You wouldn't have missed anything if you had placed smart sell or buy limit orders.
With movements lately, would rather do all orders manually...

Plus, I ain't that smart...

Sentiment on this forum seems to suggest that the UK is the only Country in trouble. Theory is that it'll be the U.S that leads the recovery, hence the "flight to quality" and the strong dollar. Cable at or near a ten year low. The DOW, the S&P? What do you think. Up or down?
The Euro? Is that likely to strengthen? Dollar, GBP and Euro parity? I don't think it'll even come close.
In the meantime, go with the trend. The dollar is on the up at the moment. A few months ago you could buy two for a pound. Funny old world.

US is not leading the recovery. but a lot of countries prefer to weak its own money to not ruin its exports and USD reserves. when the recovery really start US dollar will pay its part.

In other words, when people start to move away from risk aversion and their risk appetite improves, the USD will get poo'd on.

how do you have a 500 pip of looses!!!!... didn't use any stop looses??? if price move 100 pips against you better must to close the trade manually, and accept the looses. 100 pips is more easy to recover than 500. sorry my friend.
is a pity to loss 500 pips in a single trade...

it once happened to me..never stay in a trade when ever there is a break up..and it comes against you...you will learn a lot from this forum..

you must have PHD in loosing for you to make it in fx

GBP/USD

The Cable is crashing Monday on the news Britain is nationalizing Lloyd’s Bank. Additionally, it seems HSBC has considerable exposure in U.S. loans, hinting it will need further assistance from the British government. Hence, the Britain government is committing itself fully to unknown levels of toxic debt, meaning the BOE may have to print many more Pounds to account for the losses. This news has sent the GBP/USD tumbling below our 1st tier uptrend line and well below the psychological 1.40 level. The Cable is on the path to retest 2009 lows in a hurry. Should the currency pair reach 2009 lows intraday, we expect considerable support and a rally from these levels. However, the development is confirming our negative trend outlook on the Cable. The next important development will be whether the Cable can hold 2009 lows in the near-term. If the lows don’t hold, then we could witness the continuation of incredible near-term selling pressure. Fundamentally, we find resistances of 1.3777, 1.3805, 1.3844, and 1.3877. To the downside, we see supports of 1.3726, 1.3683, 1.3621, and 1.3585. The 1.40 level becomes a psychological barrier to the upside with 1.35 serving as a cushion to the downside. The GBP/USD is currently exchanging at 1.3764.

Hey Pip ,
How are you? I just closed my long on GBP/$ but keeping and watching USD/CAD short from 1.3030 ...........this is crazy pair so there also CAD may weaken even though Canadian economy suffering less compared to other industrial countries ..........Go Loonie go........!
Hey Banda Im good thnks havent had any trades today im still looking over the market for opportunities i dont feel like trading cable at the moment i missed my short yesterday night and wasnt prepared to go chasing pips.

You got a really nice entry on USD/CAD. That pair has broken out of a wedge to the upside so be caefull as it might follow through, set your SL to BE at least. If its a false breakout you could be in the . Personally i think it ill follow through though

Poo'd on until the US Fed is the 1st one to start fighting inflation by raising rates.

try to be careful shorting Ucad. look at weekly.... bull pennant break to up.. target looks a little unrealistic by now... but.... 1.47 is not so far.

even in 4h the formation looks like a bull pennant... if is true, around 1.3250 is the target...

Hell's chubbies ! UK going back to 15th December 1653 with a 'Lord Protector' ruling over parliament and everyone living by farming instead of working in a bank with imaginary money, downloading porn and and eating curry with chop sticks (The time of the great advance)

Lloyds/HBOS was effectively nationalised anyway and I reckoned HSBC was not as virginal as they claimed so I closed my account in Jersey last week (no compo scheme there)

This is financial sky diving with no reserve 'chute - exciting isnt it

CNN - Two nuclear powers squaring off and showing their botties at the other sides sailors - you couldn't make it up ! Traditionally , sailors were not averse to such invitations - hence the invention of the 'golden rivet'

If by hedging you mean buying and selling the same currency then this is completly useless, unless;

1) your holding long term positions and scalping the opposite movements.

2) Your hedging using different currency pairs
