{quote} To be honest... I know my luck is really bad.. I didn't plan on to make $ on this account I just used it as a loss to make $ on other accounts Think about it .. holding short on EUR/USD doesn't look good now ..... If backtesting your system work ... 99% wouldn't lose $$$. I admit that the only reason i'm losing is because I didn't have a sizable stop loss in place. Even with all this bad luck trading.
If you are talking about luck then you need to spend more time studying the charts imho. With hours of watching and testing you can become quite adapt and knowing where the market will be going. This is where demo comes in handy just to test if you can get the direction correct, though I'd advise watching a live feed if possible. After hours of watching, studying chart patterns, knowing typical movements of news reports etc etc then the scales slowly tip in the direction of experience. It's no easy game as I'm sure all here are aware but if you can save those dollars in a live account until you can truthfully admit (to yourself) that you understand your own strategy and can honestly see it being profitable then your live account may have a chance of staying alive.

Basically you have said it in one sentence. How much risk was involved in the 40%? Lets say you're good enough for 1:1 RR trades. That means you risked 40% of an account in one week. Nice win for 1 week but what happens with 2 losing weeks... margin call and all for naught. It's the common mistake, people treat forex like a get rich quick scheme instead of buckling under for the long term prospect of making really good money with a compounding balance.

Being based in Asia, it's also due to the lack of money to move the markets.

Institutional players are only limited to the banks and funds while the big cap fund size of an asian fund would be considered mid cap in the West. This is due to the rich people's disregard for other financial assets. Most of the rich made their cash through the property industry and thus favor property more than equities/FX/options.

They are still stuck in the past and not keeping up with the times. Doesn't matter though, at least I don't get taxed on all my capital gains.

Well, that more or less all goes directly into the defense budget, so that's a very good thing, because the US is able to calm the situation in Ukraine and stand up against Russia....

Japan's debt is real.Their own racist society prohibits immigration hence continued decline of population.So logically if population is declining and you are accumulating more debt without end in sight is disaster tsunami proportion waiting to happen.
On top of these Japanese society is getting wasted on virtual garbage.
General? Yes but true.Some generalities are true.

Good morning fellow traders! Buon giorno! Guten Morgen! Bonjour! Moin! ;-|

EURO SUMMARY: Euro-dollar opened at $1.3799 in NY near its daily high of $1.3813 following a higher EZ CPI number than most market participants expected, especially given the recent soft inflation data from several European countries. The dollar remained offered in early NY dealings with dollar-chf trading beneath Chf0.8800 for the first time since early Nov 2011, and ahead of US Q4 GDP the euro rose to a high of $1.3818. There was little reaction to the US GDP data coming in below forecasts, but the pair broke as euro-yen demand kicked in with stock futures recovering losses and leveraged buying forced a high of $1.3824. Some traders mentioned the trendline resistance going back to the 2008 high of $1.6038, which is at $1.3834. The release of stronger US Chicago PMI and Uni of Michigan Confidence helped the dollar, and the pair eased lower finding support at the 23.6% daily level of $1.3793. Month end fixing demand saw a modest rally to $1.3813, which extended to $1.3818 and appeared to be heading for a subdued end to the week. However reports of Russian troops in Crimea saw kneejerk reaction to buy safe haven currencies and it made intraday high of $1.3825 before easing back and closed at $1.3796.

{quote} GBP/AUD : Violation of critical zone occurred ... ;-|

GBP/AUD :

Which means that it is more likely we are eyeing for higher levels in the near future ... and further price action towards above 1.8805 and even higher rates than 1.8830 or 1.8840 cannot be ruled out anymore ... but otherwise there is room for some corrective action and a pullback as long as 1.8870 cannot be crossed anytime soon ...
Its critical support is considered at around 1.8509 on a daily basis. And a premature move to below 1.8620 or even somewhat more is urgently needed in order to maintain a suitable downwards structure ... currently the market has seen its settlement around 1.8755 ... Attachment

Hourly TF => : EURUSD 1.3797 (+4) ... USDCHF 0.8789 (-5) ... GBPUSD 1.6732 (+5) ... USDJPY 101.75 (±0) ... USDCAD 1.1065 (±0) ... EURJPY 140.36 (+3) ... AUDUSD 89.21 (-3) ... NZDUSD 83.80 (+4) ... GBPJPY 170.32 (+3) ... GBPAUD 1.8755 (+6) ... 22h55 CET ... Friday 28. Feb 2014

EUR/USD :

Hourly trend with a bullish biased tone after it did give us a close above its critical level at 1.3780 zone ... a pullback to below its former breakout zone 1.3777 is likely on Monday ... as long as capped below 1.3840 (hourly basis) zone ... Attachment
Otherwise further upside attempts towards 1.3853 or even to above 1.3880 are possible now ... especially while it remains well supported above 1.3718 - 1.3690 zone ... which is considered to act as its critical support zone on a daily basis for now ...

EUR/JPY :

This pair looks more tempting to me at the present time. We still have some smaller active sell positions from 140.97 on board. Neutralized setup with mild positive stance with a possible objective area at 141.27 - 141.56 zone ... which is more likely to be tested again ... especially while it remains well supported above 139.70 zone ... whereas its critical support is considered near 139.15 and below 138.95 zone ...
