US on Holiday is a pain in the ass (very annoying month in the US, 2 days off with Sandy, today Veterans and next week Thanksgiving...). Whatever the case, awful numbers from Japan (-3.5% !!! annualized GDP) flirting with triple recession in 4 years and Europe with the typical debt/Greece BS also with poor numbers from Germany so any bottom must come from the US.....meaning we may chop for the next few 24/48 hours and not even breach the lows today to 1.264x (running out of time and Europe looks indifferent for a move today)

its not retracing normal. the sign of a strong deep move.. 39 would be norm.. no 39 and bull is still weak..and i look for a LL
we did get 39..
close above 2709 11
and get above 39 and 82 is a decent place.. to look.. the same as
Friday.. we got st tl r also in the 70ties.
39 is norm lately, but its only a 50% mark of norm.

ej did close on the bear side since last post. and the eu closed below also on the bear side, but not below 2998

k so my ex trading partner is saying he wants to close the account because he wants to re-mortgage his house and doesn't want any liabilities connected with it, since the house is collateral on the account... which means that i now need to find a broker who'll give me tight spreads on fx with only a few grand equity, has to be ifa regulated and preferably have offices in london. any suggestions?

that's who i'm with, have two accounts with them, the joint account (which is the one he wants to close) and my priate account, but my private account is locked to a guaranteed stop set up, which means i have an additional 3 pip spread + the normal spread, which is too much... any idea on how i can change it?

yeah that's the one, is there a minimum equity requirement before they'll take you off limited risk?

I may be interested in the Aussie if it can sink to 1.0362. 1.0400 may black though.
Order filled. Stops to BE, currently sitting on +70. Need a close > 0479 to continue up.
