DislikedIs there a preference when it comes to the close times of the daily candle? I have 2 options 1700 est NY close, and 0000 est NY close. I have heard the 1700 candles are most commonly used?Ignored

{quote} I prefer that too.
My broker is serving me well however with real prices and charts for intraday setups. I will continue my search for NY closes + good conditions and safe deposits to add to my techniques by swing trading on daily charts.

Also guys, as we were talking bout that E/U finish (USD finish). I think capital will be shifting into Europe after final correction from SaP tops. SaP corrects, will be final push to EU lows and then... I buy EU - as in the meanwhile Oil will be @ 2K8 lows and I eat my socks if its not gonna stop falling. This is a letter which is going into my email every week or so. I just like to read stuff and its free and seems unbiased. Also I like views against current trend . Recent article is about US earnings slowing down with momentum and possibly carrying US GDP. Is find it pretty much nice sum up, why am stating for quite some time US strong numbers are obvious fake. And also my conspiracy about Oil (not in article) - speaking of which - US is moving troops to Ukraine, so I think Russia had enough and there will soon be no need to keep on pushin Oil prices lower.

{quote} Thanks for the answer. Sure, give me a couple of mins...
As you can see, I have the option of seperating the seperate sessions by colour. I currently have them set for daily but I know you look further.

Welcome back team, Hope your weekend was relaxing. A quick flick through the FF calendar doesn't seem to show any biblical sized fundamental events so maybe we're in for a slightly tamer week. Thanks for the template Ray. Just because you may take a holiday one day I'm trying to tie in your DPs to my profiles, sometimes they match sometimes I can't see it...presumably due to your statistical expertise. Do you isolate the Asian sessions or weight them differently? Price rarely seems go anywhere during that session so more TPOs are printed and I suspect...

What US is doing since 70s, is an Economy of Theft. This is known since Ancient Rome, its an old stuff. Major superpower expands by taking others borders - in case of US taking markets - sometimes with use of force. Thats the start. Once major superpower cant expand, it starts to rob their neighbours on world trade. In Ancient Rome, they had to cut coins. US simply prints. They are doing so since 70s Gold Standard fell. It is still the same, debt is going hyperbolic and so are stocks and so does USD Bear. Those at power will never give up, coz this is a facking cashmashine. In this very long term, it works like this: 1) Status of world reserve currency - you gotta buy bucks in Order to trade Oil, Gold and most of Stocks. 2) Biggest importer in the world.
So first they send Oil down. Second, they stuff bucks down the throat of all Asia - Asia is stuffed with USD already massive exposition - partially they diversify into Treasuries (win/win for US). Then they start to devalue like insane and rob everyone on world trade. Economy of Theft. Easy peasy and still the same for last 50 years or so. I dont expect it to change anytime soon, Kondratieff wave has about 90 years. On the other hand, winter is coming.
Speaking of which - once this cash flow starts - bunds and Dax are gonna go nuts.

{quote} Hi anima, hope the "holiday" was good
Wednesday was my last day of trading last week. Thursday was too hectic at work for me to dedicate enough time to any post FOMC madness and we had a big party in the afternoon. As with all parties that start at 1300 I seem to feel the need to drink alot, in this case until 0200 Friday morning. I was therefore not in a fit state to trade so thought I'd better stay out of even this place before you lot with your sexy charts persuaded me to do something expensive. If truth be told I'm not sure I feel right now.
In total I spent nearly 300 pips on gin, wine and cider followed by a bag of cheesy chips and a taxi home. I need to get some mega trades in now.

{quote} It was fun you're right, and you're right about the MM (I don't have the act size). My next goal is 1000pips then I will buy myself a new computer. The one I have at the moment I bought in 2007 and its fading fast. I currently risk a max of 3% (more commonly 1.5%) which generally seems to be the consensus on max risk in forex. Ray, If only I looked that good at the bar. I vaguely remember karaoke to one of the top gun songs. I also wish I could drink whiskey. I can't remember who said it but someone did say that to be a proper man one...
