In any case and to wrap up, I am with you in the fundamental side but in the TA side I keep with what my chart showing and I wont take a daily/weekly long until timing (the timing in my charts of course) is right. So good luck with your positions.

Ok, thank you, good charting.. However, I think resent drop was fueled

not as much by Ireland problems, but mostly Chinese rate hike fears,

at least that's why commodities was sold off, while USDx didn't show

any additional strenght.. 2 main drivers here. #1) is Chinese and

then PIGGS/Ireland, which in my view has only secondary effect..

Those PIGGS stories getting too OLD and whoever recreating SPAM media

compaign might not reach desirable results. IMHO 1.36+ is nice reversal

point.. We'll see how it goes..

It won't be too difficult to see the difference (I have a 3 retail feeds), but when do you call it an anomaly is a tough one...depends on their hedging policies, and risk control.

Just simply publish the spikes that other brokers nor Interbank have and make it searchable for the members here, so they can have evidence of broker games right in front of them when they call up their broker.

It makes taking your broker to account a lot easier if you can show that they were the only one with price at a certain level out of 50 or so and compared to Interbank.

Wonder on which side the OANDA spread will be when the "real" trading starts.
1.3697 or 1.3707. Thats a lot of difference for my 1M and 5M trading style...

@Cloggie:
Do you treat these "pre-retail-market price extremes" as special zones for mondays trading? If they can't push prices any further without opposition, makes me think that smart money has some interest to protect them...

OF course I do, the Welly open was protected, so it is of interest to me.

But just like Gator, my week ends tonight at 0000 London time, so as long as Welly stays below the close of the week, it is only a minor level.

Can that be done without an API access? I guess if the broker doesn't object to you going through a proxy (and the feed is not encrypted), you can keep a copy of all prices.

It is one of the improvements I would like to see FF make, the problem of course is that the brokers are a source of revenue for FF.

FF should become more independent from the brokers anyways.

appears that they didn't have the daylight savings timeshift, so sydney isn't even open atm according to oanda.

SY opens in 45, however SY has an official pre-market session that started an hour ago. It is the only one of the biggies that do that. Historically they started to do that to line up with Welly as they are the only 2 of the biggies in the world open at that time.

See here:

So the boys are in queing up their orders and while they are at it play the Welly markets and the currencies.

If I remember next weekend, I'll start my oanda feed earlier than the usual 7pm GMT. Will see, which way the spread closes. It is still 10.

there are different pa between brokers i noticed that at the FOMC meeting.

I was looking at one which i believe that they are not an ECN but they say they are and another.
The price at ECN had come to the level 400 while other showed 440, then ECN showed a spike while other was at 400. If i had the courage i good get a 100% trade cause price at non ECN was delayed by 2-5 seconds.

That i dont start for an other broker at nfp... I was just looking the price was so corrupted there, didnt match no ones feed..

There are plenty of the pro's in the City that play anomalies on retail platforms, the Yen carry trade was a big one a few years ago that made them quite a mint for not doing a lot except take advantage of retail anomalies. I love it when the pros get back at retail brokers and play them at their own game.

I stay out of these events. To many chances for loosing first here is your broker and the second the wacky pa( still i make a entry in my head- look for a reasonable support and just watch.. got to say i get the levels quite good but wont risk on these ones)...

But one friend of mine bought there didnt know even what was happening, he got lucky..

First i build my acc. then go to futures and then only would trade those events.
Dukas price is quite good during these times... Dont know about the fills?

Hi driver , you may asking this indicator , can see the curreny chart ( any pair though with or without may at a time) & levels can add manually of your interest any number .
and just drag & drop any indicator that open separate window on to this same window. picture here rsi & momentum asdded to eu with lines .
thanks ,'fontu
Hi Fontu,
I tried doing a drag drop .... but without success.
Can you explain me how to do this?
The best thing that can happen to you is to find out where you're wrong.
