EURUSD looking like it wants to target the highs again.

What do you guys think?

No way to tell, odds are it'll go down, but it's in middle ground so risky to go short as you'll need a huge SL, I'll start shorting around 1.3415 then 1.3440 then SL at 1.3465.

Just set orders and see what happens incase there is a move over night.

Might not fill ofcourse, but never mind patience is key.

Yep. That's what I always do. Sell limit and buy limit. Tops and bottoms. Set and forget.

I don't think there are any US brokers that open up until 6 pm eastern time, and unfortunately because of Dodd-Frank, US citizens can only trade with US brokers. The US brokers must've donated quite a bit to get that legislation included in the over-haul of the US financial system regulations.
Someone may have responded to this already but I didn't see the post. Any US citizen can open a forex account to any broker who does not have offices in the United States, therefore, I can and am going to open a Dukascopy account in January. I can trade with none of the Frank-Dodd restrictions. I'm not waiting for the Tweedledee-Tweedledum legislation to be repealed.

US brokers hate this legislation. They are losing their clients to overseas.

Tops and bottoms are generally tradeable with large 50ish SL's.

Same here. Making more money in my sleep some nights than I do at my day job (JOB = Just Over Broke). And trading off the daily works better for me than the lower TF.

It's common knowledge that US Traders can only have accounts with US brokers. Dukascopy closed out all their US client accounts last July.

The fool is right, they locked everyone into USA brokers, all the FXCM UK users in america got move back to the USA accounts where the Margin requirement is much higher.

The same as all none USA gambling / poker / whatever sites got IP blocked to keep the losses internal. ( this made a lot of people in the UK which where making a lot of money of drunk rich yanks go back to work )

Each and every broker has a different set of rules. As a US citizen i can open a dukascopy account if I can prove I am not resident in the US. Other brokers do not allow me to open an account even if I am not resident in the US. One american broker will not allow me to open an account if I am using a Canadian bank account.

It is a real mess.

I thought this was common knowledge but apparently it's not. I'm told there are brokers closing down their US operations because of this.

Call any broker that does not have offices in the US, they will tell you that you can open an account with them. Some brokers may not accept US accounts for other reasons, but US has no jurisdiction over foreign corporations with no connection to US.

You tell me how I'm getting an account with Dukascopy. You need to read the Frank-Dodd Act.

Taigen,

I had an account with Dukascopy and had to stop trading on it due to the change in US regulations. As it is true that the US doesn't have any jurisdiction, most of the brokers are honoring the act regulations. I still have money in the account over there, I just can't trade it unless i qualify as a professional.

Fin FX is the best overseas option for Americans. I am still thinking about opening an account with them because this Dodd Frank crap is insane.
