I will be back in the game soon. Between getting what was probably H1N1, proposing to my girlfriend, trying to plan a wedding, and work, I have not had much time to trade spot or binaries. This is the first time I've been on the forum in a while.

So, after trading Binary options for a while, and then getting too busy at my day job to watch ...
- lucashammer replied Sep 8, 2009
So everyone knows, I'm still here and trading binaries (if I get a chance). Due to work, I have no way to watch the prices throughout the day, and since these are all pretty much intraday trades, I haven't been able to trade for the last week. I ...

Well, another day is going and I'm trying to decide if I should trade before the FOMC minutes today. It has been a wild enough week that I could see a big jump with about an hour to go today... Can't decide. Anyone else have an opinion on that one?

Oh wow, sorry to hear about your trades. The problem with any buy orders today is that the price shot straight through any supports that were along there.

Well, my sell of EUR/USD > 1.4360 is good. By about 160 pips... Huge drop. Good for me, but it's making me pretty nervous about the volatility here.

I guess, it's a range, but still. I don't remember the last time I've seen this many 60+ pip hours.

Yeah, that's my problem. Work has become busier and busier which makes it trickier for my to find time to make my trades. Found myself making trades I probably shouldn't a couple of times. Luckily, my analysis has been correct more often than not. ...

Adventurous is how I've lost a lot of money.
Binary Forex Trading JournalI was nervous there for a few minutes, but it dropped after hitting 1.4342, so I'm feeling a little better about my call there.

I have been picking them based on support/resistance and nothing else but trying to predict the price action. For example, for today, I see a daily resistance point of 1.4340, so I took a sell of EUR/USD > 1.4360. Now that hasn't always helped, but ...

Well, 100 pips in the green and it seems to be ranging now, so I should be good on that trade. Still playing catch up but playing it a little better than I was before. Am I wrong or is NFP this Friday?

I definitely am. I think I saw where I was going wrong before as far as the S/R lines, but I'd still like to make sure.

Got into a buy of EUR/USD > 1.4240 right before the spike this morning. Going for another 5% on my account.

Got out of my trade when it went 12 pips below my strike point. Grabbed some food, came back and it was back above... EDIT: Well, I broke two major trading rules today after I got out of that trade. First, I traded angry. Second, I jumped into a ...

Sorry to hear about your losses. I've been there also. I'm currenty in a trade of EUR/USD > 1.4340. It's a little riskier than I normally go, but I'm looking for a 13% increase today to get me back on track from my losses. Here goes nothing. EDIT: ...

I have seen that before too in very large jumps like that. As soon as they don't have bid and offer prices anymore they close the trading for that contract. Sorry to hear about your trade. I know exactly how you feel though. Happened to be before.

Looks like you're going to be good on this one. I see it ranging at least for another hour after the cliff it fell off of. I managed to pull together my S/R for what appears to be a correct analysis, so I'm good on mine. Decided to take the safer ...
