Forex rebates on every trade - win or lose!

Hmmm. Didn't like the look of it myself.

Hope it ain't too bad mg.

Doncha just f@@ing hate it when that happens. Stops triggered as per good management and then it flies away in the right direction after kicking you in the wotsits.

Net loss of 75 points :(

Sorry mg - great recovery overnight too :-(

Still long Cable here.

furtling -- another one for the FX lexicon.

Out of my long now and looking to short if the BOE keep rates on hold.

Short from 330

Great entry H - I'm still sulking - no positions - but did fancy shorting cable on BOE news - but didn't if you know what I mean :(

Thanks mg though stopped out in the end for +30.

And I know how you feel - had plenty of days sulking myself!

I'm thinking we will see Cable fall at some stage to unwind the shorter term stochs after which we should see some upside (and hopefully some movement).

Well I'm +92 so far on my first $/Yen trade - currently long :-))

Evening. Stuck some charts together, with some comments to show what
I'm looking at and thinking about at the moment.

Just had transfer a few more K to Miss Mel's account. Apparently you have
to pay 500 up front in fees for your finance exams. They know how to
bleedin' charge, don't they?
And the rest is for yet more power dressing trouser suits.
" But dad, they're de rigueur for young ladies who are something in the city!"

What do they make the bleedin' things out of these days? Spun Gold?
Think I'm getting conned a bit here, as usual :-)
Talk about wrapped around her little finger. Daughters and their dads, eh. :-)

Just a bit of musing, so make your own mind up and look for correlation
in other asset classes.

I've put on the 3 ma's you guys seem to like on your Hourly charts, even
though this is a Daily chart. Not sure if you use them outside the Hourly
charts.
If you do, they give a different view on this one as opposed to the shorter
term charts.

Swiss National bank interest rate decision, and they only do it quarterly, this week.Upward revision expected, priced in-maybe not?
As secondary beneficiary of carry trade, upward revision and implied loss of liquidity may have more impact on other crosses (yen) than generally anticipated.

First post for many months, but back into the fray once more. Left a sell order at 11820 ($/Yen) last night, jumped the 2 hourly MACD a little early, but hoping it will fall through 18200.

Baks - congratulations on your recent addition :)

Forexers, The Economic Data Release Calendar is not all it should be. Our source is DailyFX and, unfortunately, they have screwed up the formatting and even the spelling of the title. I have downloaded the Excel spreadsheet, fixed the spelling(!) and constructed a couple of gifs, but they are cut off in their prime for some reason. I'll try and sort it out later.

Thanks Pete. The little monkey is 4 months old now and a delight :-)

Not done much forex trading over the last few months but have reading the usual informative posts on here.

Hoping to get back into it soon though.

MM,

Got your email, but don't really know what to suggest other than what you've already done.

There are JPG print drivers available for download on the internet. One of them might work better for creating the image as you could adjust the Excel page setup to how you want it it, then print to a single JPG rather than creating two or more images and splicing them together.

Closed at 18745 for +73.5
Sell order was filled at 11818.5, (forgot about the spread), guess I could have left it a little while longer, but discretion won out, especially as I was driving and PC less at the time.

Welcome back Pete - got your PM thanks but not sure I can make Wednesday yet. Where you been anyway?

Thanks MM for your efforts and Hilary of course for keeping the header going for us all.

Eur/$ has broken resistance from 7th March - Looks like a nice bet for a steady climb higher IMO.

FXers: A complete Calendar is now in the header thanks to Hilary's inventive use of a JPEG.
