Def still straggling M&A flow out there, thats the only thing that explains this wall at 1.66. Whenever this guy(s) is done bidding 1.66 we'll drop.

They take up to 3 weeks to open your account (mine took 20 days). I am not sure it is because of KYC but because of many applicants. Anyway, it is worth it if you want to get away from MT4. Jforex is very good if you don't use many indis and execution speeds are better than mt4. Use an IA though to get 40-49% rebates on (expensive) commissions.

{quote} I have 3 Dukascopy accounts and all are running fine. No server Issue here. Price feed and execution are running perfectly. (I just closed a short 25 minutes ago and have a long open, and no delay or lag). Maybe it's something to do with your ISP or firewall. Actually just closed my long a minute ago. So everything seems ok on their end.
1 missing bar for both eu and gu, my market order moved out of place in eu. I had to close and reopen to get the full next bar. We must be connecting to different servers (I am connected to Swiss one now, not sure if the NY one got off too).

Cable can be cruel! This is what I wrote on the 21st when I entered-
Quote
Retail sales actual -1.5,predicted -0.9 and the cable spikes! A perfect example of the saying "don't trade cable unless you want to lose your money." I was aiming for 1.66000 but will be happy with a small loss around 1.66400.

After remaining true to my analysis I hung onto my short and finally,30 mns ago got a modest 40 pips.

Dollar basket up, Gold slightly retraced, DOW up, S&P record high, JPY slightly up...something to ponder about correlation of dollar strength

SPX all time highs... I thought this was funny back in Spring 2011. But now this is just weird, anybody trading S&P futures? This feels errily 2007ish.

If you think the pound is sick, and the euro is sick, look at the swisse franc, which is even worse.

Euro versus swiss franc is soaring today

I am, I wouldn't say 2007, that was horrible..I expect retrace to 1400-1350 nothing more...we have too much free money that need return so...

I am a buyer at 1.6580 again...all the way to 167ish..shrugged my long at 6640 from 66 earlier when it didn't make above 66700 this morning.

What do you think did it broke support

there is no any fundamental today so I am assuming stops must be somewhere close to 1.6580

What is your opinion?

Looks like a retest of 1,6650 rather than a bear fantasy ...
Fix up, trade sharp ...
