You are completely right. All I do is play against the USD which can be done easier with trading one pair. Especially the AU and EU behave somewhat linear correlated, the UC is a bit special though. I thought about that as well and might do it in ...

I did not say that we don't use tricks here in Germany.

EURUSD

Hum? A non event? A few years ago a move more than 40 pips in the Euro was an event. NFP was good for awesome 100-150 pips in the Euro.

EURUSD

That's right. The yearly candle is still bullish.

EURUSD

You're right. I'm amazed as well. We still have job losses and people think it's over. The numbers are faked as usual. Come on, from 10.2% to 10.0%? No way without some fancy calculation. The FED won't hike anytime soon. As soon as the dust ...

EURUSD

As long as even the US simply don't want a strong Dollar, I see no reasons to fight against the printing press of the FED.

EURUSD

I'm long with 47,300 units with an average at 1.49475. Yes, that's some leverage, and yes I'm a bit worried. Fortunately I made so much before...

EURUSD

EURUSD

Had my best month ever.

That's total bullsh... Sorry to say it that hard. The main control is leverage. The stop loss does what it has its name from: It kicks you out of a trade with a loss. Of course, using decent leverage stops are necessary but to tell it the only ...

idea to avoid stop hunting

I have a better idea. Do not use stops at all. So you believe that the brokers look for our tiny mini positions to hunt the stops? On the minute chart you simply get stopped out due to market noise if your stop is too tight, but that's no stop ...
