I beg to differ.
I agree, going to stick out neck again, no longs until 1.4 creamed, breached retest and reject, so I stick to shorting, it will be an iteresting moment if or when 1.4 does go,
Agree is was new high, dont trust until confirmed, and is irrelevant in bigger tf's
Building position in prgress 1st fill was 3988 sl 4015

Oanda does not make sense. I can't believe that.
I might believe it. I'm not as familiar with Oanda anymore, but back in the day when I was conducting broker research, I recall their allowable leverage being much smaller. Maybe even 33:1 (can anyone confirm or deny this?).

If that is the case, Oanda would attract a trader that is more risk averse and careful and detract the ones that are wanting to make a quick buck and strike it rich in FX... those that are more prone to over-leveraging their accounts. By default, Oanda's trader base would be a less risky, less leveraged, and more disciplined one. This could account for the large difference with their data.

Oanda currently allows 50 to 1 leverage just like most other brokers.

Yup, their max leverage is 50:1 and they strongly suggest 20:1 or even 10:1. It would be very interesting to see their profitable accounts based on the leverage utilized. In theory, a group of traders using 50% less leverage could easily result in 100% more profitable traders. Since the average broker was showing about 25% profitable accounts, you could see how Oanda could produce 50% profitable accounts:

Hii

I am new member, in first message, would like to share my real trading exp what was happened yesterday.

I was nicely caught into short trade, then booked min profit went to sleep(thought it would be bearish coming days). just now woke up and saw it has triggered the min profit, i m very disappointed by it. this is called half baked trader's skill.

My mistake was, I only heard one side of the news, ignored/unaware of end of summit information.

Hope I will correct my mistakes in future. I am living just by trading nothing more...

Nice call.
Wasn't really a call... just an observation. It could be enticing if that level is broken and buying on a retest. However, I'd rather stay away from it as a I believe GBP/USD will follow EUR/USD higher, however, at a slower rate. USD/JPY will probably continue to lack much movement, resulting in a somewhat soggy GBP/JPY. The only way I see GBP/JPY getting an real legs any time soon is if BoJ intervenes on USD/JPY, but I never bet on that... fools game.

Yup, it'll go down... just not yet. Everything will be rainbows, lollipops, and unicorns for awhile. We need some serious shit to hit the fan to get everyone to fess up that this is 2008 all over again. The thing is, I don't know if 2008 #2 will be in 2011 or 2012. I've said it before... Obama wants to be re-elected. Although the US isn't in the limelight right now, we have the same (if not worse) problems as the EU. But anyone who has seen this show before knows that the current prez will do anything to prop up the market in hopes of re-election. I'll ride the wave until I'm told otherwise.
