Breakouts can be fake... How do you know when they are for real or when are just fake (most of the times)?

Hi,

I am currently waiting for a trading signal on the GBP/CAD. Price action is lousy these days, no real trend.

Bought GBP/CAD at 1.6375, 35 pip stop.

As you probably already know, it is almost impossible to move the Canadian dollar during the Asian session.
I mean, forget about it, it's a stubborn mule!

Hello again Giulietta.

To answer your questions I am a full time currency trader. I have been trading and testing all kinds of trading strategies for quite a while now. My first trade was on an IBM stock. I bought the stock back in the 70's early 80's, made a few bucks and got hooked.

After that I switched to commodities because I was attracted to the high leverage they offered. Of course I started losing big across the board!

It was then that I realized that I needed a good trading system and a lot of trading discipline!

Alright, I will tell you more about my trading experience later if you don't mind, right now I am watching that GBP/CAD trade.

Right now it's just noise on the cable and the US dollar, the market is waiting for the German GDP (2 AM EST), the Italian GDP (4 AM EST), and the British CPI (4:30 AM EST), plus many other important financial news, like Yellen's speech before Senate banking panel at 10 AM (EST).

In other words, fasten your seat belts and expect huge reversals around 10 AM (or sooner)...
