Do you ever hold positions over night? If not you usually don't have to pay swaps.

EURUSD

Thanks for that! Actually I think that the Euro isn't worth that much currently, but it's just the counter part to the Dollar which isn't worth anything.

??? Swap free? There are some rare islamic accounts which are swap free but in general all forex brokers are not swap free... edit: I use different brokers: Oanda, Saxo, Varengold

1.05? Dream on. The good thing about the Euro is, that it's: - the Anti-Dollar - the ECB just can't print money like the FED does. I see 1.43-45 this month and ~1.35 till the end of the year.

Thanks for the link!

AUD/USD

To be honest I'm not that good in technical analysis nor this divergence stuff, so sorry. The only thing I use are horizontal zones...

AUD/USD

I know. But even looking at my charts I don't see any short - at least not at daily, weekly. Trading fundamentally doesn't necessarily mean that I'm right of course. Usually fundamentals do their job, the only question is: When?

AUD/USD

Beside 0.78 I think all those levels below are highly improbable. Why? - no more rate cuts - stable economy (the banks are not that in trouble there) - treasuries are now secured by the gov (a big plus actually!) - good exports to China

AUD/USD

Sure? I see more technicians failing. But well, there are so many ways to skin this cat. Good luck anyway buy seeing "trends" in a minute chart where is just noise...

EURUSD

I see it reaching 8500 this month. The rate cut circle is over but the RBA will have to do its best to keep this pair down...

AUD/USD

I don't care about trend lines. My fundamentals tell me we go up. Actually that can imply a test of the 1.38 support again but that's not a problem.

EURUSD

Well in that case you have to take a look at the big picture (monthly) where you see a clear up trend starting in July 2001.

EURUSD

Still looking for shorts in an up trend (since march this year)?

EURUSD

The point is that most traders never withdraw anything.

Ah ok, didn't get that initially. In US wire transfer doesn't seem to be that common, mhh?

pipmutt is right, why so complicated? Ah, because of the withdrawal fee? Come on, we all know that withdrawals usually are not necessary.

Hey, yes it's my page. Thanks for mentioning it. So why do I trade for myself? Because I just want to learn it and want to become successful. It took me years to get it finally. The period of tracking time is still too short to say something. But ...

I don't know. It might work sometimes and sometimes not. Never tried it to "resurrect" a loss.
