{quote} Sorry, I didnt mean that, my current idea is that it break through 0.77 (another approach to the descending line) and go to 0.79
on my general view aud is now to target 0.95 area... but from around here it might come down first to test .7450 once again...

AUDUSD intraday TG roughly .7694 at the moment, but it is too late to have good position with resonable SL.

Igrok can I calibrate my data feed with yours ? What was your ystrd clsd EURUSD, here .11882 ?

{quote} i don't use dealer's charts... i pay for a subscription of an independent data provider services... so in such case i have a very good and quite accurate data... based on this data i have successfully argued several times in regards to the price and my trading positions execution with my banks and dealers and they executed those positions afterwards... my data is quite close in accuracy to the one on EBS...
Sure, thanks. I have requested for a test drive with that provider, lets see.

based on this data i have successfully argued several times in regards to the price and my trading positions execution with my banks and dealers and they executed those positions afterwards...
the most interesting case related to this matter took place back in 2001... then one day i had a 30 mil short position on eur/jpy with some dealer in London... all of a sudden the market started to move fast and in a matter of minutes went down about 100 pips... but when i tried to close my position and to take profit the dealer each time quoted me one big figure (100 pips) above the actual market price... so, i called their chief dealer on the phone in an attempt to close my position directly... but by the time i reached him on the phone the market came back to my open position level... so i could only close it at break even price... when i started complaining to the chief dealer about this matter he said to me something like "who gives a damn about your position?... the market now is like crazy because it was just announced that the US treasury secretary Snow has resigned"... so, the next day my investors put this issue on dispute threatening the dealing company with a lawsuit and this matter to be reported to SFA administration... after a couple of weeks of negotiations the dealer eventually transferred about $300K to my trading account to reimburse unrealized profits... the chief dealer has been fired afterwards but soon found himself a new job in another European dealing company and in another country...

But I guess common problem with multi brokers with data delay . I have complaint many times , but answer is always the same "market codition".

When I have delay and they can not close my SL or TP within few secounds they correct TP to right position , but with SL I have no such correction just "it was due the market condition ". And I never keep my all money at broker account just 10 % .

lots of dealers in retail fx are "standard issue pos's"... it's a job requirement... but not all of them... just find yourself a good one and switch to him... uk jurisdiction is the best regulated so far and in general their dealers value their licenses...

Hi Igrok
Great thread and advice here.

And secondly, and everyone feel free to message me, can you recommend a good FCA spr.betting broker, spreads, rollover and fast?
Thanks.ÂÂ

sorry, cant recommend anyone... i have already lost most of my once good uk contacts... unfortunately, nowadays on the retail level as a us citizen i'm legally doomed to deal with domestic dealers only... which all are of about same quite mediocre quality...

Hi Igrok.
Can you give a hint about rules for determining potential support/resistance levels.
Why for :
AUD/USD 0.95-98 instead 1.06
USD/CAD 1.13 instead 1.06
USD/JPY 116.00 instead 121.600

232 on the gbp/jpy is the resistance of the century... it is as important as 124 on the usd/jpy , (which is also a magnet and will be decisively broken one day on the way up)...so, in case gbp/jpy reaches this 232 level simultaneously with cable reaching 2.00 then obviously the usd/jpy will be trading at 116 because 232:2= 116.... besides this level has a pretty good technical significance... 116 level is the lower border of the 2015 consolidation...

GBP/AUD needs to break above 1.7139. That is a big hurdle. but once that happens it will fly
