I certainly hope not, otherwise my German friend is making a mockery of my trading style. There is no place for that kind of thing on Forex Factory.
I'm a noobie, and this is the method I'm using as well. I'm getting kicked around for the last 3 hours so i wanted to be sure I;m not a complete idiot!!

Is this sarcasm?
i am sorry , but what gives you that impression
that IS a tick chart, sharper than 1 min charts
and those are Bollinger bands too

you can trade it during aussie, london or whatever session you want, that is fine

where is the problem ?

Try PLN/KRW, PLN/SEK or HUF/PHP on the 1-minute timeframe instead....

Just kidding....

I am no scalper and don't look at a charts under 15m, also only trade the most liquid pairs. But that's just my style. However, I know traders who make decent cash from scalping, but I prefer to keep my blood pressure in check! I know ArthurB trades the PLN/SEK pair on a scalping basis very profitably.

I wish you good fortune.

Every retail trader and probably hedge fund trader is thinking...

Easy shorts... load up.

However... bank traders know that if they can push it to .2850isih then .3000 is a certainly on the table.

Should that happen the banks know they've blown up a lot of stops and options contracts.

There's no problem Arth... You had just described the method I'm using to a T and it's not working for me today, I just had to ask!

Took a short at R1 right before the budget news. Expected people to sell the news but not. Had to exit for +11. If this H4 really closes as good as it looks like, we may make it to the the .2888 range.

I trade my own T/A, but I was wondering if those that were talking about a huge drop coming up, were still thinking that is possible? Or has the tide turned? I still have an UTL that has not been broken so I don't think shorts are a totally forgone conclusion. Any thought?

  • Mar 11, 2009 11:53am Mar 11, 2009 11:53am
I never !

Must broke that 1.2812.
we may see a small drop and a break next H4.

Edit : for non believers I advice a order to long at 1.2813 to TP at 1.2822, that's all non believers can get
for believers I hope you guys have entered long in all retraces we got today.

dont know why but dollar had got strength across the board on my other trades as euro got strength.. then as euro crossed 28 it started to pull them with euro.. maybe a head fake.. things settling down now..equity and oil are down... hell if i know... if we get back down to 2750 im getting out half of mine..unless its a strong move down

Wish I had heard this 6 hours ago. Im too deep in the game to quit now. The problem is you never know its a range market until like 3 hours in. Then you see it and go shit we are playing ping pong and Im the ball.

Amen to that. How's it going paul?
Things going very well for me in past few days, in stark contrast to losses suffered last week, which I'm close to fully recovering.

Not been trading Cable today, a small EURUSD position being my only foray into forex. Still focusing on equities and my brain cannot cope with too much at once!

Anyway, what brings you into this room, my friend? Looking for your next bear raid victim, after trampling all over my beloved currency?

I trust you are well.

prob depend on your broker, friend. mine is based in the uk and rolls positions at 8pm GMT, so a trade opened at 8:01pm will not be subject to swap costs.
