Forex rebates on every trade - win or lose!

Hi GFI - and here's us just sitting in front of our screens all day (well, some days)

Now you keep saying your coming back but you end up all over the place. Time you settled down :-))

well cable shying away from high....might just have to ride the 120 Yen train...

Hi h, Since begining nov when i moved up here havent been in one place for more than 3 weeks. Hopefully here til later in may when daughters half term when my time will get disrupted again for a couple weeks. Guy i was trading with has moved out2 thailand so might have to fit a trip there b4 next winter. Now living in a little white village and they call the houses fridges in the winter(occasionally more like deep freezes), so wasnt sad to be away from here for a while. Also didnt know when exactly my ex was going to have her op or how long she would need to recuperate for, so had to be fairly flexible with my time. Pretty sure i wont be here next winter, think the alps bekon for next season(plus been offered part time work if i'm not making enough s), just hope they have better snow next year.
Not sure where i want to live on a more permanent basis yet, so settling down isn't an option at the moment!

Only kidding Gfi - good luck whatever you do.

Funny how everyone seems to dosappear on this thread then it suddenly bursts to life for a short time before becoming snoozeville again.

Is there anybody there?

Yep. Still at work :S

Yep - looking in after being away for a week. Cable shorts in place.

Not sure we'll see 120 this week, foale.
Covered a yen long after lunch slightly below where it is now (118.89), although I've had a sneaky feeling that it might well break this range since the 115 low. Stuck a few short orders in between 119.40-60, and if they miss, well there's always tomorrow ;)

House prices rose 1.0 percent in March, taking the annual three-month rate to a two-year high of 11.1 percent, a survey showed on Thursday, suggesting rising borrowing costs have yet to stifle demand.

March's annual three month reading is the strongest rate of house price inflation since February 2005 when prices rose 12.1 percent and the first time the rate has risen above 10 percent since March 2005, Halifax said.

Cable 1.9710 or 1.9670/60 tops for a bounce ;)

Or we're back to 1.96.

Hi Choccy...2 more days before your namesake...

I have my line in the sand at 1.9680- 1.9695
ok its a thickish line...

I see it as much as a pivot/ springbooard towards the elusive 2
break of 1.9775 to confirm

a break down and some more serious retesting of the lows
...and yes certainly 1.9600 for starters with 1.9660 break as confirmation


In a way no rate rise removed some uncertainly for me...
as next month...points to a definiate rise to me..

Enjoy your eggs...lol

Unfortunately, it seems that Dailyfx.com have screwed up the Economic Data Release Calendar format again, so I have downloaded and converted the xls to a gif which is hosted at IST. However, for some quaint reason, my gif conversion software will not do the whole file so you've only got the first couple of days so far. I'll work on the problem and try to resolve it. Our Hil has gone skiing, so I can't ask her to use her Jpeg conversion software which is how we resolved this problem last time.

Meanwhile, good fortune all FXers.

I can't leave you alone for one single week without you breaking the blasted calendar, MM!!!

:o)

Anyway, I'm back and I'll sort it out for next week.

Hil, sorry Miss, it was Kathy, Miss.

If you produce a JPEG, mail it to me and I'll ftp onto an IST server.

Otherwise, I'll just tack another gif on the two that are already there. I seem to be using an evaluation copy of something and I suspect it restricts the size of the gif it will produce.

Any of you folks come across this outfit

www.efxgroup.com

They profess to having a trading platform which includes Level2 style data and the facility to place limit orders on the book.

Have any of you come across other brokerages providing this with perhaps a GBP denominated account ?

Complete calendar posted as Jpeg -- sorry for the fuzzy bits . . .

Thanks MM and Hilary for sorting things out.

seems v.quiet here. opened a small short on cable earlier

And me - and suffering - could do with a bit of a reverse from here. $ seems to be following the lead of DOW - i.e weakening as the DOW falls and strengthens.

However I've got the 60 minute MACD chart threatening to cross over - hence the position. BUT ...... I think I've been prematurely evaluating again. Having to wear thicker glasses :(

mg, got stopped out for + a couple. looks like its still tracking up with its 21ema. Also the candles looking fairly bullish on longer time frames.Was in eur/jpy and got out too early! Going to take me a while to get back into the swing
