Hi Gart

Good fortune for you and all

PS my experience, larger screen = "defocused attention" (large viewing angle) :nerd:

It depends on your preference.
I for one, two monitors, I would have too little information
Good trade I have nothing to do with the number of monitors.

BTW: Good ride!

I follow 2 threads closely because they have similar approaches pipeasy and fti.
Unfortunately both have not posted for some time now.
On both threads the theory has been fully explained and both now consist of people discussing there execution of the method.
Two great men if anyone knows how fti is could you let us know please.
making green pips large and red pips small this is my goal.

Just for info:

SYDNEY, Oct 03 (IFR) - Saturday's Kyodo News reported that according to sources familiar with the matter - the Bank of Japan was likely going to decide on an additional monetary easing step at its policy meeting on Monday/Tuesday. According to the report - the BOJ is apparently considering expanding its low-interest-rate funding program further to guide market rates lower. The article went on to say the BOJ is scheduled to hold a meeting as early as Oct. 28 to compile its biannual Outlook for Economic Activity and Prices report and may seek to further expand its monetary easing steps if necessary, they said. The BOJ failed to get the desired market reaction on August 30 when it launched a new 10 TLN JPY six-month operation that was an addition to a 20 TLN JPY 3-month operation. According to the Kyodo report - the BOJ is expected to discuss whether to increase the three- or six-month lending program by 10 TLN JPY, the sources said, adding it may discuss whether to launch a one-year funding operation. An option of boosting purchases of treasury bills to provide ample funds to the market is also emerging, the sources revealed to Kyodo News. According to many analysts - anything short of the BOJ expanding their balance sheet is likely going to be ineffective in containing JPY strength. There is talk of USD/JPY stops building below 82.85 that are likely going to be targeted unless there is another round of intervention coupled with the threat of the BOJ increasing QE efforts.

BTW: I'm not so sure if there are so much similarities (aside from the great experience both have) in their way of trading. But I have to confess, that I have read pipeasy's thread skin deep only.

Just for info:

SYDNEY, Oct 03 (IFR) - [Review] The EUR was the best performing currency last week - gaining 2.2% against the USD 1.0% against the JPY and 2.25% against the GBP. The EUR was supported by heavy Asian central bank buying that resulted from diversification of fresh USD reserves accumulated in very large intervention efforts by emerging Asian central banks. The EUR also benefitted from some tightening of spreads between peripheral European sovereign bonds and German bunds from record wides. Sentiment towards the EUR/USD remained bullish all week and IMM data showed net EUR/USD spec longs blowing out to 35.3 K contracts from 5.1 K contracts. [Preview] The EUR/USD might pop higher on Monday morning after China Premier Wen said this weekend that China has and will continue to buy Greek debt. Premier also unveiled a five point proposal on boosting economic ties with Greece. The major focus for the rest of the week will be whether or not the Fed will announce a resumption of QE at their Nov 2-3 FOMC meeting. There is a number of key US data snaps this week that may heavily influence market expectations on whether or not the Fed is ready to bring ion QE II. The ECB meets this week and nothing is expected to arise from the meeti8ng - but Trichet's press conference could be interesting.

Just for info:


NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Oil is regaining its status as a haven from a turbulent foreign exchange market as the world's central banks compete to devalue their currencies.

Crude futures have shot back above $80 a barrel for the first time since early August, as traders are anticipating the potential impact of a second stimulus by the U.S. Federal Reserve. The Fed's last attempt to speed up the economic recovery, by purchasing over $1 trillion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities starting in early 2009, undercut the dollar's value. Another round is widely seen kicking off a global fight among central banks to protect their economies by keeping currency values low.
[...]
The declining dollar makes commodities priced using the greenback cheaper to buy using other currencies, and investors have reacted by jumping into the oil market. Crude futures rose 6.7% this week, poking through the top of a trading range that has confined crude for months.

Good Morning Friends,

hope you have had a pleasant weekend and a good tart into the new week already.

The ongoing week will be relatively tough for me: Trying to trade for my living (as usual) but have registered for a trading contest too. Trying to win a first class trip to the last F1 race in Abu Dabi this year. Including all the neat first class service in hotel, flicght, Racing track ...
Will be tough because it requires a completely different midset to have a chance aginst "reckless gambler". So there is a good chance that I get killed in the first few days ....
The contest hast started this night 00:00 CET and the leading "gambler" has made already $286K out of his $100k starting cap.....

Hi,

Just a short update of the contest.
The leading has made now $375K out off $100K.
And I have made -6% so far.
Seems that I'm one of his hardest competitor.
I'm chasing him hard
