EUR/USD = "Fiber"
USD/JPY = "Gopher"
EUR/GBP = "Chunnel"
GBP/CHF = "Geppy"

:-)))

Harlosh - 07 Apr 2006 11:52 - 5337 of 11056

Thanks Hilary for your thoughts on Fiber above.

Harlosh - 07 Apr 2006 11:52 - 5338 of 11056

Thanks Hilary for your thoughts on Fiber above.

Harlosh.....Thanks for the petnames.

MightyMicro - 07 Apr 2006 12:14 - 5340 of 11056

Harlosh -- actually, I thought Geppy was the nickname for GBP/JPY but WDIK . ..

Harlosh - 07 Apr 2006 12:20 - 5341 of 11056

I've just copied and pasted from a website MM. Other than that I am unable to confirm otherwise. :-)

chocolat - 07 Apr 2006 12:33 - 5342 of 11056

;)

Harlosh - 07 Apr 2006 12:49 - 5343 of 11056

Thanks Choc.

chocolat - 07 Apr 2006 13:08 - 5344 of 11056

MM's right though - I've heard GBP/JPY referred to as geppy.
If in doubt, say Sterling/Swiss and Sterling/Yen.
I do :)

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 13:56 - 5345 of 11056

I thought that Geppy was GBP/CHF but, as I don't trade it, they can call it what they like as far as I'm concerned.

:o)

There's supposedly half a yard of 1.2200 EUR puts rolling off at 3pm. If it is going to fall lower, I can't see it falling too far till after then.

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 13:58 - 5346 of 11056

Btw, is it me or has am become horrendously slow recently? I keep having to log in as well.

chocolat - 07 Apr 2006 14:01 - 5347 of 11056

I thought it was just me Hils.

Robb - 07 Apr 2006 14:11 - 5348 of 11056

Hils/Choc - me too, its like they've re-set the time out to an hour or something, bloody annoying!

IanT(MoneyAM) - 07 Apr 2006 14:14 - 5349 of 11056

Hilary/Chocolat/Robb

We have a fix working on the problems we had a week or so ago which may be causing this slowness. I will take a look, see if I can replicate it and speak to the tech guys.

Ian

IanT(MoneyAM) - 07 Apr 2006 14:16 - 5350 of 11056

Have just done a quick scout arounf the site and all seemed as responsive as I would expect, however, I will keep an eye on things and let the tech guys know. If you do experience slowness again, can you let me know where on the site?

Ian

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 14:16 - 5351 of 11056

It needs a bit of va va voom, Ian.

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 14:20 - 5352 of 11056

Ian,

I only use the bulletin board and even then there's no more than a dozen or so threads that I look at and I also check the occasional quote, but it's very slow on those pages loading. I obviously can't comment on other areas of the site which might be slow.

IanT(MoneyAM) - 07 Apr 2006 14:22 - 5353 of 11056

Hilary,

Thanks for the feedback - response here seems ok, but I will keep a close eye.

Ian

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 15:31 - 5354 of 11056

That fiber target from yesterday is about 10 pips higher today at around 1.2090 and starting to come into sight. Just waiting till I can see the whites of his eyes before pulling the trigger.

As MM would say, "He who dares Rodders".

hilary - 07 Apr 2006 15:50 - 5355 of 11056

I've now come out of the market completely even although my target hasn't (yet) been reached because it's Poet's Day and I believe that all religous festivals should be upheld.

:o)
