{quote} I rarely hold during the weekend !...unless in 200+ profit . But Oanda has the habit to widen spread at midnight , especially on not so populr pairs , it pisses me off !
Note: All brokers widen the spreads temporary at midnight.
I asked, and the official answer (reason) was: "the lack of liquidity on the market at that hour"

{quote} Hi Nabz, mi broker too. But how this is going to affect already open position ? Right now I sit with 3 losing long positions and a free margin of 500% leverage 1:100.... when they are reducing the levarage will this affect free margin too? I dont' want to get a margin call just because of this
This is what my broker said, "please note that the new margin requirements will affect both EXISTING and NEW positions. "
They mentioned 21 GMT tonight for it to take affect and if the margin of currently open position is higher then new requirement at that time, then it will result in margin call.
You should contact your broker and inquire about the time new margin apply and manage your positions accordingly.

Sell EURUSD rallies in order not to get a margin call lol, just kidding The Italian referendum is inflated by the media. It is not that important. In Italy is normal that they have a new gov every 2 weeks or so lol Austrian elections still not important. Just media hype but as I see the brokers are buying this hype in order to have a motive/reason to lower the leverage.
I'm italian and I know it's all hype... They also don't understand the meaning of the referendum, No or Yes wont change pratically nothing in the end, it's not like NO wins and Italy exits the Euro...
I think it's just going to be a reason for speculation, maybe the right pretest for the USD to continue its rally and for Eurusd to break out from the current range...

Anyway if I survive this shit, ActivTrades is going to lose me Not that they will care, but oh well...

expect some spikes... Euro is apparently quite sensible to the upcoming events!
Could be easily sent around 0.90 if strong loss of confidence
it's just 600-700 lower than actual rate (Brexit teaches)

The margin reduction (lev. reduction) is applied by some brokers just to prevent this kind of situations.
The broker I have the account with, applied margin restrictions before CHF, GBP events. This saved some people and themselves of course!

The BIG BIG question here is:

Do you really believe it's a good timing to trade the EURO instead of waiting after the facts will be done?

ok but the world around starts wondering what's about Italy and its political stability.
eurozone see this referendum as important since could give stable governance instead of the last 70years shits.

sadly... the referendum itself is a shit. (typical)

Italy is stable even if they change the govern 4 times per year.
This is a constitutional referendum:

"
A constitutional referendum will be held in Italy on Sunday 4 December 2016.[1] Voters will be asked whether they approve of amending the Italian Constitution to reform the appointment and powers of the Parliament of Italy,[2] as well as the partition of powers of State, Regions, and administrative entities.
The bill, proposed by Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and his centre-left Democratic Party, was first introduced by the government in the Senate on 8 April 2014. After several amendments by both the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, the bill received its first approval on 13 October 2015 (Senate) and 11 January 2016 (Chamber), and, eventually, its second and final approval on 20 January 2016 (Senate) and 12 April 2016 (Chamber).[3]
In accordance with Article 138 of the Constitution, a referendum was called because the constitutional amendment had not been approved by a qualified majority of two-thirds in each house of the Parliament in the second voting.[4] The reform will not become law unless it receives a majority of "Yes" votes in the referendum. This will be the third constitutional referendum in the history of the Italian Republic: the other two were in 2001(which was approved) and 2006 (which was rejected).
Should the voters approve the bill, it would achieve the most extensive constitutional reform in Italy since the end of the monarchy, not only influencing the organization of the Parliament, but also improving, according to its proponents, on the poor government stability of the country. Opposition parties have harshly criticised the bill, claiming that it is badly written and that it will make the government too powerful.[5] "

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italia...ferendum,_2016

Wikipedia is a good source this time because it presents just the facts. If you brows the news on this subjects you will only get all kind of interpretations and comments of the "specialists" about this subject. In my view this is an important referendum for italian citizens but it realy has nothing to do with the EU membership of Italy less so with an eventual Italexit as some "experts" say. Italy is a strong country with strong institutions, in fact is the worlds oldest democracy, after Greece.

Yes maybe not a Italexit thing.
But definetly Italy requires some strong new laws in many areas.
Job laws is just an example

With the actual kind of parliament - senate etc... it seems impossible to decide what is better for the country.
That's why we are need of a stronger and more stable govern. Now, every time someone is pissed off, we have new elections.

The main problem is indeed behind the election laws...

Well, typical italian spaghetti mess, I would say.

I suspect a NO will win. And I suspect market will react heavy on that.
Europe is instable. That's it.
And more instability in Italian politcs... is just an add.-on to the situation.

THen, knowing if the reaction will be bullish or bearish... who know?!

Yes , i think NO will win, and I'm sure for the market and europe this is going to be a bad news, maybe not for Italy itself, but Euro as currency can't do anything but going more down IMHO
And by market reacting strongly it can only mean USD getting even more stronger against Euro
