Forex is just a game, manipulated at best - fixed at worst.

Everything is about PPP & Gravity. You can only stretch a rubber-band so far.

If you don't know what Purchasing power parity, here you go

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purchasing_power_parity

PPP + laws of gravity + common sense is all you need.

-also for anyone with 'anti-gap' theory's. Please explain AUD/USD. {see image}
GAP? Well, that's no GAP. My chart shows a GAP. :-) ( Called RUnnaway GAP )

About .3%. My 4 year return is still better than most of my coworkers.
(I can't quote longer term since I've been with the company for just under 5 years however with profit sharing and 401k company matching I could claim a higher return)

I'll use risk capital on Forex, futures, and individual stocks.
Considering average inflation for 20 or 30 years being ar'd 3%, you are actually losing money with money market. I don't know how old you are but if you have a reasonable time horizon to your retirement age, I would properly diversify the portfolio and use dollar cost averaging. Just my 2c.

1521 atm is in a mapa range on one .. but if we move in that direction. by the time we get there 1429 could be support. or maybe the mid between 1429 and 1869 within a few.. another says 1894.. ill just watch and react. at the shorter term ones. we still got a decent support just below us.. but the candles say they may not hold.. ill sell tops till the floor breaks.
Agree, Daily & Weekly painting a very bearish picture, sub 18xx very possible if longer term momentum takes out these technical support levels...

I didn't say Bearish or bullish for day trading range and confirm it. as you can see in the table there are a non trading limits which will confirm the trend for me at least for the short term.

please do drop a visit to the pages it my blog to see why and how or when!

You have stated that the trend direction is UP - I fail to see how on anytime frame you arrived at up, wether for day trading or over the long term. Please help me to understand here in forex factory how you arrived at the trend being up

I am still eyeballing 5384, it is funny though how a 50pip rally gets the posters here screaming the trend is up. To each its own I guess. But heh, there is nothing wrong with trading the occasional retrace, would not call it a trend reversal though. Especially on Cable, lovely 2-way trading opportunities available most days.

2874 now, isn't it lovely how most traders here can't trade the Welly/early SY sessions?

I am going to call it quits though tonight, see y'all later. TY closed, it will probably be mostly cr@p tonight.


You haven't been back long enough yet, just wait for a 100 pip bounce on euro and Skyzer will go on about the death of he dollar for about a week and 500 dollar oil.

Abu-Rami: On your monthly chart, your second step is to draw the fibs. The fibs you have drawn clearly indicates the trend direction as DOWN on the monthly - However, you show on your chart that the trend direction is UP - Im asking how did you arrive at the trend direction being UP and your monthly clearly shows the trend direction as been down.

So am I asking you to indicate to me where and how you concluded the direction to be up

Hi all,

My 20 pip renko chart shows a 450pip downward move, there has to be a retrace soon, but IMO it could go down a bit more first. We shall see soon enough, have a good week everyone.

Yup, sensible choice. Oh, shouldn't looking at a calendar/news source be one of your first steps in preparing your trading plan for the session? Or are you like me, every session starts with a bit of entertainment and muppet spotting on the thread here, which is usually pretty easy to do, during most times you could shoot of a gatling gun in here and not hit a single trader, the muppets keep getting in the way.

Coat, hat, door. See y'all.

It should be a thorough analysis of all the technical & fundamental information available on the market/s you intend to trade, but I was always the kid doing his homework on the bus going into school in the morning, why change the habit of a lifetime?

Cheers all, catch you later in the week...
