@mizinvincible
I dont know much about fxcm.. but i've heard lots of complaints so i've stayed away from that broker..

@mizinvincible
Depends on everyone's personal needs. Me as a student i need a broker that is flexible because i do not have much capital. I chose oanda because i can buy any units i desire rather than other brokers which the trade sizes are set and not flexible.

If you are into charting.. i suggest MT4 brokers as the platform is great. Whats important is that you dont rush in choosing your broker. Take time to try other brokers on demo and at the same time sharpen ur trading skills.

yea i long too early i thought it will rally tonight.. nvm i'm keeping this position to c how the trade goes.. holding -ve pips but not much.. so mayb it will reverse?

already closed position to cut loss..

TF = time frame..

lol.. no problem.. just ask as acronym is not common to those that are new to this part of the forum =)

try to make decisions on your own.. and if u need further comfirmatoin then only u look at mph's chart.. =) because if u rely on his charts only... its like reliance on others work.. trust ur system =)

@dreams_achiever
before that... identify the long term trend and dont go against it =) its the most important and probably the thing that would help u make most money.. for instants.. the past 2 months we've all been only shorting EU =)

my short on EJ took 150 pips profit .. sadly i bought 188 units only.. was testing market. My reopened EU short is now holding 80 pips... SL set to +60.. i will trail it tightly

Added on November 4, 2008, 12:21 pmclosed EU +105 pips..

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 6:51 pmi gonna make one last trade.. i'm thinking EU is running out of steam already.. but y is it appreciating? shouldn't the US be appreciating instead because of the election ?

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 7:22 pmplacing limit orders at 1.28010 for EU short and 127.373 for EJ short.. going to buy slightly bigger lots as this is the only part i feel confident to short at the moment.

uk9089 thats probably because we dun use any software to trade aside the trading platform.

on a side note, EU and EJ set SL to +1.. i'm not taking chances with this market conditions.. both holding 30 pips now..

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 8:05 pmwaiting for USD appreciation now as somehow election does that. But can any1 tell me why?

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 8:28 pmgot stopped out..

This post has been edited by kelvin_tan: Nov 4 2008, 08:28 PM

this is due to the election but what i dont understand is WHY is EU going up instead of it going down due to USD strengthening..

when is this bull run coming to an end ?

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 8:40 pm@mph

---

Added on November 4, 2008, 8:46 pmmy prediction here would it be it will go to 1.2909.. from there i will short.. aside that i'm very worried bout taking any positions... burnt... 25% of my total profits in one day isn't fun
