i tink i will not be able to post my trades during ecb decission/pk (expecting hyper-vola market): if qe will be disappointing -> down the road to 10.000 if qe will be surprising -> up to 10.500 snb, boe, boc did unexpected things - so why ecb should make something else? beware, i´m bullish, so this post might be misleading. good luck everyone for this event. {image}

Hey D1, Congrats on that quick +100, Care to explain your reasoning for taking the -40 risk?

Cheers

thanks. i expected a more choppy market reaction but believed in a surprising qe - and i wanted to stay in the market, so -10 or -20 might have driven me out of that long. i thought "this is one of the days to take risk, the reward will be great" and increased not only the sl but also the number of contracts. one could call this gambling, but every professional poker player does the same: betting small amounts on average, betting big amounts when the cards are right. so i risked much and now i could quit trading for a long time... won´t do so because i love trading too much

I wish I can build more confidence after several losses.......it is very hard for me at this time, but trading this news is for me very, very risky.
I congratulate to the trade and as U wrote..Yes it is and was expected, just I did not expected 60Bil. for me Draghi is like " one day this another day this " to say, because yesterday they talked 50bil.
My opinion...

i think yesterdays rumors where a test and intended by ecb. ecb will do what markets want her to do ("what ever it takes" + "believe me, it will be enough")
draghi is that cold blooded: at the beginng he said we will take action until the inflation goal is reached - and minutes ago ecb predicts an inflation on average for the next 5 years at 0,3%... good for stocks

in which way do the execute transfers??? i mean, they can set a man on a horse and let him ride to your location to hand in money physically, this would be faster but ok, most important: you got your money back.

I got a call around 11pm last night. Oh your margin rates are being trebled and by the way they will be redoubled from 23rd. They are really desperate to make 225M in a hurry. I said 'no problem, do what you have to.'. It is better for me that margin rates are going up as I can be almost wreckless in hedging. Better to be disciplined.

My opinion...

Instead of bringing good relations and stability among European nations, it seems the EU and the ECB with its Euro has started nations hating each other again - where there was very little of that before! Germans feel the Greeks are sneaky and lazy and the Greeks feel the Germans are Nazis again with the austerity measures - when in reality it's the ECB that is causing the problems with their debt-created money! And on and on with the British and the French, French and Germans, etc.
"Mario Draghi called on the European Central Bank to make its biggest push yet to fend off deflation and revive the economy by unleashing a debt-buying spree of 1.1 trillion euros."
Sure, the evil spectre of "DEFLATION". Hey, ever think that lower consumer prices may be exactly what your economy needs? When oil prices drop and people have more money in their pocket, people call it a boon to the economy but when the price of other things drop it's bad?
These people are literally INSANE. They try the same thing over and over expecting different results
