Awesome Jason, thanks! I just tried to reach you in NYC, but I was kept on hold for a long time. Guess the receptionist went out for lunch.

I've searched, and I can't find anything on this. Is there a reason that FXCM isn't supporting the Trade Explorer for the last 6 months or so? I'm getting this message: url

Stupid me. I would rather sleep than be successful. I did all the analysis prior to entering short - was fairly positive of the continuing direction, but the pillow was calling. image

There's some serious divergence in the JPY crosses over the last 12 hours, mirroring the last month or so. Perhaps as the US economic environment is looking stronger, the traditional Geppy carry is returning. The US indicators are risk on/off for ...

What? Surely the author Brett Arends is a retard. He follows it up with this: Obviously he knows nothing about foreign exchange, and certainly hasn't been paying attention to global economics for the last 100 years. Hey Arends, this is a ...

Yet here you are, making money off of the systems they've created. The conditions at IB's are made so that the weakest fall out, and for good reason. This is a tough business, and only the smartest, hardest working, and resilient can be allowed. It ...

So could you read into that there may be some buyers to support 1.3700 so their options won't be worthless? Or could equal logic apply for the opposite side?

url I posted a question on this article - does anyone here follow options to understand where S/R is biased?

This excites me - IT IS POSSIBLE! Now, let's all get to work!

I'm curious, are these CME FX options this guy is referring to? Also, would those be current month contracts? It would be an interesting study to check the option book against the spot market for the type of trading I do.

Actually, read all you can. The secrets are in the books. No man should be shallow enough to believe they have all the answers. As the saying goes, only the fool and the wise man never change. Also, to piggyback off of the article, schedule ...

Yes, I am aware of the correlation, however I don't trade it. As part of the global economy, the US equity markets are obviously included in my analysis.

This is really worth the read.

It's unfortunate that you have no understanding It's obvious that you have to speak out of your arse to exaggerate your sentiment. Surely, your reasoning cannot be so short sighted or illogical. Money is a tool for transferring trust. The value of ...
