Forex rebates on every trade - win or lose!

carrying a long here, early indications are up.

Im still short +100pips at the moment

Hey where are all the fx psoters today...
Helping Hilary move house?

reckon cable has peaked today at 17920
and a retracement of todays gains is on the cards
A 17870 break (15 pips away) will see the the 4 hour uptrend line broken
Stops at 1.7925


Beeble...wake up

i'm around david, but had to have the surgeons in to
my pc - new mother board and power supply - only
just got everything going again....

i've got a long term long running still on cable,
from 176.97, but fallen in love with this position,
did add some this morning early @ 178.69, but stopped
out for -30. i'm still bullish cable, and would expect
to see 180 this week, but got to break that 179.20.

you coming to the Hook bash on wed david ?

No not thi sone Beeble...next time

Have tosay that recovery from 17880 just now is making me a bull
and agree that once 17920 is cleared 17955 is the only thing in the way fo 18000

17700 odd good long!

Hello boys. I'm back up and running .......... just.

welcome back boss,
how did it go,
all the shelves up yet ?

dont forget to turn the fridge on...

Welcome back...just in time for 1.8000+

Hi Hil, are you the broad on broadband again then?

Posting your legs again will be a good test
of your broadband capabilies

and we could then adopt it as the moneyAM "testcard"
Beeble will remember those

To me its all a blur prior to the 'Spice Girls'

You're joking aren't you, guys?

The last time that we moved the kids were only toddlers. The amount of junk that we've accumulated in the last 9 years is phenomenal. There are cardbox boxes everywhere. It'll take a month of Sundays to sort them all out.

And to make matters worse, it looks like I got stopped from my EUR/USD short too.

edit: Yes. Broadband's on MM.

I closed my short for +50. (Because of IG not because of direction change)

I still see it going down with a Mental stop @ 1.8036 - Emergency stop @ 1.8136 though.

IG Index has changed its rules and the way it works today so having to find a new sb company. Probably go with capital but for a while im out of the game. Got to learn a new enviroment.

Since Hilary branched out from Cable
I am shorting USD/Yen

Good luck Tellon...I am sure you will be back soon

the big boys are long USD/YEN minimum postion 5million levaraged. Be carefull..

Yes, good luck Tellon. I opened an IG account some time ago, looked at their ground rules and promptly withdrew my funds again. I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole.

that makes us even then :-)

seroiusly thanks for the advice

I still chuck in my 2 cents worth, all though they will be paper trades.. People are a lot braver with virtual money so you will need to take my comments with a pinch of salt..

Tellon... all comments welcome

Closed small long for not a lot after being negative for a lot of the day but off on holiday in a day or two so decreasing positions.
Tellon did you do daily/rolling spot with IG. They are pigs because all their prices (your stops/limits) settle on their midprice. I see their interface has changed but hadn't noticed any actual trading/spread differences
Finsptreads aren't perfect (eg. not open during the night)but for someone like me who only trades 3-5 pounds a point with wide stops I actually find them quite good. The main reasons being they will always settle on the stop/limit bid/offer specified (yes I see you could be gapped overnight if stops too tight but with my wide stops it hasn't actually happened to me). The biggest advantage I find with them is that you can run trailing stops up very close behind the price, of course if you run it too close you will often be stopped out but when sharp moves occur it seems easier to get most of the move, sometimes even getting back in,or making it easier to put on pyramid trades by "gain locking" the first and/or the second one. Spreads could always be closer but may be a little less than IG.
Of course, I am only a relatively new currency trader who tries to add a bit extra to other trades and ETrade probably wouldn't even let me trade currency but I always appreciate the views of the experts on this thread.
