Make sure it is installed into a separate folder than your other metatrader platform.

Think of liquidity as players and volume as cashflow.

low liquidity and higher volume = easy to manipulate/move price. So you get whippy violent moves.
low liquidity and low volume = flat market

Psi is on the money. Most of the money traded comes from the UK/EU and the USA. So when one is on holidays, we have lower liquidity but the volume is there to create the {at times} crazy moves.

gotcha..so its low liquidity +asian session which is dead usually anyways. so the difference in the euro/US session is that there usually is at least one party involved..either the europeans or the americans and since only one party is involved with the other ...taking the day off...less minds to think alike needed to push the markets. interesting...this topic reminds me of last year when the dow pushed up 1000points in one day on a holiday...i think it was in october....

i remember back then LIBOR was a big issue (still is to some extent)...does...
Yes, the Asian/Aussie session usually has low volume and low liquidity. So we get a flat market.

As for the LIBOR, I'm not really into the fundamental side of things. I would be guessing that it would have an impact on liquidity as people do borrow to trade/invest. So it would have an effect on liquidity and volume.

i would be careful with that trade. note that price action is very similar to the earlier attempt to break down only this time theres even more spikes involved. I suggest a stop loss above the high of the range..1.3670 or so would do

Damn vista. I dumped it a while back and re-installed XP.

I see they have finally fixed most of the security flaws:

Seems like if we're going to be retracing any time soon then today will be the day. Not necessarily going to happen at this moment though... more likely in the NY session.

by that same logic i have managed to turn this week into a losing one. not a major loss...but im used to winning. if there is one lesson i learned this week that i should always employ in the future...it is to respect pa's wishes (as insane as it may be)...not make it respect me. I have known all week...each broken resistance becomes support. The perfect way to play this is on the retest...go long...even if it meant a losing trade. Instead what did i do...I sold at a temporary resistance...the newly formed support would get hit...and id just let position retrace to entry point or stop loss. So yea..the message is clear...dont underestimate the power of the bulls..ever...even if we havent retraced at all in almost 2 weeks. The trend is your friend...your friend...your friend...or so they say


EDit: btw...notice that my current sell i am doing the same thing again!...the difference...i locked in half the profit many hours ago so i dont really care this time haha

Just scalped a few longs. That might be the best thing to do today actually, some scalps when the opportunity is there... could be that we rise a bit in the EU session then have some big retracements w/ NY session...
