08:02 EUR/USD: Good bids Ahead of 1.1900, stops Under 1.1885] London, Feb 22.
With German growth data showing an unchanged 0.0 return for the fourth quarter
of 2005 the EUR got off to a soft start in Europe. The Asian market peaked at
1.1930 after the EUR based at levels around 1.1905 at the North American close.
Price action remains tight with the week not really off the mark following the
US holiday.
The German data has been slightly offset by French business sentiment and
consumer spending numbers, which have bettered market expectations. The EUR fell
to 1.1907 from early European highs around 1.1928 but has bounced back to
1.1917, where small offers have held the rise.
Talk in the market of good-bids in the 1.1900-10 area and stops under 1.1885.
The EUR has been hemmed in by orders since last week"s 1.2025-1.1890 fall and
the market appears unsure of direction.
Clouding direction is the on-going second guessing over US monetary policy and
the thorny issue of inflation. Some Fed officials still see US inflation too
high, according to the WSJ. Fed"s Fischer has made it clear what he thinks of
the inflation threat and sees very strong growth in Q1. US CPI data id due at
13:30 GMT.

Hopefully after 09.30 we should see sum movement ,was a bit slow yesterday.

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 09:31 - 4825 of 11056

Pleased with that - took 28 on the 9.30 spike up in 5 seconds.

Divetime - 22 Feb 2006 09:44 - 4826 of 11056

Well done Maggot,I am staying long at the moment.

chocolat - 22 Feb 2006 09:45 - 4827 of 11056

Nice one Maggot :)
Now it's exhausted.

hilary - 22 Feb 2006 09:47 - 4828 of 11056

Well I'm shorting the reaction.

edit: If it's nfg, worst case I'll be out flat.

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 10:04 - 4829 of 11056

Weird - just had a hanging yellow ticket and eventually a grey ticket with: Cancelled - Call dealing desk to trade. Blimey - for a 1 bet!!!

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 10:29 - 4830 of 11056

Yes - again unable to put on-line trades on forex with cmc. That's cost me another 25 points at least.

hilary - 22 Feb 2006 10:46 - 4831 of 11056

Maggot,

I don't know why you even bother with them. There's a herd of sheep on the other thread who don't want to listen and who come up with silly excuses.

It's time to move on.

Gausie - 22 Feb 2006 10:59 - 4832 of 11056

wedge or pennant on the 5mins cable

My BPH6 now back in profit

hilary - 22 Feb 2006 11:01 - 4833 of 11056

Well done, G, I've covered for now while it rises on the 1 minute.

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 11:05 - 4834 of 11056

Hilary - how do you trade Forex? I use mainly cfds for equities (apart from tiny trades on the FTSE 100s occasionally).

PS I've put a post on the cmc thread - similar to your views I suspect.

Cloudbase - 22 Feb 2006 11:11 - 4835 of 11056

Maggot.....Hi, i only kept cmc for forex as up to now been no problem but i also had a requote for 5 after held yellow, time to close account.

Gausie - 22 Feb 2006 11:19 - 4838 of 11056

Anyone else here trade currency futs on DMA?

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 11:20 - 4839 of 11056

Hi, cloudbase. Nice to 'see' you again after Manchester.

CMC is so quick, and they offer the free charts (though they are not brilliant, are they?) Also a simple site - couldn't work out how to use the Cantor site, and IG wasn't easy, to my mind. But I am simple anyway!

hilary - 22 Feb 2006 11:32 - 4840 of 11056

FXCM, Maggot.

There's a Bubble banging the ECB drums currently giving EUR some support.

Maggot - 22 Feb 2006 11:38 - 4841 of 11056

thanks, Hilary

Gausie - 22 Feb 2006 12:01 - 4842 of 11056
