Forex rebates on every trade - win or lose!

MM

Many thanks for the reply. Must say I am a little more relaxed about the issue now, although at the time I was somewhat agitated. I will keep a close eye on proceedings in future, but considering moving to a different broker anyway.

MM,

Just a thought re the calendar.

The page setup for the XLS file is such that it prints by default as a percentage of normal size. This could be the reason that you end up with 3 separate GIF's.

Have you tried altering the page setup so that it scales to 1 page wide and tall on the largest size paper (Legal) before you print the GIF?

I had exactly the same problem going the XLS>PDF>JPG route.

Hil,

Could you ping me an email (I assume your email has changed as you've moved ISP). The utility I'm using doesn't go via the printer/PDF route but extracts directly from the selection -- so paer size/scaling shouldn't make any difference. I've bugged the author . . . ;-)

MM,

You should still be able mail me via my Pipex address. I understand what you're saying about paper size, but I figured it might be worth a try nonetheless.

MACD is still falling and the price action is below the falling MA, so it's not a long. I am conscious, however, of just how oversold it's starting to look.

my net dania and fxcharts not updating both stuck on 1.9938 whilst the quote is
currently 1.9956-60. Anyone else got this problem?

Nope, mine seems ok.

Mine are stuck, D. They have been playing up for a couple of days now.

ok thanks Hils...saved me a reboot....
odd for netdania to get stuck....
it does happen on fxcharts more often...

I'm not going to paste another daily USDX chart today, but there are further signs that the Dollar might be turning. I guess we're seeing a fair bit of profit taking every time the Pound goes over $2. It knocked it back a fair bit yesterday afternoon.

I suspect it will take a few more days yet to get a clear picture of where we're headed.

USD/CAD looks iffy, still looking to trade short but using tighter stops. Watching AUD/USD, might be about to turn on the dailys

re charts, been using prorealtime charts the last couple weeks and I like them(use fibs quite alot for retracements). You can get a weeks free trial to try them out. Very similar charts to you know who! noticed little price divergences occasionally! Also had problems with fxcharts but i only use the freebie

Trying a dummy acc. with fxcm and have had problems with limit orders(not being executed correctly) yesterday, presume its me getting it wrong. Certainly prefer the dealing page etc. to unowho

in on the spike

Zooming in, there are some clearer signs imo this morning that we may be on the turn.

I did read an article the other day suggesting that the Fed would be forced into increasing rates against expectations. That could easily prove to be the "news catalyst" to drive the Dollar going into the summer quarter.



Btw, MM, my old email account was closed a few hours after I posted 7850 the other day. You can now contact me by using the same username@sky.com.

Today's US jobs data released at 1:30 BST, is expected to reveal that 115,000 net new jobs have been added in April after adding 180,000 jobs in March. The unemployment rate is seen rising slightly to 4.5%, up a tick from 4.4%.

Well that was rubbish :)
Plan B then.

c - not as many lines as normal!

Normal, gofe? ;)

for what it is worth (little to less than nothing) we shall be looking (hoping) for $ to strengthen to about 19700 before falling away again, ultimately to 207000, though this latter target could take 6 or evben 12 months to reach

Thanks to the co-operative technological effort rendered possible by the interweb thingie, the Economic Data Release Calendar has been updated by Hil + self.
