Been watching these threads for a couple of months now, while I am just a novice trader and don't claim to be anything more, I can't help but notice some posts. It makes me laugh when I see, "it is going up, but if doesn't, it will be going down." And then provide analysis for both directions and claim you called it correctly in a later post. Why not just post that you have no idea, and stop trying to over analyze?
It depends on the technical standpoint. Not all of such comments are nonsense. Because what you described as "it can go up but it can also go down" reflects a "50/50" situation in the frame of Statistics.. In statistics you can't say "I don't know" if you know that the chances are 50/50. Somebody who doesn't even know there is a chance of 50/50 compared to someone who knows there is at least a chance of 50/50 are totally different in their opinions. So it is not the same.

What you should do is to ask how the commenter of the post is backing up his theory. If he just talks blah blah yeah we can laugh all together and have fun. But if he has some technical explanation for his comment all you can do is agree or disagree. Nobody knows the future but some are better than other's in predicting. We all are still learning and improving. The ultimate goal is to make money, nothing more.

Welcome to the trading world.

IMO "it can go up but it can also go down" doesn't really help anyone trading decipher or learn from here. There are support and resistances so at least a call for any significant support or resistance will help dramatically, still IMO.

Anyway the motive is to make money.

I agree. Sometimes it doesn't help. Or does it? 50/50 is some sort of gray area to me too, but sometimes we can't help it. It is the nature of 50/50.

I also agree that these comments might not help others to learn.. but hey? I didn't know that Forexfactory is a school? If someone wants to learn there are schools for that. IMO babypips.com is much better for learners, maybe there are also other websites. On the EURUSD thread I never signed up with the primary expectation to learn something. If I do it is a bonus but it is not a requirement.

Some traders do however give great explanations as to how specific fundamental events will impact the currencies. Sure, in doing so they are giving both the bull and bear scenarios, but the explanation of how these events actually changes the value of a currency, aids other traders make better decisions about what they believe is most likely to happen.

With that said, some people do exactly what you are saying and it is very annoying. Best to just ignore them I think. I'm new here, but I always post my directional bias and even attach my trade explorer so I'm not one of those!!
So 50/50 chance it will either go up or down. We can use this to our advantage because it WILL go up AND it will go down(so trade in between). Now just some food for thought I left my trade open up overnight and woke up around 7am EST to see the Bulls take it 50-70 pips higher. Now this was before anyou news so my thoughts are which I am slightly afraid to post this incase they change their strategy. I think the rich people obviously had the news ahead of time and invested accordingly. Another feeling I get it that this bullish trend is super artificial because there is this thing going on with the use where it's rallying UP so I know 60 pips aren't a lot but I'd have to think this increase had no basis unless the Euro is far undervalued from the long decline it's had over the year or this is just a small correction although it seems to engulf a lot of previous bars or like my gut is telling me is this is all a ruse and the euro will continue to fall accordingly no matter how hard the market makers give the Bulls hope or an illusion of an uptrend. Not only is the u.s. bullish as of late call it the trump bubble. Talks of France leaving the euro sooner than later would be catastrophic for Europe. Germany can't sustain it by themselves. I'm no expert on Europe however. Migrants can't grow the gap any time soon maybe 10 20 years. Anyone have more information?

EUR is untradeable to me .
Dollar/yen has 50 pips to go higher .
Find yourselves a dip and trade it , will you .......
And to that guy complaining against posts stating ''either up or down '' .....Man , this is forex market !
If I told You , that it is going up for sure - then I am an arogant fool , and if You trade my call then we have two simpletons !
Do not forget that one of the purpouses of these forums is to share ideas , and if one is lucky , another might fiind flows in his analisys and persuade im to chew it over .
Just a reminder on some things, and for those in the US, debt ceiling vote is next Wednesday:
March 14 Merkel to Washington
March 15 Interest rate increase
March 15 Debt Ceiling
March 15 Dutch election

Thanks for that !
So these make EUR even worse for trading next week .
I wonder why there is not much noise in the media about the debt ceiling vote .Perhaps because is widely accepted that the ceiling will be lifted again .....and again next time ...and so on

Right. everyone knows that price will go up or down. Where is idea in stating in some shape or form : "price will go up or down"? How many times one can post it using different wording, changing colors...maybe, perhaps possible probably might be . All of it describe uncertainty...add trump EU mess endless ideas
certainly everyone can do it and if everyone post it that would be really forum of "ideas"?

FFP trader post charts that s/he doesn't trade but suggest , recommends to others what to do, trade give opinion etc. Is that right?
If one ask FFP trader if and what s/he/transgender trade or if trade as posted, suggested recommended then one will get answer like: will consider it , perhaps, will see...never posted what s/he actually traded, always said in unspecified form...

Also FFP trader post numerous posts for either case so what ever actually happened FFP trader is right....never lost more than 2.6 pips or lovest BE or 1.2

FFP trader post outlook and trade against his/her own outlook....

post what is traded...good enough

Got 115.6x and then multiyear 116.20 above. 114.8x is now gone, smoked for this year.

But it can go up or it can go down!

No technical stuff today either. And I think that's common sense.
Why? Because no one knows how the NFP will come out. Period.

Even the ECB kicked up the euro for a minor @40 pips (only the hourly closings considered, no wicks),
you can still see my EUR/USD sentiment below, 6 days firmly bearish.
Because there it belongs on the major current fundamental informations.

Have a good NFP Friday you all!

Thanks mate.
I see it can test 114.60s before going higher but honestly I dont like strong trending pairs like JPY too much.
Also a question for you, often times UJ and EUR inversely correlated but there are times that they both go into same direction. Is there a specific reason why/when that happens?

Hey! Angry losers! Cool down!

The posts here are not prophecies, sure tips,
they are probable scenarios based on technical patterns,
argumented with proper tools, even fundamental informations.

We don't try to convince anybody.
We post here our ideas, our setups, scenarios, even our trade parametres.

Of course we change it all the time, because the chart is a living thing, it changes all the time!
Only a pathetic idiot believes you can stay bullish or bearish forever, or waitng for a prophet to lead the way and never fk it up!

Naive retards, they imagine they will just have to sit on their toillet seat, picking their noses, staring at the walls
and waiting for someone here on the thread, to tell them the right direction, helping them to make easy money all the time!

This is not a noob, this is a retard thinking like that!
Well, I got news for you retards, ...it will never happen, because it doesn't work like that!

We do assess, evaluate, rate, measure, estimate ...we don't provide sure tips!!!!!!

So shut the fk up and move your asses elsewhere,
we don't need retards, trolls and haters, to bring their shit here!
