Frist time, i was thinking it is difference betwen eur and usd (current rates) but 1000 is 1000 but 200 is not 280 ?????
Another way to look at is is because on your euro account your EA is not opening 1 lot, but in effect 0.73 lots so your profits are the same the lotsize (in dollars) on your euro account are just smaller.

yeah, but u trading amount isn't the same

for example - if u trade 1 standard lot, also 100,000 base currency units - so for the eur/usd that means, that u trade 100,000 € or about 135,000 USD. So it's correct if you make 200 € from a 100,000 € position and 270 USD from a 135,000 USD position.

it's correct.
200 € x 1.36 = about 280 USD.

it's coz u trade lots, so if you trad 1 standard lot of eur/usd u trade 100,000 € as in the 1,000 EUR acc as also in the 1,000 USD acc. The only differene is, that in the 1,000 USD acc your leverage is about 135:1 while in the Eur acc it's 100:1 - but the traded amount is always the same. So the profits, calculated are always 200 € or 280 USD.
No, i told you 280 it is not same every day or week sometimes it is 350 not 280, lok this i tried to chnge this in another currency for examle in my National currency for example for 1000 eur i have to change 1950 my National currency and i send it to my broker afther a month i have 200 eur it is 390 of my National currency it is gain 20% but on another side for 1000 usd i have to change 1400 of my National currency and i send it to my broker afther a month i have 280 usd it is 280x1.4 (my National currency) = 392 my National currency it is gain of 28%

Freddy I am on your side in this one guy gives me liquidity providers last night and tonight the other won't confirm. I called them and reamed their dealing desk a new one. Their ecn does not have high spreads in fact it's under 2 pips on the powertrader. I told them I would be happy to get lawyers involved. I need to call back tomorrow as well.

I went short at my bear point (Thick orange line). Price retraced back to my bear point and I am now short. Hopefully it will respect the first trendline and we see some further moves down, although there is a very decent demand level at 1.3441-1.3468 and this is my 1st target and 1.33 is now a likely target.

Wish you success with your trading!

yeah - i can tell u why:
on your usd accounts u r using a higher leverage.

lets say u trade 1 standart lot of eur/usd - so 100,000 €
in your Eur acc. you have 1,000 € and with that you open 1 lot (100,000 €) (so you have a leverage of 100:1), and you make a gain of 200 €. that is a gain of 20%

in you USD acc. you have 1,000 $ and with that you open 1 lot (100,000 € = 135,000$) (so you have a leverage of 135:1), and you make a gain of 280 $. that is a gain of 28%

it's because you are trading always the same standart lot - so always 100,000 €, in both accounts.

if you want to avoid that, you should implement that it opens 1 standart lot (100,000 €)in your eur accounts and 0.74 standart lot (74,000 € or 100,000 $) in your USD acc.

Heya BB!

Looks like they want to test the high again, if they break it then our trades are in BIG trouble... I'd be stopped anyways

The short-term trend remains bearish and with no obvious potentially-bearish events looming for the USD, selling rallies looks like the easier trade intraday. Some cross pairs like EUR/CHF look to be turning bearish again and the other two major crosses, EUR/JPY and EUR/GBP, are consolidating. Momentum is lacking so don’t be looking for substantial session ranges.
I’d expect the overnight high around 1.3565 to again prove hard to overcome and dips should be limited to the 1.3460 overnight low. My best guess at this stage is for a session range of 1.3490/1.3555.

I have no idea what is going to happen. I have setup my trades as I see them and let the market do whatever it has to do. If I get stopped out that is OK, because I have already made it a free trade after cashing in some of my position after 40 pip gains, so I can leave my SL where they are on both AU and EU in case it does come back to those levels.

I can sleep well tonight and might wake up to a nice surprise in the morning

AAH! those are the BEST nights ever... I didn't get such a good entry as I can't look at charts while running around in zero degree weather with rain pouring like slush (half snow half rain!)...

Got in as soon as I got back seeing what was happening. Did get in a bit early on the 1st entry at 3529 and the second I got in on break of 3527 on m30. Got a close but seems we back up again!

Got s/l above Highs as this is also the 61.8% retrace of the recent down move...

Good luck brother and drop me a PM on whats happening with your trading!

Hola amigo.

See you live in Sao Paolo.

One of my students has invited me to an all paid vacation next year in February to come and stay with him and do live training.

Maybe we can see each other.


..and yes, good place to live, except for the disgusting gays that seem to like this place also. In their own country they would not dare to behave the way they do here............but no problem, also the criminals from the USA and Canada are getting picked up with the joint ventures with the Mexican police.

ALL is not as you see on TV.

Alright mate. Hope you are well!

My view on your second chart is that this has already played out yesterday. As Sam Seiden says, always use the freshest levels!

Therefore below the current demand level 3441-3468, I have the next one at 3379-3417 on my h4 chart.
