Hey you!

Did you get some data for Excel? Sent you a link for Dukascopy csv and xml files, but didn't hear back from you. Any use? Can post the link again, but maybe you have already seen it.

Also asked, but didn't hear from you...are you just looking for historical data, or are you trying to pipe data in live?

I wouldn't even talk to the bastard if he wasn't!

SNB and gold just pays our bills for nothing and allows us to focus our greed elsewhere!

I kid, I kid. Every feckin pip is earned!

I saw the dukascopy link, but was already aware of it. I am looking for historical, but also want to record the new data live..

nonetheless, I guess the dukascopy data would work, at least for now as the live data would only be beneficial later on..

Where do you think they're going...1.25?
this is just a shot in the dark but i got myself positioned on a pullback after the rumor... and put my stop well below any stop hunts lower which did happen then it recovered right back....

that hunt lower told me they were trying to take out any traders playing the rumors and accumulate orders to go long lower...

even further proved it by price imediately retuning to where it was from the buying right back at a lower level... it moved so fast back bc of the low liquidity etc..

also later on in the evening we had buyint that spiked it to a new high which again triggered stops and (which u faded) price retreated but came back to hold a decent level off the move up which tells me the spike was not just a stop hunt but someone trying to position themselves for a future event... then trying to cover it up later by calling it "just a stop trigger in a low liquidity time"

wtf ever something is up and i am positioned to take profit at 1.2550

reason 1.2550 is bc they will always overshoot the target ..

anyway this is all gust a guess by me but who really knows for fack anyway till it happen...

the point is i am well into profit and positioned and im going for a home run or a BE trade...

i could be completly wrong here but hey its worth a shot bc at this point its gambling the markets money not mine

Live and directly into Excel...or just stored on a hard drive to be imported into Excel later?

It is at least a) free and b) the integrity of the data is pretty solid...as in...very solid...particularly given point a)!

Give me the answer to the bit in bold...and I'll have a couple more words/suggestions if you want.

Yep...big forces at play.

Euro is shite...world knows it. BUT...maybe it actually HAS been saved this time! () Big day for Ben and his cronies. The world has been waiting for this day for a long while now, and it is going to determine where...who knows how many trillions...are going to head.

If its really ugly news...the SNB are going to have a hard time keeping money out of francs. Should be a great show! Come on 2550...good luck with it, brother!

well actually. maybe as long as excel is open, it would refresh the data.. so it would still mean it would be recorded somewhere on the hard drive..

if it is direct to excel, it would also work

oh man if Ben decides to actually expand the balance sheet( I read Goldman is talkin 1 trillion of bond purchases at least) or god forbid they set explicit GDP targets(highly highly unlikely)... its def going to be a monster currency war.... Im not sure what the SNB could even do other than a mechanical peg to keep hot money flow out.... we could see never seen before moves ...

i for one and going to either trade with very very small leverage if something sets up i cant resist

but Ill prolly just sit on my hands till after the fireworks and shoot the wounded after
