You have a good broker, ours are greedy 9 pips spread but i have to bite the bullet GJ delivers double. GJ is GUxUJ
This quote shed a lot on how I will trade in the future. I know that the formula is probably really basic but I am new to trading all three pairs and the formula helped me nab about $1,000 in a short time frame. I am learning as I go. A few lessons have been expensive but I am trading pretty conservative. Thanks so much for your help.

Trader,

You may find it funny, but is used to say this in the early part of this thread.."All my ducks are now coming back" or "this is my bus ride home". Some of those loyal reader of this thread understand what i mean. In tech term G/J (being the strongest) my indicators give a reverse signal. Not just a rebound...

Two of the other JPY pairs had just cross my sell region the CAD and AUD but i need confirmation from my other indicator, I used to say before ...my ducks are slowly swimming to the other side of the river and im waiting for them to come up. The confirmation sometimes will occur between 30 min to 1 hour.

Did you get to capture any of those GJ pips? I'm thankful I didn't follow you on that one. I was actually still long and closed one pip from peak on that Brown announcement. I almost suffered a huge hit on that one. All the best. - P
