Spot FX Day Trader's Thread

up 35 and giggling..

pretty crazy day... I'm up 20

got stopped out of 1st ej long but for better or worse I'm back long from 11390 and going virtually nowhere so far

Just scrolled up to find medieval utterings posted in the early hours. This thread can be so diverse, swinging from heavy metal one moment to anglo saxon history.Those Normans were a right bunch of rampaging conquest merchants. I think they gave the Saxons a bit of a pasting after they invaded England, scary times, a bit like some of my trades!

I've missed the moves of the day, flat for the weekend, back for more bad trading next week...

The Normans were brutish thugs who could give Julius Caesar a lesson on raping and pillaging. What did you expect from Viking ancestors?

I'm in EU and GJ up 5 pips collectively after being as much as 100 pips down collectively. I held through the weekend because I love the uptrend in EU and the JPY needs to pop due to UJ's proximity to the all-time low intervention levels. The path of least resistance is up.

I'm with ye, it's time to get in on the trend in these babies and hold(easier said than done in my case)

waiting for a bit of a pullback to get long ej...

up 76 on EU .. will hold

You're too disciplined man, I can't take it! The 5,3,3 smoothed stochastic is out, attempting to get a good entry.

short aussie (contrarian or what!?) from 9870 stop 9919 target 9795

I'm not standing in the way of this uptrend anymore... If it reverses, so be it..

Your right to take that view mate. Its damn hard to make money against some of the trending we've seen in recent times. I'm holding onto my aussie short for now, up 35 overnight thank the forex gods

ugh.. 35 pips down on EU.. but I wouldn't be surprised to see the USD pounding continue in the next few days.

closed aussie for +1 pip. It's a good job I don't rely on this to eat!

I do.. and it's getting old.

I should have taken profit on EU..

hmmm.. spoke too soon.. this looks MUCH better

Mate do not despair, we will overcome the forex conundrum. We will not be beaten by the market, we will fight them on the beaches. You will not starve. Maybe we need to start system trading instead!?

I'm delayed three hours mate, off to Yerevan for the first time. I've been reading a blog about a couple of American guys living there/chasing ladies/drinking, sounds like a crazy place.
