{quote} My main trade is JPY. AUD and NZD are not as complicated for me to trade because during Asia Pacific session only have to pay attention to what's going on in that region and it suits my trading hours. I don't do well in the morning will take hours to fully awake. I trade indices and commodities once in a while if not lazy. EUR/USD used to have good volatility but not since 2012, volatility on the EUR/XXX crosses is very good such as EUR/NZD and EUR/AUD. Not sure if you have this on your platform though.
much appreciated! if there is a futures equivalent, i can chart it. MOTB also cautioned me on not having more than 4 or 5 max instruments on your radar, takes away focus and leads to confusion....but i will check these out, thanks!

If not mistaken yesterday I cautioned about .950 is a big number for A/U? Technical is still pointing higher though.

it is so ridiculous when you see two arguing who is right or wrong about the price. one must understand that trading is not about being "right" but being able to accept when "wrong".
being right after the fact gives one nothing but may only feed fool's ego, realizing being wrong and accepting it may save one fortune.

{quote} Yup, saw it bouncing.With A/U down, ECB and uncle Stevens ahead, I banked them. So no 1000 pips. Guess I did not make it to guru league ...
We are scalping daily noises and not shorting from monthly levels. Looking at big chart can see the bottoming for E/A.

Long scalp

Yah I'm not really angry was just kiddin. I closed my longs at .94993. I am just looking for a re-entry point to long again. It's as you say though, the market has stopped moving until further news. Dow is flat.


Was reading up on the Trade Balance today and they say even though the figures were very bad, volumes have increased significantly so any future gains on prices will likely be a positive. All the major indices have had gains in last couple of days and the All Ords gained 1.4% today. Not sure what it all means as I'm still figuring information vs movement but figure I have to start somewhere. With Gains early in the week I have found fundamentals tend to follow trend but with tomorrows hair pulling craziness on news imo nobody could actually try to choose a direction.... but I'm still a bull!

I'm actually flat probably for the rest of the week, though may try a few news trades.

I am looking at DOW, SP, DAX, Footsie, etc......... can't find good reason to short and too late now to join the bull run......

Will stick to Gold, Crude and N225 for now

Greed is a sin ........

Edit:

BTW, the trade balance was not a shocker and it wasn't calculated based on volume but volume * price.

What was this ... bottom pickers ... a certain fragrance from fingers ... well, I thought more of it as a long term down trend, but maybe you see something I do not. Monthly is down and daily noise is ranging now. Hard to predict, because a lot depends on ECB and plans of the RBA. I think I will stay flat. Do not know where to place decent orders here.
Fix up, trade sharp ...
