What kind of a stupid broker is that ?
Get out of there man.
Currenex is not a broker, it is a ECN platform. Because this is ECN, no one can guaranty you the fill.

Actually, SL is indeed possible in CX but the way to input it is very painful and requires many clicks and typing in - potential for error is great and even then, if marked moves fast past your larget - you will not get filled. The only way to get a really "guaranteed" stop loss is to use a "Best Market Price" orders but on ECN you might be into some very nasty surprize when you get filled with slippage of 100-200 pips. Yesterday was a prime candidate moment for such fill.

For that I have .3-.5 pips spread and fixed commission

But this was last time I held a position for a longer time in a market which moves against me. Should have listened to people here.

I am locking myself now into very strict strategy and policy I know works for me, at least until I recover from 300 lost pips in recent month, and guess what.. I lost them every single time because:

1) I departed from my usual profit goals.
2) I departed from my trading style.
3) I think and try to predict too much.

Market is a living being and I am a little mosquito, this being is expierencing epileptical seizure right now, I better stay away and suck on its blood when it is breathing quiet and predictable.

I am currently long for 20pips.

I'm looking at the Oil and Gold and see a potential (in my opinion likely bounce up).--even if it is short lived.

So ? You can get a normal 0.9 and occasional 1.2-1.5 except news time with Oanda, with no commision and guaranteed and easy to enter orders. There's only value for another few fractions of a pip if you're scalping real small moves, but that sounds pretty useless without immediate order fills.
On the path to Enrichment.

.....Is there anyone who is not trading right now, because of the wild moves?

....I haven't opened any positions since mid august because the market was starting to look very weird to me.

.... I am not a pussy, but the market right now is very crazy.
I know why you've been out of the market... you've gone wild and crazy over some weird pussy !
Get your ass back in here and trade !

If today it goes back to 1.4420 or more, well, Mr don.key was screwed in the a** once more by banks and their violent down-up games.

EURJPY appears oversold at the moment and given the backdrop of a weaker Q2 GDP in Japan, a bounce in this pair may unfold.

Trade idea:

Enter 150.80, SL 149.50 TP 154.20

If your long get out. this is an election year, Bush wants the dollar strong to end on a good note and is setting the stage for McCain and Palin to look like good Republicans. Pressure being exerted on leaders to devalue their money because it is our money in their vault and they don't want a weak american dollar. If your long get out and ride the short train... Get on board, or get run over... sorry

good luck,

Politics aside, to the extent that the move is being "engineered", I'm afraid there is
some truth to what he's saying. This didn't happen "by accident" and it isn't over yet.

Just closed this trade for 9 pips profit. I'm a little unsure how far up this counter rally will go so I exited the trade early

Oil and Gold - Up
EUR - Down

I still do not entirely understand their relation

currently it is doing strange things. generally speaking when Oil and gold is up the EURO is up. When oil an gold is down then the EURO is generally down.

It's not perfect.

If I was about to make a trade during this news (which I won't), I'd be getting ready to go short.

edit: I know I shouldn't but I can't resist. I'm short looking to take profit at 4220 for 18pips profit
