what u mean bro... Perfect synch FA and TA.... Ecb almost guaranteeing some form of QE and rate cuts...we couldn't have asked for mor clarity....

In any case +250 ticks for the day in the euro ...I think we have enough considering that we have NFP tomorrow....

Solid day here ...hope u r doing well too

Partials out on +45 and +70. Will risk the highs (+a few) on the rest, and look to add. Still see 5000?

So far so good!

Was doing that a few weeks ago. Always pips to be made on the counters, but dayum...did this pair feel heavy! I was pulling pips ($)...but my neck hurt at the end of every day.

I know you're an emotionless robot when trading...so maybe you don't have that problem!

AND...

I pay a commission on the way in (reasonable)...but get positive swaps being short. As you can probably tell...have never traded FTSE futures live. Just spent the last few weeks tracking it pretty close, getting used to the flows. Only ever used it as a source to take the "pulse" of the market. But...

What's up with the swaps? Would you receive swaps being long as well? Haven't got my head around that yet, but DO love positive swaps!

Tempted to buy some Gold soon, but a solid NFP could be very detrimental to that plan. May sit on my hands...er, my EA and FTSE positions.

Girlie's getting pampered. Just chilling for a couple hours myself.

Will be in and out (opening door for room service drinks more like ), but not far, if any bastards are about. Any more pips to be made today, or is that a wrap? NFP pre-positioning complete?

indeed, but really... quite some nice support (should) now be turning resistance after a new all-time low? I think I'll take my chances holding my shorts

Hey KB, I checked out that EA you have to manage positions on the chart. It was working alright, but now when I move SLs they start flashing back and forth between the new and previous position. Any idea how to fix that?

try to restart platform because sometimes lagging. but for me everything good.

if EA put SLs you cant change TF on that chart where you put this EA. you have to make a new chart with your template but without EA. Dont put EA on same instruments. maybe you have one instrument 2 charts ?

Yeah...

Don't be such a dick and you might get a fix!

I kid, I kid...but is it not easier to let the market do the laughing for you sometimes? From an observational point of view...its certainly more pleasant!

How ironical ()...the very man you just "hahaha'ed" at, is the man you now seek assistance from!?

I'm just having some fun here...but still...anyone else see the irony?
