I closed yesterday basket at 240+ pips after london close.
Today I bought basket at frankfurt open, HAS had just turned bullish, currently 140+ pips
didnt take the short signal in the middle of the night (and even if I was awake for me it was not a wise decision to enter in the middle of the us election results)
careful today there will be an important vote at the greek parlament we could experience high volatility
correct decision, the first time Obama got elected the charts flew to the sky and it caught me unaware, this time I am wiser.

basket easily parry the small news but stay away from those very high impact news that may change trend completely, such news basket too will react wildly to them.

Before I went to bed yesterday I cleaned up the basket @ $400 and up till now am still looking at the chart till when the euphoria of re-election settles.

that does not mean you cannot trade now

hi forex,the basket will always be greatly influenced by major fundemental news.the election results took some fear away from change that may have been comming from new president.markets get very spooked by change

always be aware of big fundy news.smaller data release get smoothed across the basket.but large news items can change sentiment within minutes
exactly!!

Hey guys.

PS, the past sell basket I got smashed hard.
Anyone have any tips on how they avoided getting in or filtering them?
Thanks team.
Take it on the chin, rinse your self off and look for the next entry.

make notes on the entry and see why it failed, then look to see if this happens each time under the same conditions.

Respect the entry rules. Imho, HAS still blue on H1 & M15, so it's trend up according to this system. But keep in mind it's all this hype with the elections, so it's not a clear direction either way.

And I'm still holding my longs from yesterday.
Please, just slap me around if I'm being silly ...
