Hi radatats, I can see your chart was taken from the GBPUSD daily..The cable have been
staring at its bottomless pit like a deer in front of headlights for months now. Like the
picture suggests, GBPUSD has to break that upper resistance trendline before a reversal can
be said to take place.. And by price closing above the No 2 level of the 123 bottom( where
your 2nd purple arrow was), an uptrend can be said to confirmed in the midterm.MACD positive
divergence to price can also be seen on your chart which foretells a probable bullish run.
But remember, technical analysiswise, the trend is still down and traders are looking to sell
at any good upward correction level. I see no changes..''Buy the dips, Sell the
rallies''..ratatatata..thats just the way it is..

So for today, Friday the 2nd of January 2009, we are looking at GBPUSD 15 minute chart where
TA wise, price is supposed to make a turnaround to the downside..while fundamentally, price
is supposed to go up due to the lower expectations of the US ISM reports coming out 4pm
Nigerian time.. so in less than 10mins from now, news is coming out...To Be Or Not To Be? TA
or FUNDAMENTALS?
we put a sell stop on GBPUSD @ 14515..1ST TARGET @ 14490..2ND TARGET @ 14465..14415...
Also a BUY stop @ 14535..1st target @ 14575..2nd target @ 14515..3rd target @ 14655..50 pip

Dear All,
Just a novice question. I keep hearing/reading the word 'intervene' by apex banks to control their currencies. When BoJ says it would intervene to maintain a strong USD, will there be any impact on EURUSD pair to maintain the correlation? |
Helloo needinfo, central bank intervention is the buying and selling of currency, foreign or domestic, by central banks in order to influence market conditions or exchange rate movement for fiscal or monetary policy purposes.
Why should the Bank of Japan intervene for a strong dollar? Because it is to their best interests. Japan, as we all know, is an export driven economy and if the Japanese yen is stronger than the dollar, it hurt their exports and consequently their economy. Why import 15000 dollar cars from Japan when you can get it cheaper right there in America? Why import expensive electronics, computers, due to a strong yen, when you can get it cheaper from America itself, or even China or India?
But wait..Japan is also a savings oriented economy, in which, majority of the US international papers or debt are held by it...So the Japanese are not thrilled to watch the value of their investments in the US bond, Treasuries and Capital markets go down the drain as the US dollar weakens..
The USDJPY monthly chart below shows the decline of the currency pair..

Compared to EURUSD(eurodollar), which is on an uptrend, a strong dollar would have a weakening impact on the euro, popularly known in international financial circles, as the ''antidollar''.. Even Trichet, the President of the EU Central Bank(ECB) might likely welcome the gesture of the Japanese with open arms, because a strong dollar would weaken the euro and save them the unsavoury task of slashing interest rates in the nearest future..You could do more research if it affects your personal finance or business objectives, need
info..Did I hear someone say ''Don ichiban''?

Let me whisk you away to the forex charts on the DISSECTION OF A TRADE GONE WRONG. Remember the loss was also important though the LESSONS LEARNT from the loss are MORE IMPORTANT.
Now we are going into the reasons why we took a buy stop at that point..
A 123 bottom formation was observed prior to the alert given out, along with an inverted head and shoulder pattern forming at the bottom...Both are reversal pattern telling us that price is about to reverse from its downtrend to an uptrend.
MACD also made a positive convergence to price which was a buy signal..For the our fib fans out there, a la moneyadd, price made a turnaround on the 30% window, instead of the 60% sell window..which is not that unusual given the strong trend downward in price..
So it was more of a matter of TIMING, rather than STRATEGY. We might be right in taking a trade based on what our strategy is telling us, but if the timing is off bat, we take the loss...In this instance, we lost 50 pips yesterday..the market is always right..quite an humbling experience, isnt it?

