5-7 seconds ... that is a lot ... !

but how do you check that ... that this assumption is a fact ... ?
No, it's a fact - average of a 5 seconds delay.

My broker is not integrated on the Meta4... so I have to open another tab for trades with IG Index and have been watching both for a while. Trading platform on IG sucks too..

I'm on a job contract in the Middle East and in between Afgh/Iraq so you understand where I am coming from when I say about internet speed. To be honest back in the UK it was lagging behind a little as well but not that much.

I don't have many indicators on it so it's not the reason.

To clarify... No, I really DON"T want to know anything about you, cuz I just don't care. But all your Blah-Blah about the gap was just too funny to pass on... I mean "sometimes it takes days for a gap to fill.. but it eventually does" is a bit like saying "eventually Spring will come" but I still wouldn't stand outside all winter in my birthday suit for it to do so...

And it's "kindda obvious from your post earlier" that you did trade...
hehe, thanks again, sherlock.

i put him on my black list quite a while ago, but as soon as he wanted to claim gator's left nut, he moved his position upwards.

the internet speed isn't really the problem, it's the latency.

Hey guys,

Made a couple (70) pips on USD/Jpy, too bad I bailed early!

Got stopped on my long in Cable, too bad as she really did run! (-30 pips)

Missed fibres run but got in on a double short at 3418 with s/l at BE now...

wormboy--that bearish engulfing candle tells me nothing about eur "extreme" bearish ,and this one single day dont tell me even more bullish to 1.55-- 1.55 is only a level that you will see where a lenghty consilidation is likely with overshoots testing 1.6 --until we are over 1.6 the next bunch of levels will come-- i dont predict where and when-- but thats just one plain simple fact -nothing else --i do see the crowded traders say beaiish--even saying parity and that bunch of crap --

im not interrested in where and when --- i will stick to...
I buy and sell. Don't care if we go to 1.55 or 1.00. I don't like to pontificate because it is a waste of time. Short-term I see Euro weakness because that is what the chart tells me.

Nice chart Wormie!

I was wondering if a few of you would post what you have for the E/U Average Daiy Range (ADR).

The reason I ask is, I have 3 ADR indicators all with different values, ranging from 98 to 146. It would be nice to know which is correct.
Thanks
I trade what I see on my charts. Do Not listen to the Muppets.

so your saying a day trumps the monthly?

im not interrested in that monthly chart at all-- i only point it out-- euro can dip way below 1.16 and that bullish trend is still intact--so its kinda useless really--

btw --euro is now on its way to 13720 (that will be your last level where the bears will fight back) if it goes above it ,and took out the prev high(daily (13780) --then the bulls got total control ,and they will take it 13860 --- MAJOR level---- i only see it to that far ---( im finished with predictions years ago) -- play only wht i see ..

you point out last week about that 13250 level ? right---and yes ,that level will be the support right now---the bulls will defend that level.. the orders flooded that level right now and longs are placed ---the orders stay there it wont go anywhere -even if it stays untested--

13729 is an untested level -- you will see when we hit that level --the short orders stays there--it wont go anywhere --as when we hit 13729 --you will see how it bounce---but till where ?? how strong is the bulls?? that we dont know--if the bulls keep pushing for 13780--then game over for bears until 13860---- i dont see further than that right now--only time will tell --- i only swing it --- and 13720 is my offloading zone (maxmimum) --wait for dips to buy again...hope that make sense -

lets see --- its only speculation ,and my limits i do target---

the market can change like lightning --

ps ( im still keep buying eur/aud ) love it --- 2000 pips ?? easy -(ps i see 6000 pips and more ) ---but lets not go there -- but 2000 pips is short term target

gator -
I have been following your trades as of late, and have profited well, so I thank you for taking the time to post entry and TP here... it has helped tremendously... when I see you post, I turn to charts and confirm on my own, then go in with you.

I am in on AUD/USD Long @99.64 with you...

here's to more greenies!

thanks,
BLES5ED
Would not recommend that as the AUD/USD has been correlating in parallel with EUR/USD as of late.

EUR/USD is most likely on a retrace to the 3380/3300 zone before any further upward movement, if upward movement is in the forecast.

I suggest a very loose SL, and even then, parity may not be in the weekly forecast for the AUD/USD pair.

Just my 2 cents.

one bullish day & you're calling 1.55

let me refresh your memory.
WOW, this market sure is moving fast???

Thought things slow down around this time of year?

Went straight up and seems like we going straight down again

Might extend my TP a bit

He really needs to ping the country where your broker's servers are located to get a valid reading. Go to http://www.pingtest.net/ and select a server based in the same country as your broker.

100ms is acceptable. Anything above 500ms and you will have issues!
