Dislikedthanks Fx_Genius
your reply cleared a lot of things for me , cause i thought it depended on different sessions of NY, London, Tokyo,....etc.Ignored
DislikedTypically there is very little movement over the weekend (close NY to open Sydney) but lately the E$ seems to start moving around 1:00 - 1:30 PM CDT on Sunday. Most brokers don't allow trading over the weekend.
E$ currently 1.57985/1.58085.
Glad I could help.Ignored
DislikedEven though the market moves during the weekend, when your broker is closed your position act as if it's not moving. Which means even if you know the price went up 100 pips during the weekend and you have a limit in place, it happened that it did touch that limit but some how retraced afterward just before the opening of the market. Your broker will not honer that limit. Same with stop or call margin I believe.Ignored

DislikedYEAH, you tell'em Fx genius! I use Oanda and trade gaps alot of time due to the weekend thing. Take careIgnored
DislikedYou mean you trade hoping for a partial closure of the gap after the markets open (like with the fall after G7) ?Ignored

DislikedWith oanda, I see the market gap before the market opens. Sometimes it has found support before opening and I will place orders for it to fill the gap. I have done the opposite as well, seeing the market fall before it has opened and traded the fall. Have made some O.K. money (due to the spread) before opening.Ignored
DislikedMaybe you have already talked about it, but I am still wondering where one could see the forex movements during the weekend, i.e. after US market closes and before Sydney market opens. I don't have Oanda or any of the common brokers you guys seem to use. Any other place?Ignored
