Hello everyone, Have not been in the forum for a while. I have had other interests occupying my time like grandchildren;-) Just a quick note as I was reading a post from late last year and I noticed a typo. It should say ...

Well done! You help the needy. Don't forget to take a well needed break for you my friend! imho - we may get a good run up in this pair real soon as FOMC is telling us, we will stop inflation. not confident but ride the fedspeak.

I am staying short EURUSD into the new year but.... My disaster of being in wrong trades when markets are not liquid keeps me humble so I am squaring up a lot to reduce exposure. I will hold a very small short EURUSD into the holidays after the ...

As the holiday season approaches, remember to protect your positions. We can have violent moves when the big players are on holiday. As wealthyqueen reminds us, this is not new. It is always a little different, but basically the same.

Hello, Just a quick comment. Remember to buy the rumor and sell the fact. USD is safe haven so stay long USD until the Fed starts raising rates. When Fed starts raising rates, sell USD and stay with it. I know it sounds wrong but this is how I make ...

Stayed with just long term trading and it was good over the summer. Now with the M pattern in the monthly and covid becoming a problem, the safe haven should continue to work. Trouble in the 1.1660 if is gets there. The flip side is the USD printing ...

I am not posting much these days. I don't think I have much left to offer here as I am too tired to scalp anymore. Swing trades and long term only and that means less time in the chat rooms and my trades are days old sometimes before I remember to ...

I covered my long trades and starting a short position in my swing account. Still holding the shorts in my long term account, which went in the red a little after this big bull move but I did not close. As Jessie used to say, "sit tight when you ...

This is one of the patterns I find are usually profitable. It's called the flying Budda.

And of course, me being the idiot, you cannot see me??? They say Valar Dohaeris but not in FF

Not sure why you choose to ignore everyone and keep on posting. What is your purpose here?

Cashed out some longs in the swing trade, holding about half size now. Gotta convert pips to cash. Added some shorts in my scalp accounts but these will be covered before EOD.

Saw this last night and put some long orders to work in my swing account. It was a good thing as look at the power of the candle today. I am still holding short in my long term account so I did not make much on this move, just on size as swing ...

For the knowing, in was a great week for range trading. You can make a great living on knowing when the range is in season, and exploiting it

I have not had problems with IG closing positions although sometimes there is slippage, usually against my trade. Based on the chart I posted you will see that was an area where stops were parked, near 1.1761 so that was where the movers were ...

It's not closed yet but look at the power of the month candle

The movers aren't hunting you personally, they are moving the market to the area that has the most stops. Remember that they can see both sides, in their house. But they often have spies in other brokers houses so they can see more. An obstacle to ...

Finally got on the shorty at 1.1840 which was my first target when planning the trade. I don't know why I did not pull the trigger as I had this planned correctly. Even though it is positive in the money column it is still a loss as I hesitated on a ...

We have broken below the recent range today. Is this a bear trap or the real deal. We will find out tomorrow. The longer term charts all set for downward but that may be painted by the movers. I am still flat as I have been chasing (but not ...

Getting close to the short signal but still nothing. Lessons Learned. Never think you can know which way the trade will go. The big guns can push for a desired outcome, but cannot be sure. The minnows in this big forex pond get eaten if we don't ...
