I hadn't paid as much attention to the Japan FY end before this year, but I think unless you have a good system to scalp the chop... seems a bit dangerous. Lots of BIG money making year-end decisions... and if you look at a daily chart for this ...

This isn't the price action I expected to see after breach of 132.50. COT data continues to be a bit difficult to apply, but I continue to be a student of the markets.

This is subject to some debate Just cracked 132.50 and ran up another 25 pips as soon as it did. Off to the races

Eur/JPY 1,500 pip prediction

It looks like 132.50 may be important. It was touched on 10/11 and repelled upward. When it finally broke on 10/23 it was a free fall. 132.50 has been tested several times already this week, including just a few minutes ago. One thing that is ...

Remember that we're approaching the end of Japan's FY. Could be a rough ride over the next 2 weeks.

With all due respect, I'm not sure you understand what you are talking about, or at minimum, what I'm talking about. Saying that though is to give you the benefit of the doubt, which I am not certain is appropriate. But I'll continue anyway: The ...

Maybe I'm missing something and if so please clarify, but if you were to receive actual volume info for a particular tick (i.e. = 3 mio) instead of just a tick (=1), there is no conceivable way to know if it was you or me that traded the 3 mio. Just ...

I think you may be confusing depth-of-market a.k.a. lvl2, with volume. Justin probably shouldn't have said "volume" in what you quoted him to say above since that's probably what threw you, but I'm certain he was referring to market depth based on ...

I enjoy the smell of a good scalp in the morning... smells like... victory. That said, it sounds like you've done very limited discretionary trading with this system. My apologies if I'm wrong, and if I am wrong, could you please advise on stats for ...

Seems like there's been some recent talk about "hedging" again lately. In FX trading, when people say hedging, they typically mean being long and short the same ccy pair. This is different than a more traditional hedge in investing, but that's not ...

Dude are you still trolling this thread? Have you learned the rudimentary application of limit orders yet? I've made over 10% on the base capital I committed to trading @ MB this year. Not a stellar year, but not terrible either as we've watched ...

I'd be interested to see what the order book said for this. You could tell exactly how long your order took to fill (and determine if that was or was not the problem). It should still be there in Nav for another couple hours.

Remember when FF admins would trounce trolls for commenting on brokers or services with less than 100 posts? Ahh the good old days. If you trade with a deal desk for any reason other than that you make heavy use of swap (which is a good reason), and ...

For my part, we'll chalk this one up to "user error" I've been very busy lately will be my excuse lol.

Buying power in Nav appears to be a tenth of what it should be based on my acct value. I don't look at this number very often, so I wondered if something had changed. I'd hate to find out the hard way that it's now 10:1 margin instead of 100:1. Web ...
