euro is pretty much done with the swing low from 1.1xx handle and now trading water till ECB , the push and hold under 1.058x last couple of days is what worries me as it delivers a strong bearish signal across the board , a breather above 1.07x is norm , consolidation area under 1.068x give bears the upper hand , at least few ticks lower , positionning pre ECB is crucial for next swing , leg down to 1.049x would clearly open sub 1.02xx else 1.077x and above would make the leg up to the highs more viable through 1.11x handle for the rest of the month . 1.127x is a level where I would look before parity in most cases . let's wait & see how it plays next few sessions for confirmation.

All those guys, I'm no vet.

I highly doubt the end of the discussions (in the near term) on FF honestly. Many here absolutely love this place, no matter how bad the debauchery gets. Sisse and Gator are two of them. It takes a special person to post continuously for 5 years, and wade through all the bull-crap, constantly teaching

Oooops...I'm a jackass! I read your last sentence as... Maybe there IS AN easier and better idea As you were.
FF is now very dated in terms of technology behind for active trading and social interactions. The core which is forum chat is there but the rest of the areas are very poor in all aspects. Its not even mobile friendly in 2015 !!! ...

Whatever the case, yeah check those guys. I like the way you can quickly markup a chart and share it for comments or to take a quick snapshot. I haven't use the live feed and etc but its pretty much common sense that the future of trading chat is something similar both in functionality and in the IT part behind.

...On a similar but unrelated topic I am also now actively against MT4,5 whatever. lol ....uff its almost a broker monopoly now. Seriously the lack of competition for retail have left retail with seriously BAD, FLAW and OLD platform. Looks made with a collage of bad and old scripts ...where the heck are all the new Jscript framewroks/Html5 or whatever technologies... my call (je je ) is we are just around the corner for a few newcomers in the charting/platform field that will kill these platform made in the 90s...

As antiquated as FF is...it just kind of suits me. Doesn't mean others shouldn't go for it.

I certainly have skyped with some...email with loads of others...speak on the phone with a few. I still like the Factory, though. Was knocking around for a couple of years before I joined, so have nearly been here for 10 years now. Just kind of like a dirty old saloon to shoot the shit...bounce some ideas around.

Too old school? Whatevs...suits me. Maybe down the road. Have at it, though...keep me posted...and anything I can do to help...I will.

hey mate , been using TradingView for sometime , its a pretty much friendly/professional environement for traders ... FF is outdated in terms of technology as you mention , well if you post some charts there from time to time let me know ... I would be more than interested & few members also I guess ...

The problem with tradingview is privacy of charts and with whom you share with if you use live charts. When you share it is open to all.

Yeah...MT5 seems to have even gone backward in many ways.

I first started years ago with 0anda (left long ago)...then onto (and still with) Dukas. MT4 came much later for me. It IS dreadful...absolutely shocking. Keep seeing new platforms pop up, but nothing really taking hold. Seems an absolute goldmine if somebody can pull it off. In another lifetime, I may have given it a go myself...with a team, obviously.

Ho-hum...still pulling some pips...but it does feel like stepping back into Windows 3 when starting up an MT4 terminal.

{quote} You aren't the only one that has trouble understanding it. It started off as greek to me, now it's closer to spanish. Sisse speaks the professional language of traders, hard to understand if you haven't read many books on the subject or been in an institutional atmosphere. It'll come to you with time, and obviously asking him as you did to explain- never had any trouble with sisse answering questions when asked nicely. If you think his language is confusing, try reading one of his charts! All the best, I'll pop in later on today...
Thanks, with time I will grow.
