what it's worth, is that if you have still been trading on the long side of USD/JPY whilst it has dropped 800 points, you aren't really paying enough attention to the intermediate daily trends ( if you are just making an observation, that's a different matter). I think it is good that you are asking questions of yourself and the markets, and I believe that a little obsession is a good thing. Not many people become great at something unless they are obsessed with it to a certain degree. The only thing you need to watch is...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hey ukmanthailan, Thanks for the reply. I'm not trading long USD/JPY for that very reason, but was rather looking for a discussion about what was going on, weather you think trend will continue, is it a pull back, is it some sort of intervention (USD dropped against all majors), etc. I know no-one can see the future, just wanted to hear what people were thinking on the matter. Will keep an eye on that obsession. But as I said before, things are coming along fine (so far)Ignored
DislikedWell, I'm sure that interbank dealers know about this sort of thing way before we do so I'm not sure what the value of such information is as far as what you are trading today is concerned. However, if you try to follow fundamentals you may begin to spot news items that point the way to possible changes in market conditions in the future.

For example, figures for foreign purchases of...Ignored

DislikedI'm just going to express a few things here that I feel might be limiting my trading with this MO. Maybe you have similar experiences. Its mostly to help me put it into words and analyze my own trading mind. 1) I find myself missing out on some BIG moves (and A LOT of $$) because I get spooked and exit my attacks too early. The problem is when I have many troops in play I become hyper aware of the fact that if price was to turn on me I would be absolutly screwed. Therefore I take profits quick, real quick. I time my entries well enough and price...Ignored

Disliked{quote} This is only my personal preference and what I feel comfortable with. I want to make my money from my attacks, I can quickly get my exposure up if I need to but like to have the flexibility of multiple positions etc. Just as an example as I know it may seem small, of how I feel comfortable doing it. I would quickly build my position up to 0.10. Perhaps something like 0.03,0.03,0.06. From there If I felt things were going my way I would quickly want to get up to 0.20 then to 0.40 up to a maximum exposure of 1.00. I want to be able to start...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Ah, OK. I thought you meant 3 micro lots was your full exposure lol. 0.3 leverage would make it very hard work. Cheers!Ignored
