  • FOMC Statement

    From federalreserve.gov

    Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in December suggests that growth in economic activity paused in recent months, in large part because of weather-related disruptions and other transitory factors. Employment has continued to expand at a moderate pace but the unemployment rate remains elevated. Household spending and business fixed investment advanced, and the housing sector has shown further improvement. Inflation has been running somewhat below the Committee’s longer-run objective, apart from temporary variations that largely reflect fluctuations in energy prices. Longer-term ... (full story)

To support continued progress toward maximum employment and price stability, the Committee expects that a highly accommodative stance of monetary policy will remain appropriate for a considerable time after the asset purchase program ends and the economic recovery strengthens => EU may up

Johahky7 i know you gave me good advice in the past and thanks for that.
Nature is scary yea.

1. Consumer spending. Spending rose at a 2.2% annual rate, led by the largest increase in purchases of durable goods in two years.

2. Business investment. Capital spending rose at an 8.4% rate, spending on equipment and software increased at a 12.5%

3. Home building. Home construction grew at a 15.3% annual pace. Home building added 0.4 percentage points to growth in the quarter.

More than enough reason to short now.
Confusion central as usual further compounded by wishing to trade short-term (trends define direction for > than a day or a few hours on some piece of crap news or release and cannot be guessed at by reading the entrails of dead animals i.e." fundamentals" aka voodoo). Very sure that all those who claim to be trading on that basis remain and will remain net losers in this market. What a laugh.

BTW: We did get to 1.35 despite all the crap sayers and the idiotic explanations of the crowed (aka the mob and their even more ignorant "soothsayers" - BIS followers, follow the big boys crowed, etc and other such daft ducks).

Do your analysis - use mean reversion and ignore the news and crap fundamentals - learn to read and trade the trend - it is dead simple.

Did the yen collapse over the past 3/4 months due to technical issues or fundamental central policy decisions? Did the DJIA rise at the end of December due to the fundamental decisions made by the USA govt? Why has the kiwi risen sharply offering up a decent opportunity for intra-day traders? Could it be due to a fundamental decision?

110% technical -10% fundamental. News are cover-ups. Media wants you to know what they want you to know. All the movements fixed 3-4 months earlier before it moves. Global economy is controlled by selected few for thousands of years. Nothing changed and will never change till end of days.

Look at every central bank's statement. It changes every week. Some changes daily and some monthly. Ex: last month was because of employment, last week was because of housing, today its all about the weather. Next week its all about Euro.
Even 9-11 was a setup. What else there is to fundamental ? World war 3 ? Nibiru colided with earth ? End of world ? or the return of Anunaki ?

I dont posts much. Sometimes i do a quick post as guest and off to chart (something like post 44), sit around for quick cash and set next day trade direction. I dont recall having more than 50 total trades a month. Most of the time 20-30 trades unless my technical not showing anything solid ill farm or when market is dead for the whole week. (Iam trading silver. 30 pips high-low daily = dead market).

Add on : look at post 41. Open a clean chart. Set one fibo with all those numbers on W1 frame last year's high and low and color it red. Then Set another fibo on H4 frame with last month's high-low. Now look at your chart and tell me if its not predictable. Should you need to farm small pips, do the same on yesterday's high-low

lol.

User discretion apply. Heres an example :

I prefer to trade with candlestick. It looks pretty on my chart. Every 30 mins, once the candle completed, I'll have my direction for next movement. Same goes with 1 hour chart (candle), weekly, monthly or annually chart. The only differences is i made my profit possibly in the next 30 min candle or sometimes it takes longer. Ive my own support and resistance for every time frame. In 30 mins frame its much closer compare to monthly chart.
If you have your direction locked long on weekly chart for 300 pips for example, It might takes 1 hour to reach there or 1 month or even 6 months. Now why make 300 pips in 6 months when you can make them in 1week or 1 day if ur pro.

Take a look at last week EU chart.
Entry .3300 tp .3450 = 150pips 1 week (H4 chart)
Entry exit every 30mins chart = +/- 500-700 pips/week (m30 and below)

Choice is always yours depends on your skill and capital. You can scalp, day trade, or range trade. From m1 for pro to MN for those with huge capital.

+1. Nice to know iam not alone.

Been trading almost 10 years now when silver was below $10 lol. Active since 2003-2004 and full time since 2008. Just sharing my simple technique. I dont need to sound rhetoric or pontificate but going back to basics seems to be the best way to earn. All the fundamental nonsenses killing my dopamine neurons.

