A nice ±15 pip from the consolidation price... I hope FXCM will fill me in this time! However dont do a small distance when trading JPY.. JPY cant be traded using this technique as it can spike ±40 then immediately reverses within 2 seconds as I experienced it before.
I usually buy GBPUSD or sell EURUSD. Someone suggested that GBPUSD is not as liquid as EURUSD and i may encounter "non-fullfullment" of orders because of that and he suggested to go EURUSD instead...
Hmm... make sense though... my last NFP was buy GBPUSD and was filled when the rate was 40+ from my order price! Perhaps, I should take the above wisdom this time.
GBPUSD simply spikes up 30% better than EURUSD!Ignored
Quoting aparsaiDislikedI didn't dare to trade it and I won't trade such unreliable news in the future. You may make a few PIPs or as some friends said many PIPs but it doesn't worth it. What are your thoughts guys?Ignored
Quoting stockwetDislikedWho is everyone trading with - broker wise? I just got killed on 30+ pip slippage, which, incidentally, kept me from moving stops to B/E. You can imagine the result.Ignored

Quoting zarniDislikedYou are trading news with FXCM?? You gotta be kidding me!Ignored
QuoteDislikedDo not trade news with brokers like this or better yet get out!
Trading news with dishonest brokers with dealing desk is tantamount to flushing your cash down the toilet.
QuoteDislikedcombining your pips is a no-no in my book. If you got 13 pips, you got 13 pips whether you had 1 micro lot or 100 standard lots.
