I am thinking about this since yesterday. Why from the point of EURO this decision was bad? It is bad for people involved, but if we take it to the basics it is in accordance with Draghi's words: We do whatever it takes to defend EURO, even rob people!!!

I wouldn't get too bogged down in the details myself, the over-riding fact is that Cyprus is now more openly in the crapper. There will be a package, there will be a depositor tax but the amount hardly matters now the dollar is gaining as a result versus the euro. The only question is how much retrace before continuance or a new significant data release that alters the course. imo
Your opinions make perfect sense and continue to be of the highest quality, MaxD. Much appreciated.

I think this 50-50 bailout is ok because half the population of Cypre is russian. So, I don't want, as an european, to bailout russian citizens.

I'm not really good at this, but no loser either, indulge me, I just had to share, after a six trade losing streak earlier, now up +168 pips for today! My problem is should I stop for the day, like I usually do or just risk it again and give back a little just to see what happens, still early?
Except in unusual circumstances, get in the habit of taking your profit too soon

don't take this the wrong way but, it sounds like you do not have a defined strategy, otherwise you would take all trades that match your entry criteria inside your defined trading times.

you are not alone 99% of people on here do not have a strategy, some think they do, but they don't because they still make random decisions when deciding to take a trade or not just as you have mentioned.

you can tell the ones that have a strategy and follow it, because behind all the +/- pips, etc. they actually measure their success by error.... I don't think I have seen anyone here posting such info.

as for the answer to your question, only you can decide, but you often see a lot of chop after a large move

Perhaps because people don't actually care much about the euro but they do care about preserving their wealth ? If you have a choice between putting your money in a jurisdiction where you can have any portion of it confiscated over night or somewhere else entirely what do you choose ?

The EU should put up a sign "Invest in the Soviet Union" cause that's about the message they send with this.

Good day to you all !

I am new to this forum and this thread, but I have been watching attentively last week, and I have appreciated a positive sense of "traders' community".

I hope you will allow me to post here every now and then.

I am still learning my craft trading in simulation.

I focus on 4X futures, particularly EU (or 6E in Cme terms).

I am based in the gorgeus (if a bit battered) Italy.

Wishing big success to you all. Great community: let's keep it up!

Thank you Max, I do have a strategy, it works most of the time, my problem (one of many) is getting to quit while ahead, didn't expect this for a Monday, was long since Japan open. I usually just take in 20-30 pips a day and I'm out, maybe I'm just inclined to seeing where my lucky streak ends. Thanks again, I'm locking things in and be on the sidelines and maybe watch out of a good short. Thanks.

Sl moved on 2941. Momentum comes into the market. Despite I'm day trader, it looks like it could be a nice swing.