Anyone asked me the best strategy to trade, my answer will always be HIT and RUN.
Nothing is certain and no indicator ever created which will tell you where the market is heading and would never be one. If you need something simple and effective, go back to basic. FIBO seems to be the best for me. Post #49 explains how to use it. Everything else is experience.

Any time frame actually. Fibo retracement. If you have huge capital, go on weekly chart. Not sure ur trading contract size tho (mine min is 20 lots and max 100 lots silver 1:100 leverage. Most of the time 50 lots. 20 lots, 1 pip = $100). If you are trading with capital of $10,000 and each contract size is 0.1 lot or max 1 lot then theres no issue at all. I personally suggest day trading H1 or M30 chart.

I dont see why 100 lots is an issue. It all depends on broker. I used to trade with GCI but they sux big time in term of spread and server uptime. Now iam with Insta.
1 lot = market price X 5 X volume + spread. Fixed spread 4 pips (silver)
if Market price 32.00, then 32 X 5 X lot size.
100 lots = 32 x 5 x 100 + spread = $18,000 margin. ( 1pips = $500)
If you know what you are doing, this is not an issue at all. ive enough margin for 1000 lots. ( entered yesterday silver 32.10 short (post #44) 50 lots keeping it till friday). Today short 50 lots entry 31.97 closed at 31.63 (fibo). (30pips profit). Iam done for the day.

What a laugh - the difference is that sentiment is not firm (read fractal structures are not stable) in short spaces of time (because obviously we have near random flows within such time bands) and that means you are really, really gambling at m1, m5 etc unless you have a machine which obviously the retail sort have no money to buy or run. A lot of the comments above btw (including from some people I have known some time here) really make me laugh - just because we do not show live trades does not mean we should lie to others - folks here are smart enough to know what is possible and what is highly unlikely. Funny what folks do and say to keep the illusion of success alive when we know it takes a very special kind just to keep above water in this business.

PS: firm also = clear enough to rationally risk the kind of money claimed by some on a sustainable scale. Statistically it is not doable so newbies beware of these claimants most are as empty as the proverbial barrel - spend time to gain the edge and short-termish styles are by definition risky - so work harder and smarter to shame these jokers rather than listen to them - anyone can claim anything.
Well given the absolute, (not worth debating against), fact that only fundamentals and news events move the markets then yes, they do help.

For sure you'll get rejections off the 200MA, or a blast through, similarly the constants that are levels of resistance and support are incredibly useful given that's where institutions feed, but nothing replaces fundamental analysis were FX is concerned, it's everything.

Yet I can tell you where price is headed without so much as reading a line in a year of anything fundamental or news - that you cannot get your head around that is the problem (because that was put there when you where born into trading - by all the after market in the business - trainers, financial journalists, scammers, brokers, etc). These people found a way to live off of you and got you convinced with "logic" - yet the day you break the mold you start to see the "secret " of trading and then you start working (as I am now) to really start trading.
1.36 FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes 1.36 kiddo after your 1 year++ senseless rotating monitor trading skills! Question is - did you long or are you submerged in a big yellow submarine senorita shorting while shouting the opposite??
If currency war had not been waged by Bank of Joints, still would say fundamentals + sentiments still valid and it will always be valid for me though following the price action of the trend is the better bet.

End of the day, each and every traders have their own style of trading. I have a freedom to choice of how I trade, if I lose then a lesson learnt, otherwise learning stuffs everyday. I don't force others to trade the way I trade nor dumb down everyone else - its rather silly that way really.

Anyway, Bank of Joints still have quite a bit to burn before their way to hell - even the big shots (not retail bitching here) claimed it's almost a one way ticket to paradise fall. Anyone care to term what Bank of Joint's monetary policy classed as? Fundamental, sentiment or simply price action or manipulation? LOL

If manipulation, what category does it falls under then??????? Care to reply anyone.

If there is no manipulation but just pure market price action why are the fking news all over the world discussing about Bank of Joints policy against Korean's? Come on I have enough of some crap we have here sometime. Rather then helping one another, it's simply bitching that "I'm better than anyone of you stupid twats attitude". That goes to you 1.36kiddo mima and the buddy traders in the likes of you.

Well given the absolute, (not worth debating against), fact that only fundamentals and news events move the markets.

Explains everything.

