Forex rebates on every trade - win or lose!

Currently long USD/JPY

Looking to short cable soon

I knew there was something I wanted to ask you Hils!

What the fer-ferk's a merkin and can you google it? :o)

You need Wigs 'R' Us, Choccy.

:o)

Where on earth did that lot come from???, take a short break from my one-post-a-week thread and all hell breaks loose!!
Anyway I think I finally cracked this FX lark, changed platforms (hilary will be proud of me..:-) ) and tried a cable trade on E-Trade, don't know how to work it, though??
Upshot of all this, manually closed the trade and didn't realise I'd left a stop on.
On returning home from work discovered not only that the stop had triggered, but had accrued me a nice +125.......piece-of-piss....ROFLMFAO.

Stormie: Welcome back!

Yup, things have livened up around these parts and there is a small, select club of finely-tuned expert FX traders here, led by that perfectly-formed band of charming ladies in the shape of hilary and chocolat.

Cheers

MM,

Long time!!.......partly explained by the fact the finely-tuned experts found out I'm not very good at FX (see post..lol) so they barred me.......but I sneak in during the wee small hours when they are not looking...LOL

ps Hope you are well..:-)

I am well, in the rudest of rude health, thank you. I trust you are the same.

MM,

Very pleased to hear that!!, things are well here also, aided I am sure by a week away from the office...LOL

Harlosh, I think (on CMC) that you are seeing dollar falling, pound rising.

Going "Long Cable" means buying a GBP/USD on CMC (I think) - I'm sure someone will correct me if wrong!

Has the paint dried yet?

Yen's very fruity this morning, goforit. EUR/JPY 2 easy moves for around 90 so far.

hils, Only trading of my laptop at the moment so struggle to watch more than one currency pair. I am learning so have stuck to cable sofar. I have recently moved out to spain, and will be getting a better computer setup in a couple of months when we've got a place sorted. Any advice/help always gratefully received.
See what you mean aboutEUR/JPY

goforit,

If you use FX Power Chart, you can watch multiple pairs/crosses at different time frames simultaneously in one large window on your laptop.

The data feed is from FXCM and therefore marries perfectly to FXCM quotes. If you use a different broker, then the price on the chart may well vary a little bit from your broker's own quote.

Edit: This is the link

hilary, thanx.

Lost my broadband connection last night and only just got back on-line. My Cable short and USD/JPY long not too healthy.

Sue42,

Thanks for that. My main confusion came from my Updata charts which appear to call pairs the wrong way round.

Nobody around today?

Still short Cable but looks as though that paint still isn't dry.

Yep I'm around, H.
No time to post at the moment :S

Harlosh
CapitalSpreads also call Cable and the Fiber the wrong way round. So you are not alone in your confusion.

Im not here really, just like to creep into a corner and bask in the greatness un-noticed.

Good to know I'm not alone :-))
