GM Davit and my other Pivoter Friends, I wanted to share my "Button" pair selector that I have modified separating Davit's most traded pairs and their general direction - Buy or Trade Long and Sell or Go Trade Short. It just helps me go thru the selected Pairs quicker and to quickly reminds me of the suggested Pair direction as per Davit: {image} {file} You can easily modify again or correct as you like. Cheers ! - John

Diamondminer , been in DD in a USD/CAD trade since April 23rd , my longest trade held , ever. Out with a profit on the super positive Retail News for Canada.
Monthly gain on this trade was 15.9 % !!!
Could NEVER have done this without DAVIT'S THREAD.
My entries were fine , at the time. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN FOREX , AND IT DID.
I didn't panic because I had my account managed very well.

I follow Davit's advice , always. 10% monthly gain is the target , anything else is gravy.
Thanks again for your post , revisiting PAGE 1 is ALWAYS A POSITIVE THING TO DO.

Thanks ,
GE

Davit's Preference is Short only NZD.
Yes, fundamentals may change preferences.
Refer: Post 30,097, May 6, 2019 6.46am
Recently, I admit that I have taken NZD Long (AUDNZD) that remains in question.
You may recall, Davit's NZDCAD trades Long NZD, with not a happy result.

Hi John
I would suggest scrape everything on that list and trades should be taken on each individual pair according to system rules.
Thank you
In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

What is going On? I feel a high level uncertainty with Global Economics. British Steel is looking for a bail out From the british government which would save 30,000 jobs a whole town is practically employed by this one huge corporation. They have blamed on brexit saying the drop in sterling and the rise in material costs furthermore our High streets are now becoming ghost towns, Everyday i turn the radio all i hear is business either locating or going into administration with the loss of thousands of jobs. Is the early stages of a domino effect?

Retail Sales for CAD were very good, double than forecast, for those like me having shorted CAD against NZD, this means DD that gallops. {image}
Probably overruled by the drop in oil prices at about the same time.

Thanks for the indicator, can be useful on some charts for overview.

For actual trading decisions I prefer individual charts for each pair. I just label the chart with SELL or BUY for the preferred direction, mainly based on the size of the swap. I will buy and sell if the swap is only slightly negative in both directions, like audnzd.

I try to avoid trading against large negative swap, like buying euraud or selling usdjpy for example.

The swap is based on the interest rates of the individual currencies and the fundamental direction in the long term would be trading with positive swap. This also helps to reduce the drawdown if you are 'forced' to hold onto trades longer than anticipated.

In a nice zone pending Bat on the Daily. Retail Sales early Friday morning or late Thursday night for those of us on the West Coast.

gbpcad

Look at the pair's movement over the last 200 hours, largest of them all. Even more than pairs we are not recommended to trade like gbpjpy and gbpnzd.

You would say it should retrace now, but referring to my previous post, you would be trading with negative swap and taking a risk on gbp volatility due to Brexit.

Agreed. Watching all E pairs. EA and EG the most. Election in 4 days. Too many data tonight and mostly expected average or negative. Such a strong move in EG over past 2 weeks doesn’t look justified.

Hi Davit,

I was watching EG, but at the moment I prefer to stay out of any pound pair.

GBP is sinking and will probably go lower if British Gov won't come up with a solution.
Ironically today Great Britain will be the first country to vote for European elections.

Best regards,
Bubincka
