{quote} Impact is rank. It's the system that replaced vouches as an indication of how much a user has contributed to the forum...I would certainly say that constitutes "rank". If you're going to tell me some new registrant who has 2 posts and has been here for 20 minutes has the right to come in, tell other people what the right way to do things is and how they should behave, you're going to find I can't agree. {image}
First of all, I don't agree that's any indication of "rank". Like I said, I believe it's a guide to that member's participation to FF here. The REAL "rank" should be the quality of the contribution or participation to forex trading.

And like I said before, even so if a member is really considered "more experienced" or with "higher rank" as indicated by the "Impact", then he/she should be even more expected to exercise leadership and setting positive examples of following rules for newer members, rules as rudimentary as posting relevant comments in the correct thread and not repeatedly posting comments in totally unrelated thread just to get more "exposure" and especially not bicker and pull "ranks" on anyone who pointed out their incorrect behaviour.

That's all I want to say on this issue. I really do want to go back to talking about EU trading as this is what this thread is about.

Participation to forex trading is accounted for in impact ratings. Trade explorers will earn you extra prestige. I can agree with setting a good example, though.

What I'm going to argue now, however, is that this thread hasn't been about "EUR/USD" in years. Even when I had just joined (late 2012), this thread was used to discuss virtually everything with every kind of TA for every type of pair. It's not that I disagree that in a perfect world that this would only be for EUR/USD, but that in the real world that's just not how it is. It's the responsibility of the original poster to moderate the content, and they haven't been around in forever. If you really don't like what this thread has become, you're of course welcome to create a new one which is "pure". Just my two cents.

{quote} 8 to 11 NY time , You mean ?
Yes. After that, the NY market is dead unless there is major news like FOMC statements at 2:00 PM or some breaking news like Putin was assassinated by Nikita...

Really disappointing. Waiting for EU to drop below 1.3703 which looks like to be the major support for now. Will probably drop lower during the Asian market and I will have to pay swaps to find out. Since my swaps is more expensive than the commission, wondering if I should close my position before the cut-off and just re-open the position when the market resumes at 5:00 EST...

The swap is another suffocating factor now .Moves are litle and slow , so one holds for the target and has to pay swaps ......
There was a good entry long DAX on monday , I missed it - was out . Now the weekly range looks consumed + double top , another instrument off fr the week .
Annoying !

Who cares what pair it is everything is related to the world economy, some pairs more than others of course but everything is interconnected. EUR/USD is the focus but other pairs do have an effect on it so post away anything that is related to economics and trading.

Since after all I thought we are all here to discuss trading ideas.

Well I am Short right now so if it closes higher which I really don't hope so, I will have to close at a loss if I really don't want to pay swap. And then I might suffer a possible spread if I have re-open the Short position after the cut-off,

So between (possible)spread + commission and swap, I guess swap is the lesser evil.

I'm short from 1.2176 sl: 1.2265. I took the position Friday morning around 8AM EST. I wanted to trail the stop, but fell asleep because of whacky sleeping patterns last week. Luckily price didnt suddenly reverse on me through my stop again. I'm thinking about moving the s/l asap to 1.2170, about breakeven. I'll cover on another bounce around 1.1205 area, but I'd like to leave the trade open and hopefully make some decent gains on a break below 1.2060 area. I wish I wouldve gotten in earlier, but have been focusing on the GBPUSD and USDCHF...
hey man some are complaining about us posting pairs that are not the eu. since this is your first post and it contains "I wish I wouldve gotten in earlier, but have been focusing on the GBPUSD and USDCHF lately." information about other pairs. what is your thoughts?

I wish I wouldve gotten in earlier, but have been focusing on the GBPUSD and USDCHF lately. Is anybody in this trade? What do you think about moving my stop to 1.2170? Too tight? I placed it here because I'm thinking there is at least two levels of resistance from where we are now on Fri close @ 1.2124: 1)1.2140 Fri high after bounce from 1.1203 (near Fri low) and ~50% fibo from Friday high to 1.1203 2)just above 61.8% fibo (1.2159)of 1.2213->1.2077) and a prior intraday support for Friday If it breaks these, then I will wait...

Will do that. The online chat support is closed, will send them an email. I suspect that my mofu broker consider this cross being very exotic and rejecting the order for that reason. Thanks.
