Hi pip nice to see you

Yep i know what you mean but i still think it will drift lower so not really sure on strategy from here as it could go lower and stay in a tight range for months again

If you long both EURUSD and USDCHF then you will cancel each other out as they move in opposite directions?

right. although in this way cannot get too much pips, so does EC.
at least you can catch 20-30pips, what's better is that you can put more capital because it's less risk

Longing EUR/USD and USD/CHF at the same time is the same as longing EUR/CHF.

I invite everyone in the thread to switch to a long term view, guessing the next 10 pip move is maddening. Please go to the EURCHF weekly chart and draw the 200 MA, then go to the same weekly chart in USDJPY. The similitude is complete with that overextended exhausted down trend... this chart will roket like USDJPY did... soon.

Putin news appears to have popped this up. 15 points in an hour is relatively high volatility for this pair.

right on time, just after adding more longs at 2160, didnt expect to see 2170 in such a short time.

Guess it might rebound from here or from any spike reversal, nothing fundamentally new other than the usual (Ukraine, china is slowing, safe haven blah blah blah..).

What exactly should I see on the chart?

It might look like hedging but it has nothing to do with hedging.

When you buy 1 lot of EUR/USD, you sell 136,500 USD for 100,000 EUR.
When you buy 1.2 lot of USD/CHF, you sell 106,800 CHF for 120,000 USD.

You are now net: -16,500 USD, -106,800 CHF and +100,000 EUR. Buying 1 lot of EUR/CHF is selling 121,500 CHF for 100,000 EUR. With your 1:1.2 ratio, you are now holding ~1.14 lot of EUR/CHF and ~0.12 lot of EUR/USD. You would need to buy 1.365 lot of USD/CHF to turn this into EUR/CHF only position.

PS: The calculations use EUR/USD rate = 1.36500, USD/CHF rate = 0.8900, EUR/CHF = 1.2150.
