Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Just a warning that the crude oil inventories report does impact USDCAD more than any other major. It may be possible that MMs create a pump and dump situation based off the liquidity generated by these events. Of course, who really knows? I'm ...

I think your analysis of CAD is spot on. The GBP data on Friday may be what sends CAD farther down, but I wouldn't be surprised if the USD data/CAD Current Account releases on Thursday determine the rest of the week's trend for USDCAD. At the very ...

Saw this on another thread and thought it was too good/relevant not to post here!

I saw a drastic improvement in my trading after taking your advice. I think I may have discovered the holy grail....thanks a ton!

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Kinda feel like most of the guppy action just ended for the day. Please prove me wrong. Please don't be boring again...

I don't disagree with you over algos becoming more and more common, but if you look at the chart Jeremy attached, pip range hasn't changed almost at all since '95. Sure, we very well may be a period of lower ranges, but a similar situation happened ...

EURUSD

Agreed. Thanks for sharing!

Can't speak for the Swiss and Germans, but I used to tutor Russian students all the time. A Russian who knows English makes about 20% more regardless of the white collar job.

Is there any reason you left out scouts from this sentence?

Darwin, Thank you for the interesting tool! After reading both of your other threads, I can definitively say you have done a great job of not only identifying a problem but also providing a realistic solution to a problem. I'm not much of an EA ...

It's really unbelievable what MMs can do. USDCAD did the same thing this morning as well. There was much less volume until about 30 mins before CAD data was released, and then it picked up drastically before crashing. Great stuff!

I think this is what caused the sudden upward movement.

I agree that your entry was taken at a great place and UJ does seem rather bearish in many respects, but how are you and JRissa dealing with the fact that price has been consolidating beneath the 1/2 number for the past 12 hours? Are you guys just ...

Yes, yes, I get that. Many Sonicers won't place trades right before a news release... I'm asking if a lot of unexpected whipsawing occurs on days like these due to G20 events. EDIT: It's fine. I found a more responsive answer elsewhere.

Dear EURUSD, I generally try to avoid the dark abyss of FF (ie this thread ), but I have a question for you expert types. I'm still working on a lower TF approach and as such am more dependent upon the effects that news has on short term price ...

For those of you who have traded G20 news days (like the one tomorrow)... What are pairs like on these days? Do they experience a lot of whipsaw as different speakers take the stage? Does not that much happen? Just curious. Can't say I'm very ...
