I use Onanda. I like that I'm not limited to pre determined lots, I can buy or sell from 100 (1 cent per pip) to 99,999,999 (10K per pip) and enything in between ( I'm not at the 10k per pip trades) depending on pair I can go maybe 8k on something like NZD/USD 7k or so on AUD/USD. I have a NZD/USD short going since tuesday at 8390 so all I could afford to buy right now on AUD is arround 2k more per pip but that would be cutting it too close for comfort because if NZD goes up and AUD down I could get margined out if I bought more AUD. I don't normally...

On Oanda platform 10,000,000 is maximum per trade.

Come on mate, you can't even spell Oanda properly or show any signs of having a profitable strategy of some sort, but want us to believe you're trading 350 lots per trade? By manually entering a trade? Scalping while risking 80% of your account?
I call bullshit.

On Oanda platform maximum per trade is 100 lots.

Whattt??? Come on!!! When you use Oanda you type in the figure you want to purchase. From 1 to 99,999,999 that equals $10,000 U.S per pip. 10,000=$1 100,000=$10 1,000,000=$100 10,000,000=$1,000 and full in is 99,999,999=$10,000U.S or any amount you like, (it could be 132,483 if you like)... If you use Oanda you should know that! There are no set number of lots like some other brokers use. Maybe they have a micro lot account available that I'm not familiar with that limits you to trading for cents.... I would rather collect cans at 5cents a pop than do this for pennies.

just because you can type in a number doesnt mean oanda can actually fill the order at your quoted price

This is an official response of oanda from FXtrade frequently asked questions What is the minimum and maximum trade size?
"There is no minimum trade size with OANDA - you can trade as little as $1.
The maximum trade size is 10 million units. For example, if you were trading EUR/USD, the maximum trade you could make would be for 10 million EUR. Note that you can make more than one trade of 10 million units if you would like your position size to be larger than this limit." I think you're not oanda client because you don"t know oanda have one type of account for all. Oanda don"t have micro or standard account.

Greek leaders agreed on the bailout, I think no more euro troubles, might aud might bounce back up.

the greek vote is an interesting situation. while I agree that a vote 'yes' will lead to a relief rally of some kind, there is still an enormous amount of uncertainty very soon. greek parliament elections were moved up to April 2012. if austerity goes through, there will be some significant civil unrest that could lead to mass dissent amongst greek citizens who would have voted for a pro-EU party. that dissent could lead to an entirely new government that gives the rest of the world the finger and jumps right into a disorderly default.

AUD/USD @ 1.0683

Good sell off Friday after a week of bullish undertone.
Aussie banks raising interest rates despite RBA and treasurer Swans dismay.
All eyes on the bubble n squeaks today.
Even if they do agree it wont last long before we are back to this crap again.
Unfortunately they need to default and go it alone.They were lured into the EU under false pretences.

Today 1.0630-50 support 1.0750 resistance subject to news.
Keep position size small and expect the unexpected.

AUD/Crosses - we have had a nice rundown and a base seemed to have formed late last week.
Be paitent and wait for the next clear pattern.

Good luck

ok no problem good luck, may the force be with you. This thing may shoot up or down as big money hasn't entered, usually better to wait for a retrace to the move.

If only you practised what you preached. Post when you enter positions and your t/p and s/l instead of just preaching then perhaps people will actually listen to you.
