I don't do anything with volume as it is worthless with spot-forex, futures are centralized in Chicago {I think}, but there isn't anyway to detect spot-forex volume.
Have you tracked the Euro futures to the E/U spot FX? You should, they move pretty much the same and futures has real volume to track. IMHO

what the heck is this graph ...all garbage and full of stupid @ss indicators
please do not post garbage here ...
What classy comments. Why do people conduct themselves like this and then expect respect and assistance, when in fact they know so little of the tools that are out there, choosing to diss what they don't know. People demand quality and free (and correct) advice, yet can't show humility and regard.

I regret answering your earlier question.

There probably is but you'd have to pay alot or have a high account min.

You can use tick values as volume and still have some understanding what SM is doing at the time.
Sorry don't mean to argue, but you cannot track Volume in spot-forex, as you would have to gather data from every bank, company, trader, and analys that data. You can only speculate ... and that speculation is based off of nothing.

You can take indications of what the market is doing, but there is no way to track volume. The day that there is, that developer of tracking volume will be the next billionaire as big banks & big business will pay for that information.

I guess when I think about it {but to answer your question no} but I just don't know enough about it & seems a little to risky for me ... and really no point to follow one for another.

But it is just centralized, the futures that is, so I will take your advice/suggestion and look into it. Interesting to see how it tracks together.

for the 3rd time, {not arguing, just stating},

'EUR Euro-Zone Consumer Price Index Estimate '

is due up in 3.5 hours {12gmt}, euro will probably rally before that + about 10 other news events going on.

I sold off my short at 1.3080 & I am scalping now, but I am going to go short again here in a bit a add more risk {pips} as the news flows out.

You wouldn't have access to track the whole market obviously... but if you have a direct line with a bank then it might be possible but only from that liquidity provider. If its a reliable one then it might be ok but if not then tick volume will do

Sorry, but to me that is like taking a 100 people and judging if anyone has an STD based off of testing 1 person.

I don't think there is any solid look at volume other then seeing if volume is going up or down. This is my opinion of course, I am just saying, if that networking capability was achieved along with cooperation from ... everyone, well then you literally accomplished world peace as in the 'biggest' players in the forex markets are the central banks.

Ok, fair enough, but I've been tracking the E/U and Euro futures for a few months and it does move pretty much the same. I am planning to start trading futures in Jan but only during the London/NY overlap. The first hour of NY open is where most good trades come from.

To add to my argument or "difference of opinion for a lack of a better term" against you.

2 things

1. A LOT of news from the U.S. coming out a few hours after EURO news.

2. 3 words 'USD Consumer Confidence'

If the USD Consumer Confidence is good, risk is going down, especially if EURO news is bad.

I dont get what you are telling me. I know the fundamentals and news releases going on there is a little more than meets the eye right now. Euro has tons of news coming out and so does USD.

I dont have alot of faith in consumer spending over holidays. I dont have alot of faith in $ and I dont have alot of faith in Euro. I am only trading what it is that I see based on the overall economic conditions.


Mike i see through your posting you have some scalp trades going on. Do you have a longer term short or long that you are in that you are unsure of? I am getting a feeling you are trying to find a reversal on some drawdown on a particular trade you are in?

You need understand the trend I am looking at might not be what you are looking at

I dont get what you are telling me....
sales were up 6% for the weekend for holiday shopping.

to tell you the truth, I went short for long term. cashed out at about .3080 & then I am scalping.

if we reach .3150 I will go long & just riding it out, if we go below .3060, I am going short again.

I have to admit, the Euro is looking oversold so I don't know. No one does, I am just riding it out right now as risk is to high.
