I think what adam mean is that FA plus confirmation from TA.

USD is facing a bit of challenge to be the safe haven now. Looking at the Treasuries auction for its 3 and 6-month bills, i considered it weak. What is left now for the Euro is how ECB is going to play with its tools. Best bet  would be to extend the maturity period. However, i still do believe Euro would gain against the USD, probably by June

I never use stops, because i m pretty good in analyzing my charts. So far i have always won more than i lost, without using any SLs.

Yea a lot of complain about FXCM link. I am about to change broker too.

Still doesn't make any sense.

As you all know forex is highly sensitive to press releases and press conference from central banks, governments, etc. If you can scalp and make money without having any stop loss, there's almost unbelievable. Sure, you have your ways but i been trading bigger lots and much longer period than you and i wouldn't say i never lose.

All traders lose, its just a matter how small the losses are and how big the gains are. If the trader claims he NEVER loses, i am a non believer. How would you reshape your strategy and sharpen your skills when you never lose?

Another small note: I'm not hatin on your scalping skills as i make much more than your scalp trades. I daytrade us stocks and i make 500 usd a day, if i am PROPERLY awake and do my research. Those who knows me will know my studious side. I don't claim i don't lose, but when i do lose, i admit my losses.

anyone knows a good proxy?

Why do you think GU, AU, EU will fall from these levels? Have you guys even check the bond auction?  I guess not!

NFA imposes no more hedging in all the brokers regulated under NFA
it sucks big time
now i cannot trade long term of the main trend and day-trade the retracements within the same account

who has ever got rich by using 100:1 leverage in a long run?

although, people can build up some amount by consecutive lucky winning streaks, 1 mistake will be the only and the last mistake that blows up their accounts..
if you see 100 leverage, -100 pips can kill the whole account

Well Jeff, if you watch SPX futures, its struggling to break 50 sma. USD might strengthen tonight

What happened to G/Y suddenly dropped 200 pips? E/U g/U all drop. Txi, is this your doing?

S&P cuts UK credit rating on gov deficits  - http://www.marketwatch.com/story//standard...ook-to-negative

Safeheaven now = other currencies + Gold. 

this thing is pissing me OFF !!!!   

@billytong ,
actually on thursday night it is already apparent, where the sell off in equities failed to cause a rally in Treasuries. I've actually been waiting this moment for quite long time. Placed a long position during last night's consolidation, gonna hold for quite a while. Hope it'll last. Yes, i would agree we're in a new zone...

a noob question.

how can i make at 20 pips everyday consistenly ?

i tried to set target 20 pips everyday but i think its hard cos i play micro account only.

I am wondering is anyone here are willing to share their trading method, the way I look at this forum is more on broker chatting forum. Is trading method a secret? I supposed the more people use the same trading method, the more accurate it can be.

I am newbie sorry if i say anything wrong.

Sell Eu before Thursday. ECB meeting, potential cutting interest rate or buying bonds to curb the rise of EU.
