... Sorry, just couldn't help myself. I always enjoy all the pages of wit and sound trading commentary between those who trade, and those who still wish to.
I just Love Fridays!
.... Enjoy the weekend folks.

{quote} erm...if you manage a fund, the money in the fund is usually not yours and you get only a percentage/margin out of the profit. So I guess the answer would be...yes?
i trade my own money. the screencapture is one of my accounts with scottrade for my IRAs. I trade FX with interactivebrokers for a smaller account.

Dollar index looks tired and not exactly eager to push to 11k barrier or 11130 Fib. Bad time to place any trades, but next week is going to very interesting.
One look @ daily candle of SP tells the whole risk on/off vs. tapering story (not closed yet but I donīt expect any large moves as there is hardly any volume left in the market into the weekend). So greenback not exactly acting like safe haven in these moves, but rather as stronger currency (vs. easing expectations in Japan, Australia, UK, Europe...)
Iīd say we might see a nice pullback from these levels (10920 would do nice because of positioning + itīs exactly 50% retracement of the last 2 days big moves), short consolidation and then, with escalation of problems (Portugal/Greece) and FI soaring in these countries, nice continuation...
Deeper pullback might give us 10875.
But meh, what do I know...
Anyhow, EU will be a great pair to trade next week as itīs going into the weekend strategically positioned only a few pips above a crucial trendline...

{quote} Yeah, you are right...They are not influencing markets heavily by their monetary policy and they are not stockpiling any bonds or MBS, pumping cheap money into the economy and they never intervene in the currency markets (especially not SNB or BoJ)... I am just glad we have so many experts here to remind me here and there...
{quote} most of the time central banks do not trade. it is large funds that speculate most of the time. cenral banks intervene the market occasionally when they see the market is too off from a level that harms economy.
