hmmmmmm they musta meant the end of 15:00 gmt not the start rotten PR's

no i guess just closing the books, seems pretty dead now LOL

EL, yea free service MT4 is great platform also, and if u want to create ascii or want dde server that is doable as well
I do use MT4 for my charting, I have Oanda but they dont have trailing stops which is a pain. I think I will give IBFX a go (be the 6th broker ive tried lol).

Let me see if I got it right... you've entered a position during a holiday day just prior the biggest news in the economic calendar (interest rates)?

I see... are you REALLY sure about that?

Let's spark some jitter here...
C'mon!!! Bring your EWs !!!!!!!!!!!!.
Although I know how to use EW there is no point of bringing it up. It's irrelevant at the moment. BUT if you look at the latest COT report you'll see a record high LONG speculative positions as of last Tuesday. Then we had four more bull runs so I expect the number to be even higer this week. Plus we are at 26 years high. Those alone are enough for me NOT to go long here. I don't want to be the sucker who buys at the top. I don't care if I'll miss couple of hunderds of pips.

possibly you are right Cesarnc.

oh well. my trades were taken on a longer term basis anyway, so I'm fairly sure I'll be safe.

Any chance something really really bad is gonna happen in England?

Well, I got two trades negative here, my broker is going off in 20 minutes for the next 10 hours...

yes - big chance my wife is going to forget to bring some coffee home...

it has been raining continuously for 5 weeks - worst since 1914 - i can't sell my house in the uk...

Our terrorists are bringing shame on the nation due to their incompetence and undermining faith in UK expertise - 8 doctors and they can't find out where to pull the pin...

I am depressed, and if Eddy George feels like me he will cut 1%

Well I am kidding - but just because fundamentals demand a rise, gordon brown and a few other influences of the non fundamental variety might want otherwise and we get a standstill....

Stranger things have happened...

I am not really trading, just trying to hedge my gbp investments due to be turned into USD, and I don't know where to fix my short right now... 2.0202 is v tempting if we get there tomorrow..
Yes I will fill my boots at that ....actually for my purposes I should short some right now ? with a sl at 2.0207 ? - there is a lot of blue sky under me right now - more downside than upside ? I reckon so.

I foresee a run to 2.0200 before any sort of retrace, even without a raise. So long as the BoE doesn't cut I think 2.0200 is in play.
