FXDD allows hedging in the same currency? I thought US brokers do not allow it. I see you have both buy and sale order in the same currency.
No, they do not.. not anymore. The trades show on the platform, but the Backroom does not recognize both a long and a short trade open at the same time. I just had a long discussion with an agent at FXDD about it.

EU looks like it may BO south. 1H and 4H are pointing down at the moment.

Hey guys & gals, just came accross this thread a few days ago! great stuff, very similar to what ive been doing, just trading the trendlines, 3-5 touches max. Although i dont dont use any indi, just pure PA and TL & S&R. the entry BO method is very interesting though, I use to do something similar, whenn I use to trade GJ durring JPY sessions & would try to catch the range and use the new Daily CPP to help guide me in the right direction. So i would love to implement this into my trading. Here is a trade i just took.

GU & GJ, sorry it doesnt show the entry lines, because i'm with Dukascopy.
Gu entry @ 1.6120
GJ entry @ 134.7

Personally i dont like to trade right off the 3rd touch, i like for it to move in the anticipated direction first.thanks

Most if not all demo mt4 platforms still allow hedging. Another reason never to use demo accounts and instead trade live even with a 10th of a micro, if you want to gain real trading experience.

Caught +14 on the E/U BO. Entered on the candle with the pink arrow. For a more desireable/conservative entry, I should have entered on the close of the next candle. Exit was based on the round number 1.3600 resistance.

This upper TL on the EUR goes back 3 weeks, but there is really no other place to draw one from up there. Maybe worth a watch if things turn down.

H4-3T...H1-4C-BO...All RSI's Down except for the hourlys...double ZC.
EA is having problem pushing through support.
If it can push through this, there should be some more pips down there.

Hello, this room is so quiet all day and now hardly any body here is this because of the lawsuit against some of the brokers malpractice like FXD..........and others, or why is this happening?!

Here is a short article about the complaint filed against FXDD.

http://uk.ibtimes.com/articles/11310...ainst-fxdd.htm

Quote
.... the suit alleges that FXDD has defrauded thousands of customers using deceptive and unfair trade practices, including falsely portraying its Forex trading platform as "transparent," when instead it is a "rigged game," designed to systematically separate customers from their money.

"..... Unfortunately, many Forex dealers engage in questionable practices, and we intend to pursue any and all of them until we have put an end to these abuses."

It is a class action suit filed in U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York.