1. Just like if you know the scientific and medical fact of coca-cola/pepsi, then you'll know how bad they are but, because of the constant advertisement (by seconds if you may) it becomes your favorite beverage.


2. Since its absolute (according to you) only fundamental moves the market, doesnt that means trading daily or by the hour of every news is the best way to go ? since they changed every day/week/month ? or you are telling us jobless figure will remail -38000 every week for the next 100 years ?

Gotta say on the scale of 1-100 for messed up thinking you're at least 1,000.
Thanks. Opinion is subjective. Each entitle to one. Sometimes, to deliver effective messaege, you need to speak the same language as of your listeners.

No its not... actually you're the exact opposite of right because of spread
All i can say is choose your broker. Some offers fixed spread, Some from as low as 0 spread. Mostly at 2-3 spread for currencies. Some fluctuate based on trading volume.

What works for me may not work for others.
This. Noobs stay away from this technique. Its not for everyone but then theres no harm to try something new. Free demo account available from almost every other broker. Test them there. Once you really understand then apply on you real trade. You always have a choice to choose.

Iam a day trader and will remain day trader forever. Only keep 1-2 trades over couple of days if my technical is certain of market direction.

See you guys next week on Draghi. Like i said, the only news i look at is FOMC, Ben, ECB and Draghi. Others pretty much nonsenses. These 4 changes market direction every single time without fail.

** Happy weekend **

LOL - I was more polite earlier but since you mention it buddy. Yes its not for noobs!!!

My theory is quite simple, patience and trade on the RS lines on my chart. Trade 10-20pips at each R or S line with 20x is doable - for me far better than sitting on my butt whole day.

Just closed a 15pips short 16x on a breakout at my R .36154 which I've set earlier coz I ain't buying at the moment. Is there anything wrong with that for those who have queries? Anyway ain't bother with critics......, going to bed now

Have a good day matey, we have loads of crazy retail traders here, including myself!!!!!

Politeness is overrated at this point. Maybe some traders here are from Delaware, the word polite is not in their dictionary. Heading to bed soon too. Just setting another run on silver for today. My broker gives fixed silver spread 4 pips. I takes 2-3 trades a day at most. So its doable everyday for a trillion years no issue. Unless iam taking 100 trades a day then its highly unlikely. Good nite mate and happy weekend.

Next week ECB with Spain and Italy dilemma again and south goes EU. Tho i dont trade currencies. Commodities for life. Much easier to predict.

Hi guys!

this is my first post to FF, hope you all welcome me in special way ....

Totally agreed jonahky7..... taking profit at 10 pips is much less than the risk... or Put 10pips SL, which is nonesense at all, i never took profit less than 300 pips.

Hey buddy, register on ff and we can dicuss in the forum

As I mention, my method may not be suitable for others as the risk are higher coz the lot is bigger. 20pips at 16x for me is £2K profit or loss so there are risk associated with it. The way I minimise it is to trade at the MAJOR RS (resistance/support) lines ONLY if I'm trading big lots - take TP when possible and run. If I trend, I trend with smaller lots 1-2 lots with 30pips SL max.

Ultimately there is risk in forex and you have to be very careful. Hope my 2cts advice helps.

Plus don't follow blindly with traders here in this forum is what I can say. Coz I do get my SL taken out too - though I try to minimise it as much as possible. Don't hang on to a losing trade for too long - otherwise risk losing more
I'm confused by your random snippets, however, it doesn't matter, it's irrelevant given that you don't really trade 100 lots off low time frames trading commodities such as silver. Why posters persist in such pathological behaviour on forums is a mystery to me.

If you need to know HOW, all you need to do is ASK.

Every blind man believes everyone else around him sees the world exactly the way he does.
Every retard kid believes everyone else is just like him/her.

Like i said earlier, if your are trading with $1000 account, you believe everyone else around the world trades as much or lesser than you. Maybe you need to go out more. The day you are able to come out of your ignorance cocoon might just be the day you are able to trade more than $1000. After all, ignorance is a bliss

Have a good weekend. p/s : I dont mind to send you some $$ for your expenses down to NY and bring you around some fund managers with $50m to $200m at their disposal. You might probably just say those accounts are fake too. *sigh*.....
There's nothing you can teach here, you made yourself look foolish, best to back off and quieten down as opposed to compounding your stupidity; "100 lots scalping silver"...The only bit of fund managers you'll know and meet in N.Y.C are their dirty shoes, now get back to polishing them you silly boy...
