'Cable' is the uk GBP pound. Called this because the rates used to be transmitted via the trans-atlantic cabling betwwen the UK and US.
what signal you using to take position?

i take longer term positions. i dont trade using the forex platforms. i trade using curreny warrants. So i just look at the bigger picture and hopefully ride out the ups and downs on the way. I tried day trading but dont have the time to watch the market all day unless im off work.

I use the daily and weekly charts. Im in short on the GBP/USD and hopefully if it goes below 19510 i will be in the money.

but the weekly doesnt suggest down...does it?
just the downtrend suggest down.....monthly on the other hand says down...just didnt expect it to happen now ..but not b4 2.0062 is seen ..then short from there..thats what i was planning

the monthly chart has a great bearish pin.. 2.03 i say is the max likely to be seen and if that break s then id say trend is broken to uptrend

but what do u know....

hii..a possible trade on the eur/usd for long @1.5462 we might get over 50 pips , possible more,but its a bit of a aggresive trade.

to be honest just like u ..i want to be a position trader..i dont want to be caught in this mess with stops being stoped all the time.

so i decided to play for area....conservative target is 1.9800..possible 2.00 but if 1.9800 come ill take it..i feel for this bottom to break a try to the top need to come and a rejection seen then....it will hapen (i think)

think u have to wait for 15430 before u go long on eur/usd. but i see the daily and weekly charts looking like a buy at that level.

but remember two fed members going to speak tmrw and they will surely reiterate a strong dollar policy

never heard of it...my advise to u is...

make a plan and stick to it regardless and overcome fear of the market if u have it....i found with me if i place a stop close i feel lot of tension ..so i have mental stops nows...and this helps if u get a signal to say yur wrong just cancel the trade

hi folks
I think chances of GBP/USD going south for today is minimal as in 1H chart bollingerbandwith bulge has gone to max. I try to buy around 1.9525-1.9520 for 25- 30 pips if it go down that much again for today, never know if USD/JPY break 107.50 maybe GBP will go south all depends on USD/JPY for today

Hi Warta,

I am doing great! I hope all is well with you and your trades. I am long gu from 1.9520 and looking to add at 1.9500 based on this chart... I am looking for 100 pips first and then I may leave some to float. Take care my friend and good luck to you...

So if the FED sticks 0.25% on rates in the U.S. that's going to restore confidence in the U.S. ?????

25% of the word's oil bill is being paid by the U.S. and will the recipients of all those USD's keep their wealth in USD ? Would you ?

If you were borrowing USD to carry UK equities or bonds, would a 0.25% USD rate hike stop you doing it ?

Doesn't make sense

I have just had a massive fight with GM credit card to get my limit raised from 500 dollars to 2000 - it took a month of letters, emails and phone calls every night...

I have a very good credit score and two other credit cards with really good limits so I didn't need it - but I like to win and I dont like to be told NO - so I fought them for the hell of it until they gave way - I will cancel it next month because their foreign based customer service is appallingly bad

Just shows how scared the credit card companies are in the U.S. - they say that the hidden crunch in cards will be bigger than the housing repos when it comes
