What a risky and careless way to play it... Just for a mere 15 pips (12 w/ spread).

Enough for today. 100 pips is not a bad result to me. Moreover, this is 30th Dec...

I realize that now still would be at zero if held though so not so bad. wasnt watching the downturn so missed it. And just played the bounce. sorry I ruffled so many feathers.

Oh no problem at all, what you do with your account is entirely up to you, I am just offering my suggestion in hopes that it will help you increase your equity or at least prevent you from losing it.

No doubt I do appreciate it too. I am new so I dont know but about 1% of what I feel like I need to know. I just saw some resistance and longed then it started slowing pretty quick so I got out with a small profit. I wish I had been watching more closely I would have caught the last 100 pips but Ill take 12 over none or a negitive anyday.

I am currently long EUR/USD, and intend to stay in that position. It is very difficult to say that a short in this area would be smart as we have strong support at the 139 level. I am trading on a longer term than intraday; I am aware of the waves, though I strongly caution against basing too much on technical analysis based upon the light volumes over the past week. My current view on the pair is that we will very soon see tremendous EUR strength as most of the selling in EUR is nothing more than JPY buying based on the risk adversion trade (GBP/JPY), (EUR/JPY). USD is in a remarkable overbought condition. For the week, I expect to see dollar weakness. Though I may the only one Happy trading.

My opinion is contrary to yours, just look at Eur/gbp today, this is not dollar strength but euro weakness. I intend to short today, but will wait for a modest retracement.

if only forex were that easy. im looking at usd/chf and think it "may" go up to 1.15 or higher, and EU may go down to 1.20 or lower. However, better watch the profits, cause in 1-2 days it can disappear, and directions change

1 day is a long one in this game.
Today is an example. I trade brainless.
It goes up, I go Long. It comes down, I short it.
Volatility implies money management. Stay Long if you must.

I just follow it.

I just got short 3957 10lots and 3956 10 lots and pulled out at 3920 for both due to all the confusion. Is there some kind of consensus that says up or down or are we back in the chop?
