Germany's Constitutional Court has said it will examine whether to postpone its long-awaited verdict on the eurozone's permanent rescue fund and the EU fiscal pact after a new legal challenge by a leading eurosceptic politician.

WHY????????????

What makes you think we will not have any QE? This is Ben Bernanke we are talking about, the most dovish man in Fed's history...

I can't believe it. I had stop loss at 94, position was closed at 93 and I had pending order at 75 and nothing happened!

This is a STEAL!

Stopped out at 2649.

Looking for another short around 2820
Set some limits to get me short before I left town for the weekend and only one did. 2809 short and looking for more opportunities.

Good job to everyone who got long. I certainly didnt and it cost me about 40pips.

According to Wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...By_constructor

Ford is #2 all time, behind Ferrari.


You might want to use a better example , like TAG - which are out of Switzerland. Say, your out of Switzerland aren't you? Hmm....starting to see a correlation here....


Edit --Oops...your out of Austria.....my bad.
Ohh yes ...

Possibly my fault that I didn't mention I was especially thinking in analogy to the great era when it was named "Grand Prix" not "Grand-Prix-Formula-1" ...

I was thinking about those days when races has been fought in SPA, in MONZA, in LE MANS, in MONACO, in NÜRMBURGRING (the large circuit around the castle, not the small modern times ones) or at the BERLIN AVUS!

I was thinking about those days when great names has been Rudolf Caracciola, Bernd Rosemeyer, Tazio Nuvolari, Alberto Ascari and last but not least Juan Manuel Fangio!

I was thinking at the era when Alfa Romeo has build its superb 16-cylinders rowengines or maybe at the great engines of original master Ettore Bugatti or at 16 cylinders engines from Auto-Union or those terrible good W196 original Mercedes Benz "Silberpfeil" Monopostos!

I was thinking about times when those engines and motors made a great sound and provided tremendous fun!

Sorry my dear ...

Well... You might want to show where exactly on an m5 chart happened.. If your sl was at 94 and it closed at the bid 93 (what your chart shows as a high) it is correct. The spread got you because it was closed at the ask (not sure what your spread is but it sounds just about right). If your pending at 75 was not picked up, is because the bid low is at 27746 and that is NOT 75.. You have to learn how the bid ask works.

If my assumptions are correct, your broker did not steal anything.

More then 1 pip spread when price was at 93? You have anything to track this down? It happened to me before.

Went to bed after the post you are referencing.

My bias - for Aussie? I don't have one as I very rarely trade it. Just seem strange when it was down across all major currencies, at that point, to look for an upmove. And since then there has been no positive reaction.
Hey SunTrader,

Sorry I missed your reply - just got done responding to Mercy when I remembered I had asked about this.


FWIW - you might want to take a closer look at the Aussie pairs. If my analysis is correct, the AUD will become stronger over the major pairs over the coming months.


**Edit - exception to this is the Euro.

QE bulls vs very overbought euro bears = chop chop.

You would think this would retest 2746 at some time. Maybe 2760 instead (which happens to be where bids are as well)
Be hopeful in a winning position, and fearful in a losing position.

Well weeks ago everything was ok but now...it has been happening for whole week and this can't be right.

I'm watching now at M1 chart and price was clearly 93 but position closed anyway.

I had perfect scenario sell at 88, stop loss at 94 and then buy limit pending order at 75.

Price 94 was not achieved but 75 was. But you know what, broker fucked me and stole me money!

If you want to learn something, you'll have to answer my question. If your stop loss is at 94 on a short, you are buying the pair back at 94. You are AT the bid. When the ask price comes up to 94 your position will be closed that very second. At that time your chart might show 93... The chart shows the bid price always. So 93+1(spread)=94. The broker did what you told it to do. Simple... Go to the chart properties and click the "show ask price" option.

I don't know man...in this case I sold euro at 88 (at this moment I had -1 pip) but my stop loss was at 94. Price reached 93 and its really hard to understand why position was closed.

And on the other hand I had pending order at 75. Why the hell didn't it open I don't know.

If I'm falling from a 100m high cliff and when I fall 99m down I'm not dead yet right? I'm dead exactly at 0m!

You are right, I'm not listening because I'm furious. I'll call my broker tomorrow for further explanation.

On days like this you make profit and loose all your daily profit because of this...its really irritating!

Stop loss on a sell = ask price + spread. So price was actually 94 if you had a 1 pip spread, 95 if you had a 2 pip.

We're trying to save you the embarrassment of complaining to your broker when they have done nothing wrong.

Being a broker is about the easiest way to make money legitimately. There's no reason they need to cheat and risk ruining their very profitable business of buying trading products for you, then instantly selling them to you for a slight markup (spreads/commissions)
