Do you have a position open with no stop loss or something?
umm ya was hoping for some sort of retracement, and we ve got none on the stinken GBP this entire week since its breakout its insane. I know im stupid for not having a stoploss it was at the top of the channel and i was only going for a few pips that night i cant believe what this has turned into

going against the fundamentals and the trend, and trying to pick a top is a recipe for disaster in trading.

All I know is that I've been long GBP, short CHF, and short JPY now for awhile... this holiday season has been one heck of a dandy!

nice one mr trend, and all the best of luck, i hope you get the extra pips on opening, then it will be mighty fine and dandy.

i cant see much reason to short the eur/usd at the moment and i guess everyone else feels the same
again if these posts are true and can be believed

Same here - since last Sunday in fact

Been a dream of a week for trend traders & a nightmare week for those trying to guess where this is all going to end

its true, todays news from fxcm platform is as follows


20:23 USD: Under Heavy Selling Pressure In Early Trading] Sydney November 27.
Dealers report order books loaded with stop losses this morning, many option
related, as players short volatility look to cover. The EUR/USD opened at 1.3100
and has surged to test 1.3180; the USD/JPY fell from 115.96 to 115.59, causing
the EUR/JPY to surge from 151.75 to 152.45. GBP/USD jumped from 1.9325 to 1.9460
and the USD/CHF fell from 1.2085 to test 1.2020.
The market is thin and nervous, waiting for the Asian players to add some
liquidity. The usual reaction to an early move is a session of retracement, but
if the option market is under extreme stress this USD move could feed on itself,
generating further USD selling interest. The EUR/USD trades 1.3167/70.

OMG, I don't know how to go LONG GBP and EUR anymore. I thought today would be a perfect day to do it and it seems I'm wrong.

Retracement, please come..!!

sounds like it is the day to take the day off! i will wait until london and new york have something to say before taking a position.
With a break always expect a pullback, otherwise, you're dead meat/

think some big boys taking more opportunity of low liquidity and raping the small fry while their servers are down - hopefully the stop-hunting will stop in a few hours and some dollar love will prevail.

Your broker is not open so that you can't do anything about your trade. But, the market itself is still open. Otherwise, you won't see any gap up and gap down on your chart.
