I spreadbet so im paying 5 pips! But with the winning ratio and the amount of pips potentially on the table I dont mind.

Just a thought can the GBPJPY be traded in this method?

No problem my friend, keep in mind, these 10 pip candles are often followed by consecutive 10 pip candles right after the first one.... when it goes off, it goes off like a rocket (or falling star)

As far as I know Interactive brokers charges commision base solely on your lot size. http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en...?ib_entity=llc

So they give you the minimum spread which is usually at most 2 pips when slow. 1/2 pip spread is the smallest you'll get.

stinger...

can you tell , which charting software are you using with interactivebrokers...do you have to pay for it ? is it 3rd party?

also, whats the spread on EU and EJ during active and slow times ?

Thanks a lot.

Notice how quiet the market is... that's what I like in the beginning of the week because I know pretty soon during the night, it will go off... it will go off again like usual with no turning back... let's watch

I was expecting a little more volatility than that. That was disgusting. Let's wait for the next one..

either way London isn't even open yet, so it's not surprising... that was still a major move done but not enough people to follow with it... London opens in about 2 hours it's all good - minimal loss

I'm using quote tracker. I don't pay for it. The data feed is free if you have an IB account. The spread for EU is about .5 - 1 on average. EUJ is .5 -1.5 on average. IB is transparent. They do not earn commission on spread so you get lowest spreads possible.

attention 1.6300 has now created a small resistance, a large 5 sec. candle around that level is a key entry

1.6280 is an important level too watch out

good example of trade not taken on a 10 pip candle. Why? this is at the end of a down-trend... it does not break low volatility or range - not taken
