I've done that a few times and I've learned not to do it again. There is always another entry point around the corner. It's best to take those 7 pips unless the spine angle is pointed way down/up and it's just the beginning of a new trend. Then I ...

Nothing in financial markets is concrete. Oil was hanging really close to $100 anyway so personally I assumed it would start to pull back soon. I thought around the end of November to early December for sure. Analysts that come out and make these ...

The morning was actually pretty nice overall but around NY open it got a lot more choppy so I quit trading for the day. I don't trade choppiness since it compromises my ability to make a profit. Not as nice as yesterday of course, but there were ...

Today's trades.

It's still going. I feel like a pig, but in a good way.

No, you're right. Today has been an exceptional day for the E/J so far. I've been trading it all morning.

Spreads on Oanda widen before news releases, before the weekend and during the weekend. A typical EUR/USD spread of 10 pips is present over the weekend and doesn't fall to 'acceptable' levels until like the middle of Japan's open. You have to keep a ...

I use the 5sec and the 30sec chart and sometimes I glance over at the 5min chart too. Trades for today. I got a little trigger happy and exited one short trade between 8:40 and 8:45 for a loss even though it was going to end up in the right ...

Though EUR/USD doesn't have such large ranges as EUR/JPY, it too has ranges where you can make a good profit. That of course comes with screen time. I used to trade EUR/JPY exclusively months before I even found this thread. However, what I've ...
