got ya same here at 1.3835what fun when your on the good side I could had made a bit more on that but again broker requoted me on close..
shit I think they all do that..


No no no - we have never slippage - or requotes - and never we have stops that are not be executed / filled at that point exactly where it was placed...

Never execution errors - never freezing prices - never slippage - never requotes - or something like that...

I always heard such things from others only ...


Ugly Online Brokers do have such things only...


But I would not be engaged with such a company - which do make advertising on cheesy pages or sites in internet - like fxstreet or what ever...


None of them I would use ...


Ha !

The fact is when you get quick movement not much can be done... I trade futures contracts... You'll get the same or worse there. Just no "broker stop hunts".

To elaborate on my previous post here is the way I traded today. Usually I trade channels..upwards, downwards, ranging...whatever. This requires two walls..the upper wall and the lower wall of a channel. If a trend is up..its preferable to buy at the lower wall. The option to sell at the upper wall is also there but it involves more risk especially when the trend may be strong.

A day like today is not a typical day though. It is hard to establish both walls of a channel. So instead of having a channel, the best tool is a simple line to show where...
Nice style and analysis. Thanks

It's very interesting to read the bulk of the messages in the last few hours about "crazy volatility". clearly, someone writing that has a) not been in this market for a while; last year we saw 'crazy' volatility: this is peanuts, b) not knowing how to position size: ie. last Thursday was 189 pips daily candle, today it's 191 pips. Under 200 pips is pretty tame if you ask me. It's not even 2%... So the lesson for today for the beginners: always account for the trading range. What will happen when this thing will move 5% per day? This is risk management 101. If you didn't blow your account today, be grateful and say "what a great field trip I just had!".

And about the near future: like I said before, market is in a falling wedge. It fell out of it (bear trap), came back, headfaked (bull trap), came back, now its to the upside with a little more conviction. The apex (conveniently located @ 3585) is @ Thursday: by then market will show true direction.

Of course, 200 ma on hourly will also meet with up tl from 3585 by then. And then upper tl of the down channel will also meet up with this up tl.

It might appear uneventful (>200 pips, yawn), but pa right now, and in the coming few days will decide the fate of the bear.

Oh, and one last thing: what I've learned over the years, is that it doesn't matter how a candle got on the chart (we know its bs today), it's still there; up the bears' ass. Are they gonna pull it and hit the bulls' eyes with it, or retreat to lick the wound. Sorry if got a little graphic.

PS, I don't know how to post charts.

crazy couple of hours, i was looking for a bounce off of 1.3700 level headed into London close but that really caught me off guard.
Have never seen the bid 30 ticks higher than the ask before.
Hope the rest of us session it trails back to where it came from 1.37 after that recent down draft to 3750

Not sure about FX market, but at least that BS Greece rumor

help stocks and they still rocking almost 200+ on DOW..

Main point is Greece would be bailed out after all US FEDS bail out

everybody Fanny/Freddie/AIG that's alone will cover whole EURO-zone

Game will be played to the end. NO debt will be paid off ever, so might

as well print more money and spend it, while it's worth something.

Whoever spends more now, will take an advantage of higher valuation

I will not be surprised if the bears come back out during the next 4 hour candle. That's after 1 pm EST.

Because it doesn't like me and went out of it's way to get my money. But other than that, I believe it's because Germany is rumoured to be bailing out Greece or something (don't take my word as gospel been a long day).

The volatility really just means that the bulls and bears were trying to figure out what is the middle ground they both agree on for now given today's news. Ironically PA is in the middle of the range from 1.3695 to 1.3840 as well. This level also acted as previous resistance, is it now support? Market makers both bear and bull haven't decided that yet hence the tight range while they make up their minds. This is the psychological approach to the charts..lol.
