it dont matter how it does it, it seems to want 3857.. i always wait for a pullback. 3822 or lower w/o breaking the low. chart is just a possibility. 3899 is the same for a bear as is 3822 for a bull.... bears should want a retrace to 3899 min. and bulls 3822 before 3857.. both of these setups want higher, just speculation.. {image}
You expect european session to be a dull session? markets have hardly moved since the past 8 hrs after 80 pip down move which I am not sure why it happened. techs got excited by reading the rate hike word and slammed it down. waiting for volatility but I would be long. no shorts for me till 1.3740 is out

EURUSD has changed really dramatically, especially since January 2014 (and already a good bit since middle of 2013). I also guess it´s HFT trading as EURUSD is only spiking all the way, then goes to sleep with no (or slight) movements until the next spike comes. That´s a typical sign of HFT as all these systems react on sharp price movements and then go to sleep completely again. The spike just needs to be triggered by someone (news or a big player opening a trade) and all the HFTs jump on the train pushing it really hard, then go to sleep until...

HFT or not, its still a market. Dont get to exciited with this dark matter, buying low and selling highz is also in their manual.

aaragontgand, you play with your family fortune and you cant even calculate the risk and reward properly?

Great to hear, but does it do HFT by the means of what HFT really is: up to 100000 orders / second or is it a MT4 EA? Because MT4, even with the newest build that eliminated the extra connection when you open / close a trade, can´t get below 175ms for any order command, be it opening, closing or modifying an order. So MT4 can open and close a max of 2,8 orders per second (and that with a REALLY good broker only, most take 300 to 400ms to process any order command), which is way off of 100000.

Everybody has a different approach, but its my intention to make whatever I need for the next 5-10 years on this one Fed rate hike cycle.
Just wanted to thank you for your input here. Imo it still can go upwards, not only to test the highs, but above 1.41, but it's refreshing to see your perspective about the fundi background and your strategy for the next months to come. Where do you see EU, equities at the end of this Fed rate cycle? Net short myself, aiming for 1.31.
Fail better.

MT4 or any retail kind of trading platform cant do HFT trades. They have their own software, hardware and internet connection specifically tailored for HFT trades. Even they prefer locations close to the exchange so that physical length is reduced for their cables or distance.

This is my understanding of HFT.

To do HTF Forex interbank market is suitable , may be institutional accounts offered by some brokers work close to HTF.

HFT is not defined by volume of trades per second

I don't see any reason to buy euros atm. Hope my shorts will hold, if stops get triggered I'm green anyways...so dont need to care.
Also interesting what Frankfurt will do now since they couldnt partizipate in yesterdays FOMC action due to opening hours
