Yes, sold for about 30 pip profit, then woke up 10 minutes ago to find madness had taken over the FOREX market :) And just re-established a short...
Took a short on EUR/USD at 1.2896 when it spiked. Stop is tight at 1.2925. Let's see if the madness pays out.
LOL...yes. And that's why the mayor of Moscow here is threatening to penalize weather forecasters' salaries every time they're wrong.
On the JPY front, I see strength from a fundamental point of view - re: China not reval'ing any time soon. You're mixing fundamental and...
Thank you for your more detailed reply. It's enough of concern for me to look for another option. Cheers. -Ivan
Yes, yes. You can be wrong frequently when you do this, and people will laugh and say "hah! He lost big", though none of them had put their neck...
Don't think you embarrass yourself by calling out the possibility of erratic action, my friend. I think if you came on here claiming armageddon...
Absolutely my strategy. For now, I've gone long USD/JPY at 104.90 because everyone is going nuts on this China reval thing for the May...

Cashed out all of my short EUR positions - 200 pip profit on one half, 180 or so on the other. I originally had a target of 1.2815, but something...
It's not just the French. People are beginning to read the tea leaves.
Chood, not disputing what you say, just trying to get more specifics. I was just about to make the switch when I saw your comments, and would...
I trimmed half of my rather large short from 1.3080 and closed it at 1.2920 to hedge against event risk of the GDP number. Felt good taking 160...
Yes, it will. The market is still pushing short on the Euro. Fed speeches keep preaching interest rate hikes.
Durables number was bad, market shot back up. But once again, I'm in this longer term. Next week, as the Fed raises, the market will resume the...
Thing is, I'm not sure I'd consider the down move over. My target at the moment is 1.2815 At that point, we'll reconsider. But if the Fed is...
Yeah, I saw that. Though I'm thinking it's a one off. I'm sure, however, that offers little comfort to your stop. Sorry, man.
