i dun know if you noticed or not, but we seem to be in a massive selling pressure

i have access to reuters ifhr which gives me info on what big doggs are doing their trade deals, i am not a simple mt4 trader now, i upgraded in Jan

i see sell orders suddenly vanishing to reappear and get traded at convenient prices.

Hi forexlion,
the topic with reuters ifhr sounds very interesting, is it something like esignal? Do you have a link, where i can get this data feed? How much do they charge for this service? TIA

I don't see massive pressure to be honest. Unless you mean the larger downtrend, after bouncing off yesterday's low level test, cable had paused.
I didn't know you're trading a more complicated system sorry. Thought I remembered not too long ago you were trading off dp at day open, something which I use myself. Thought you might have missed that I gave you a shout.
Carry on buddy & good luck
Thank You

I saw you erased your earlier post, but wanted to ask, why does your bank only allow you to trade $25 a pip at 1:1 leverage? That seems kind of unreasonable.
its called cash transaction

open a current account with your local bank either as usd account or euro account

then buy pound or any other currency at the prevailing bank rate and sell for profit

loss is limited and there is no risk of margin calls cause you are taking physical delivery of cash.

Anyone who posts a link claiming to be their account with a 100% win rate on 147 or whatever trades are trying to pull the wool over people's eyes. Losing trades are a fact of life. It is not how much you make, it's how much you lose and the secret is to have more winning trades with a higher profit margin. If it was in jest that makes it even worse. It scares me that you are actually the forum administrator of this thread.

You're physically taking delivery of the currency. Does this suit the requirements of your business?

This type of trading is pointless for all retail traders on this forum, as transacting in this manner incurs costs for the processing of the payments and the maintenance of the foreign currency accounts, most of which will show up in wider spreads and/or transaction charges.

1.4945 a definite short term support level and any up move limited to 1.4995. A scalpers paradise at the moment with zero trend appearing on a 5/15 chart.

Waiting for 1.4945 to break before entering short. Long doesn't appeal to me in the slighest with 1.4995 resistance and 1.5010 slightly further up.

Cheers.

Even though there's the risk of a margin call using leverage, you have less capital exposure as well. I guess each of us weighs the benefits differently.
the bank allows you to hold a position for 6 months without taking delivery if you wish to

by the way

this kind of squeeze normally leads to a major breakput of 200 or more pips
