something is whacked, I logged out and reloaded and it cleared the spike...my account balance is way, way, way off. I'm in the negative...HUGE
So, you mean to say you went short somewhere around 1.30s...?

I am amazed at how you do that... my son in-law is in school fulltime and I barely remember what he looks like these days... last final is today tho.

if you say yoorow is goin down, then go down it will...

stop in more often when you get tired of the geppy adrenaline rushes. of course today eu is second to none for that...
School is a freakin' beast. Not as beastly as the GJ, worse

Haven't been trading much had to get my mind right again. How are you doing? What school is your son in law in?

we have 23.6 fib retrace at 1.3200 from the start of uptrend. That is the least market can give back, if it is not generous enough

Yes, I see that....from start of the move on 12/4 with the low of 1.2549 to todays high...you're right it definitely has much more room to drop - I just don't like trading after 12noon (I'm in California) as I've seen alot of erratic movements...looks like its beginning it's descent again..happy trading all.

take a screenshot and call borker soonest... document every single thing you do, time and and who you talk to. any chance you took a screenshot of the spike before you cleared it??

it sure sounds like a spike if it was 700-800 pips.. it should work out ok, but there's always hoops to jump thru..

ADD: be on lookout for a new thread on this in the "Borker Discussion" room ((or you can start one)) if it gets drawn out.

Been waiting for what seems like a couple of days for this to start dropping in earnest, which it is MHO it will.

The BB pinch breakdown looks good on paper, and the -262% fib ext. level co-incides with fib pivot R1 area, which it is MHO it will get to.

Of course, the more of these thoughts that it is going to start down in earnest that get wacked by the big money players, the MH I get......

Univ of North Texas, Denton... We're down here in exile right now from alaska
((sittin out the winter )). I keep saying I'm tryin make gas money back, but we'll wait till spring at least now that it's all froze up. we drove back this time of year 2 years ago and almost died.

all our artic gear was somewhere else, and it hit 65 freakin fahrenheit below 0 and we had to drive 48 hrs straight to keep things going. that stoppped being fun many years ago, so sittin it out here in la-la land.

got to take off for an hour. someone let the air out of this thing so we can make some pips here!!

Please save it if you will. Cannot get through to live chat, and in my disbelief didn't get a chance to get a screen shot. Unbelieveable.

It's bounced off that tl as we speak, for about 70odd pips
I guess it's the minimum it can do after 270 pips up from London open

I'm trying chat too. Even if I didn't have a loss it makes me afraid to have any pending orders or stops. Nobody is coming on the chat. Probably all clients are wondering wtf

Do you have a post you can point me to for this. I saw a chart pic with many lines, circles, etc. but if this is where the 1.3228 gann level is I wouldn't have a clue? I don't know who would. Maybe it was in another post I didn't see, I don't know?
I work with a lot of charts.
Last chart I posted, it is not my Gann Chart, it is a H4 Chart with some symmetric channels where shows that the must important price that start this uptrend was 1.2735.
About the last pic it was my M15 Gann Chart.
1.3228 resistance is in my weekly Gann Chart!

Phew, after my Internet Blackout, let me cool down for awhile.

Their response is: "Some clients were closed at incorrect prices, if you were affected please log a case so that the Micro team can take care of it"...which is probably a canned answer. So I guess you have to "officially" file.

anyone notice how well the e/u bounces off the 20sma on the 15min chart....very uncanny...this will be the fourth time unless it gets pierced....then my short should thaw out a bit

mm
He who hesitates is hesitant....which always leads to bad entries.
