yep, but dont fancy buying here if that happens!! 100+ pip whipsaw

rate cut days nearly always produce big upmoves prior to the announcement during the days trade. therefore this move has been predictable and easy to trade, same for stocks,

50 baked into the cake for sure, 75 - how higher will it go? risk reward not great now

cut 25 is the best for us, will be easy to trade, sell.

Here's a war story for you. This was years back but right now reminds of the time. There was an interest rate statement due out and I was trading the AUD/USD, I was holding one position (can't remember long or short) and right when the announcement came out, she fell over 150 pips in less than 1m and then rose 250 pips the following minute (I can't remember the exact amount, but it was insane). I had my ass wiped and handed to me that day. For some reason, today reminds me of this.

Good luck to whoever is holding a position or going to enter a postion upon the announcement! I think I'll be sitting on my thumbs just looking for nice entries. Remember, you don't have to trade everyday to make money, you just have to take good trades when you do.
Thats right bro! I missed most of these moves today because I was on the road but I did'nt plan to trade until after the day closed anyway... Good luck to all and I hope everyone who traded blew up their accounts..... in a positive way that is...

Every broker is different bro! Shop them, I'm still shopping for a main broker and I've been on this quest for about a month now. I hold two accounts, one with FXDD and my main with MB Trading. FXDD gives me fixed spreads and MB Trading is variable.

I mean what happens to somebody who trades 50 lots and losses all his money in the account and cant bring himself to close the position...not only is he broke but he can actually be ruined

the thing is after i phoned my broker and i asked them as well ....and they told me all brokers would do this because if a position is placed over the weekend and gap..our positions cant be monitored causee the brokers are closed.....i will never leave a position over weekend again...i never realised i was playing with fire
