Marketclocks top menu is kind of screwed up, so click the map on the left for trading region.
Lists all markets except Forex.

Bottom link is Forex.

FXsolutions UK.

Easy to use platform, single click trades..

The spread on cable sucks hard...5, but I manage.

Had an account with FX USA, but when the new rules took effect the changes to the platform went for shizzle, so, I just opened a UK account and SHAZZAM, fixed everything.

yesterday 14.00 GMT when market suddenly move against USD, i had no cable trade..

i was running short euro, just in one hour my +150pips degrade to +100pips..

i was worried my last +100pips will evaporate, so i closed it..

this morning when i wake up, i see the price has move down 150pips from my closing point last night..

I learned from this story :

"while riding the strong trend, don't get distracted by every noisy move from opponent side, especially if it happen only in very short time (e.g. 1 hour)"

cross my fingers for you... risk is huge? I'll wait for a g/j break and see what g/u does from there.... IF it comes. Way to far down for me to start taking positions on g/u since I missed my entry 200 pips ago.

To each his own!

If not over night, I will hold it for next week. Down trend will continue next week for sure so no fear. GBP will go down as far as 1.5267 50% fibo.

Magix - agreed.. I'm watching h4... a full clear or 141.50-141 would be what I would call a break. Looks like it won't come soon... I'll just exercise patience... only trade it if I like it..... Opinions definitely accepted.

I only trade cable...I am not smart enough for multiple pairs. Rather than spread myself out, I stick to one, hit it hard n fast, never look back.

Even looking at the H4, it would seem to me that the short train has left the station.

24SMA redline, drop below support.

almost same with me...,i will add 2 if she goes up today..., 5495 and 5507
hope the best for us...,

edit : 1 entry is enough, 5495 (more suitable with 5507, as a strong res, but i'm afraid will not follow the tren... so i pick 5495)
I will be the number one Manager.
