Banks love volatility. It increases their trading profits.

We reaffirmed our shared interest in a strong and stable international financial system, and our support for market-determined exchange rates. Excess volatility and disorderly movements in exchange rates have adverse implications for economic and financial stability. We will consult closely in regard to actions in exchange markets and will cooperate as appropriate.

Yeah it hasn't been working for me either, I have a demo account with them just for the news. May try to talk to a rep see what's going on. I'll check back if I figure anything out.

Just talked to a rep. It's because it is a demo account. A live account will show the 4cast feed.

Yeah but that's a technical issue not a permanent restriction i think. I have talked to a rep too and he said he checked it himself and told me that he will report it to technical staff.

I hope that's the case. 4cast can provide some pretty accurate information on bids offers.

yeah that's why i am so concerned too cause i am not planing to open an account Oanda anytime soon.

Also I think 4cast provides OF info more than IFR and Fxlive combined.

Insane indeed, Asia has been buying the shit out of gold. First Tuesday in the world and the global equity sell off continues.

Edit: Ha! there goes another one of those crazy USD/JPY spikes

One big non-Japanese bank places large bids on the EUR/JPY, leading to sharp gains in the cross as well as the USD/JPY, say two senior dealers in Tokyo. The EUR/JPY is at 109.70 after rising as high as 110.57 from 109.45 before the bids, while the USD/JPY is at 77.18 after rising as high as 77.85 from 77.09. Both dealers say the move isn't due to any intervention by Japanese monetary authorities. "These wannabe players often place big bids these days as they try to scare other participants that Japan's in," one dealer says.
That's baller as fuck. I wonder how much money it takes to make someone think you're BOJ.

hey guys, any idea for the drop in e/u today? I'm thinking the massive demand today for US treasurys, with equity markets all over the world going into meltdown. Any thoughts?

A shit ton of money. One really really big market order. Darkstar would probably be able to take a decent guess at the actual amount.

I received this email today from an email last week I sent asking about 4cast.


Please note that 4Cast news is no longer available to fxTrade Practice account holders. This service will only be available fxTrade account holders. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.


Hmm. No minimum deposit at Oanda.. Maybe going to throw a little money in an account there just to have the service.

After the last major BOJ intervention I calculated it out to ~$28m per pip... so 100 pip move = $2.8 yards or so. Thats a big order but not all that uncommon for the pair. Course that kind of size is usually run off with limits...

The BoJ intervention reached 10 trillion yen or about 130 bln dollars.
