One of the first things I was cautioned about in trading forex...though no broker was recommended, none were specifically named as demons...but if ya take a read through some of the complaints you will see close prices that are time stamped that are outside of the trade ranges....
I just as much as anyone don't like the regulation that is starting to come out ... but they 'are' there for a reason, if the broker isn't registered then don't use them ... if they are, file a complaint ... complaints collectively can and will do damage to a broker.

On a side note, dodds-frank act ... Chase is going to stop their rewards program coming up soon ... for my home business stuff I use my reward card for everything and for them to take that away ... I think this act is seriously going to hinder the profit margins on banks ...

Just commented on that because it will have adverse affects on everyone.

Does the name Alan Sokol mean anything to you?

And RE the FXCM suit, I was going to say, so I'll say it here in the interest of saving ink: it looks like they're going with Civil RICO. Not widely used, but when it is, with the right judge, it's very potent.
Few individuals are to smart for their own good ... Sokol - truly one of em'

I don't know. I think he showed just how easy it is for a group of people to get so full of themselves that they're no longer willing to separate form from substance.

FoLo is when Frankfurt and London openings conspire
Then shouldn't that be FaLo? No, that's wrong. Darn Germans, running two consonants one after the other.

[EDIT]: Never mind. I get it. The 'o' is for opening. Yeah, after even a good fraction of 38 years, the Look can be sensed, it doesn't need to be seen.

Probably not worth the server space it takes up, but do I ponder this weekly chart from time to time with a very old fib from Back in the Day...

52ooish... 29ooish... 18ooish... If I knew for sure, my next trade would be my last trade... but alas...

Damn.

Morning all. Am in long from 1.4236 / target is 1.4276 (just under 1.4282 which is murrey math resistance on the 1H). To me everything still pointing up. Lets see.....
I have taught myself to be a very patient trader and I waited all day for my TP which did not get hit. I was in bull mode so was quite happy to wait. Ended up closing my trades manually at a 40 pip loss before going to bed and I see it got all the way down to 1.4154. Anyway, can't win them all and today is a new day.....lets see where to next....
The forex market has its own life and takes its own time.

So you lost one, so what. No one is going to win them all. I am no expert in FX but I have traded stocks since '84 when the cutting edge thing was that you could call a recorded message from your broker and you could actually get the closing price 2 hours after the market closed instead of waiting for the morning paper. No high, no low, no open...just close. Wow, at the time I thought I was living in the promised land. Does any other oldsters remember those times?

Anyway VILGAX I just wanted to say I love your attitude and I truly believe that in the long run it will make you a winner if you are already not.
