Oh, forgot to mention, and what a delight it is to sit long on aud/jpy and watch the net interest calculated on ECN broker on the money that is not entirely yours. Makes you feel like a small bank giving a mortgage and getting kushy monthly premiums ...

EUR/AUD

Aesculus, was away for a while. I'm out of eur/aud but my new toy is eur/nzd, have sold eur quite heavily there at an average of 2.55. Am holding it as a long-term. As well as bought aud/jpy, Jade is on the ball when referring to aud/jpy being the ...

EUR/AUD

Jade, Very good point about the aussie being a toy soldier. In fact, i have come to watch the aud/usd way more than eur/aud trying to anticipate a drop (even a modest one) in aud/usd which will cause a massive spike in eur/aud. Am used to be most ...

EUR/AUD

TickerShuffl, Seems feasible, however, while commodities are soft, i definitely wouldn't put much hope in the upward direction. And now that EUR is retracing, it'll drag aud down.

EUR/AUD

Aesculus, I think you can congrat me and yourself on bit of patience here. I closed all my shorts with 16K AUD profit after just few days in trades. It was abit stressful y-day night when the price skyrocketed to just over 2.10. Gotta have a pair of ...

EUR/AUD

Something telling me patience can be here handsomely rewarded. Oil starts moving up from its 4-year lows as maybe a first response to OPEC cuts. Gold, which was always tied up to AUD but broke this relationship recently, has seen unprecedented ...

EUR/AUD

And fall it will. Any bit of good news of stabilization in commodities, which am sure are nearing their bottom as there doesn't seem to be alot of space left for them to keep on falling, and this will send this pair reeling down. Am stuck between ...

EUR/AUD

Only Shorts — Folks, Just came across this thread, hehe. Been trading this pair on IB most successfully despite larger spreads since its crazy splash of volatility when i was sitting at my PC and saw the (maybe) historical high of 2.11+ being ...

EUR/AUD

Gagakrimba, perfect example of GBP resiliency. 1.5% rate cut is a major boost to stock markets. Funds moving bucks from treasuries into stock, at least temporarily.

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Risk aversion — Somehow today's (5th of Nov) bad important economic news didn't see GBP flooring. May tell us the currency has developed some sort of resilience, the same thing USD had when it reached 1.60 against EUR. Rate cuts, albeit one of ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Am i missing something? — Trader101 et al, Kill me but i still don't understand one thing. Why such enormous complexity with spreadsheet, indicators, other visual tools if the method itself is so dead simple, if not banal. The way i understand ...

Simple Trading Method with trader101

Simplification? — Julius, Squeezed thru your system today and got a good theoretical grip of it. Got just one question or rather suggestion for you, squire. When you open your demo positions you establish a price benchmark! Then you sit and ...

Problems with datafeed — Marcelo, Did you take this link any further in your developments? I've got it working in one of my EAs and apart from 1-2bugs it's doing well. But the only challenge i have is a feed that i take from another bucket ...

Connecting interactive brokers to metatrader

Coder, I looked at HotSpot. It imbues trust, whereas forexgen... well, if i don't have this cozy trust feeling for starters, what's gonna come later. Paranoia about inability to withdraw funds, constant slippages, to name a few. Am much more ...

Any ECN that supports MT4 ?

Coder, Thanks alot for your feedback. Did you trade NDD with Forexgen by the way? On a different note, i've loaded HotSpot FX trader, rather sleek piece of software. How did you go about migrating your MT EAs to HS, if attempted already? Is it a ...

Any ECN that supports MT4 ?

Tdion, but then what's the point of doing this setup and going with ECN if you don't intend either to trade inside the spread or go off scalping? If you have a sound 30+ pip TP or SL strategy trying to win 1-2 extra pips to your side makes little ...

Any ECN that supports MT4 ?

Coder, Spot on. This is a big fly in a jar of jam. I've been forward-testing one of my scalping EAs on their server and often noticed that an entry/exit price is not even on the candlestick bar itself. Despite that i programmatically additionally ...

Any ECN that supports MT4 ?

Amenlo9, I just had an online chat with them y-day. First they are saying the MT4 platform connection is coming shortly (this time the estimate is 2weeks) and they said they would leave spreads to ECN Interbank completely, i.e. as low as 0pips. I ...

THE ECN room.

Tdion, Few months later, any progress on finding the ECN with MT4? I just got off the chat with Jack from atcbrokers.com. This is the transcript... Groovy: ECN on MT4 You are now speaking with Jack of Support. Groovy: Hi Jack Jack: Hello, Jack: we ...

Spot-trader: An MT4 ECN broker?

Folks, anybody has had real experience with ForexGen No Dealer Desk? I've test-driven their NDD account and can confirm the price volatility is akin to the one on Interbank. However, due to some negative reviews am dubious whether i can trust them ...
