At that point its up to you to make a decision. This pair could go up and give you more profits, but it could also go down and bring you losses. I cant guide your further than that since I wouldnt be trading that pair at this point, but that just me.

You're a joke. After a quick look at your previous posts, it's apparent that your "strategy" is to copy all the "professional" traders' trades. I hope you 1) are trading on a demo account 2) already see why that is the most laughable idea ever.

I had a tough week. For the first time in 9 weeks, I had a losing week. My NZD/JPY trade didnt turned out well. I diversified my risk and managed to finish with small losses of................ 2.6%. I could continue my trade on NZD/JPY, but I prefer to leave it like that, with a loss. I guess I cant win all the time. I managed my risk well so my losses were smaller than my usual gain


Right now I have two trades in mind for next week. I will go long on GBP/AUD and possibly go short on CAD/JPY after Monday.


I will enjoy my weeken for now. Hope you all had a good trading week and I will see you tomorrow at the market open

good choice in cutting that loss, they just happens, it's laso veru tough for me to accept a loss and being wrong, but this is the game. I personally would not short the NZD in any cirucmstances since we're approaching the rate hike

Thank you. Its not always easy to admit a loss but it must be done. I cant win all the time and trying to take revenge on the market is never a good thing. Anyways the losses were small so it doesnt affect me.

Cheers

What a long week!

I just closed all my position to finish at break even. The GBP acted stubburnly and only gain this morning. Because I traded it with the CHF and I use little to no leverage, I finish at break even instead of profits. I had to diversify my risk with GBP/AUD and ended up making more profits on that pair rather than GBP/CHF.

I have totally missed the CAD losses. I was away I didnt read the news on the right time. That was a very significant trend that would have propelled my portfolio and mood up. Anyways, better luck next time.

I hope you all did well in the recent day. I didnt post because I wanted to focus on my trade. Hopefully I will have more gain next week.

All the best

More tapper brought the USD higher, and its not done climbing. Both Gold and the S&P went down after the FOMC.

I went short on AUD/USD and will be waiting to buy the Dollar against the NZD and the JPY.

  1. The SNB kept its interest rate unchanged at 0.0% and maintained its cap on the Franc at 1.20 per EUR, stating that that the Swiss Franc at current level still remains high. The Swiss central bank also reiterated its expectations for the economy to expand 2% this year.

Finaly closed every AUD trades. Yesterday high on GBP/AUD was a good moment to close most of my trades and was a good decision. AUD/USD could keep on moving lower, especially if the NFP this friday are good, but Im good so far so I closed everything.

That was my longest trade. I had drawdown up to 10%. Anyways, trading aint a easy job.

Have a nice end of the week people

The US dollar too a hit for the past 2 days. The currency is getting hammered after the NFP numbers which were not so bad. This currency is not done moving tho. Tomorrow we will have the FOMC minutes and the USD might become volatile. I will stay away from it until I have a clear pattern and direction.

The other interesting moves that took place in the past 2 days was the gain in the Japanese Yen. The BoJ said that the current monetary policy program is enough to reach their target. The market interpreted that as a good sign and bought the Yen which was a little bit weak.

As for me, I will be looking forward on the GBP to see if it will rise, the NZD and the CHF to see where these two pairs are going.

There are more and more talks of lowering the Euro from ECB members, also to include talks of possible QE. Im thinking of selling the Euro right now. I could either go with EUR/NZD or Eur/JPY.


Eur/NZD seems good since the NZD has been weak for the past days, but I will wait a little bit before jumping in. I could enter at the end of the day tho.

So far the Eur/Jpy trade is going well, it could revers tho. We are about the get a very interesting week ahead of us. The ECB is try harder to lower the Euro through their speech and statements. if the German Zew Survey were to be worst than expected, we could a good downward trend on the Euro. If not, we will have to wait.

The Canadian Dollar has lost weight for the past week and will be an interesting currency to watch for this week. I will also keep a close eye on both the GBP, for possible gain, and the NZD.

Im still amaze by how much the USD lost for the past day, while the Aud kept on gaining without any serious pull back. These two pair could see a correction during this week, USD more likely than Aud after all the good Australian economic data that we had.

Happy trading week everyone
