This is from the ODL website. Are all brokers doing the same or only ODL. Is there lack of liquidity in the forex market?

Spreads Temporarily Widened

Under the current market conditions, we unfortunately have had to widen the quoted spreads on a number of currency pairs that we offer.

We hope to return to normal service as soon as liquidity returns to the Forex Market

jeff, is that new? think that happened at xmas time as well with them

hilary - 18 Feb 2009 09:08 - 10269 of 11056

I've found it a problem again this week, Jeffie. It's gone back to how it was in October.

I think cable needs to clear the 1.41 - 1.43 range and then the commercials will probably come back in to play again.

gofor
It didnt have a date, was on the ODL home page so I would expect it to be current

chocolat - 18 Feb 2009 09:20 - 10271 of 11056

Most annoyingly, EUR/GBP has widened to 5 pips.

jeffmack - 18 Feb 2009 09:27 - 10272 of 11056

More pips than Gladys Knight

chocolat - 18 Feb 2009 09:29 - 10273 of 11056

But that's only on odie, jeffie ;)

chocolat - 18 Feb 2009 11:49 - 10274 of 11056

Well there's a thing.
Odie's narrowed EUR/GBP to 3 now.

hilary - 18 Feb 2009 11:55 - 10275 of 11056

Odie make their own market, Chocopops.

Btw, did you subscribe to that Daniel Malarby Robin Hood thing by any chance? I did and also to some eejit called Martin Alexander. I just wanted to see for myself if their ideas had foundation.

I should have followed my instincts and known better because I'm now getting spammed by some outfit in Peng Tong Plaza in the Seychelles which is starting to hack me off.

chocolat - 18 Feb 2009 12:02 - 10276 of 11056

No I didn't Hiltops - meant to mail you (and I shall) but when I looked at the thingie again, it just didn't look that useful in practice.

Oh and then you can let me know how you got on with walrus woman ;)

hilary - 18 Feb 2009 13:08 - 10277 of 11056

It might be the Jappy DNT which is giving the grief.

hilary - 19 Feb 2009 08:35 - 10278 of 11056

Were you starting to doubt the Power of the Dog Food, Flossie?

:o)

Seymour Clearly - 19 Feb 2009 09:08 - 10279 of 11056

Well Hiltops, I was beginning to wonder, but had 2 longs closed out before work, one's been running a few days whilst some shorts got closed. That's made more money than I'm likely to today at work.

Or you could just say I've Wonalot :-))

jeffmack - 19 Feb 2009 14:06 - 10280 of 11056

GBP/JPY on a charge

chocolat - 24 Feb 2009 09:21 - 10281 of 11056

I'm not really clued up on the head 'n shoulders stuff, but I doodled a couple of lines in on a 4hr EURGBP chart a few weeks ago.
And yesterday, and overnight, the neckline held very well.
Not sure what happens next though :)

chocolat - 25 Feb 2009 13:21 - 10282 of 11056

Further to yesterday's activity, thought I'd mention that my downslopey shoulder thingie is currently residing around 9050.
I also have an armpit jobbie currently projecting to around 8530 :)

jeffmack - 25 Feb 2009 13:22 - 10283 of 11056

What does all mean choccie

chocolat - 25 Feb 2009 13:31 - 10284 of 11056

NFI jeffie ;)

tyketto - 25 Feb 2009 14:19 - 10285 of 11056

choccie,

chocolat - 25 Feb 2009 14:40 - 10286 of 11056

Thanks tyketto - I did look at that site a while back, plus some others.
Thing is, it says something about the pattern being complete when the neckline is broken.
Well on my chart it's the armpits that are holding up, really - and it doesn't say anything about those. And since then, the neckline did the job again.
Also, all 3 lines are sloping down in varying degrees of decline.
Beginning to wonder about elbows too :)