So for today, wednesday, price finally came around and rocketed past our 3 targets like a valkyrie..technical analysiswise, our strategy was sound but the timing was off...price then compensated us with more than 105 pips..$105 minilot, $1050 standard lot on GBPUSD.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FOLKS and we give thanks to God for seeing us through a bumpy 2008..WELCOME

Posted: December312008 at 03:29
Iwant to reprogram my EAâs from MT into the scripting language available on the front end for the CX aggregator at ATG. The scripting language is based off C++.
The First Part
âAggregates: Currenex, Hotspot Institutional, Lava, FXall Accelor and Integral (15 banks)â
http://www.aarontrade.com/html/forex_solutions_center.html
I want to have the EA programmed into the scripting language. Second, I want to see about shutting off Currenex or only having the Currenex ECN without banks. I think is an internal function but it may be something that has to also be programmed.
Second Part:
There is another aggregator FX Aggregator which is available for account minimums for 50K as opposed to the CX starting at 250, 000. The front end is the exact same thing but its aggregating different liquidity pools. I will have another account for this. There may be liquidity pools that may need to be shut off. Once again, this may need to be programmed or this may be something as simple as having a specific feed turned off. I have to check.
I need to find out a programmer who can convert the EAâs from MT to the C++ scripting language on the aggregator front end for both the 250K and the 50K solution.
If there is anybody who is qualified and seeking a temporary programming job please contact me.

The Forex Savior Seal of Approval
In light of the government takeover of Crown Forex I am once again being asked, âwhich specific broker do you recommend?â That is not for the Savior to say. Different brokers have different products and all traders should conduct a regulatory background check and thoroughly demo test a brokerâs platform before opening a live trading account.
That said there are many solid brokers in the market place who are regulated and unlikely to go under anytime soon. Here is the Saviorâs list of approved brokers:
U.S. Based Brokers
- Oanda
- FXCM
- Gain Capital
- GFT Forex
- FX Solutions
- Interbank FX
- CMS Forex
European Based Brokers
- Saxo Bank
- IG Index
- CMC Markets
- MF Global
- City Index
Banks
- DBFX
- CitiFX
I have omitted smaller based U.S. brokers who have yet to meet the $20 million capital threshold, Swiss brokers who have yet to get a banking license and any offshore broker hiding out in shady jurisdictions such as Cyprus or Belize.
Of course, any of the brokers on the Saviorâs list of âapprovedâ brokers could run into trouble in the future. If Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns can vanish overnight no financial institution is immune from insolvency. Already, I have reported on the financial troubles of both Saxo Bank and CMC markets in the last few months. But even taking into consideration the mass layoffs at both firms neither is likely to go belly up and take customer deposits with them.
In addition most of the U.S. based brokers on my list have had various regulatory actions taken against them (none of them however were charged with any financial violations and were related to marketing practices, which doesnât interest me.)
Iâm sure there are readers thinking to themselves, âthat broker on your list is a crook and a cheat so how can you approve them?!â Simple, because those who feel one of these brokers has cheated them always has the option of filing a complaint with the appropriate regulator and have your day in court. But if you are trading with an unlicensed broker youâll be lucky to even get a customer service agent on the phone to complain to in the first place let alone actually have an arbiter hear your case.
In short, I would feel comfortable opening an account with any of these brokers. Hence the reason they have been given âThe Forex Savior Seal of Approval.â

Hello guys,
I wanna say great job my strategy is very much like yours
But actually i don't watch the trades i just put the safe buy/sell STOP orders and targeting
10 pips .
I put my buy stop for up-trend when i get the confirmation of the 1, 2, 3 pattern at fibo
level 0.0 and only take 10 pips profit
the opposite for the sell but it's the same and i always lay those pips no loss
But after reading all your posts i might consider sitting in front of the screen and make
bigger profits .
My profits are big because i increase the lot size when my analysis gives higher probability
and i lay $200+ a day using it .
best of luck and again great job
but why aren't you drawing your fibo levels on the charts or you don't want it to look complicated ? :blink: |
Helloo moneyadd, thanks for reading all my posts...trying to make the time to read them myself..lol..fibonacci are great support and resistance levels that can be used in trading to ascertain price movement..but even with the knowledge of 'fibo'' levels, many traders still make losses..prefer the 60% windows which are more simpler and accurate in my personal opinion..remember KISS? Keep it simple, Smarty..so its about applying the right tools for the right markets...not all size fits all in trading..
If you check out our chart below, we used the TRIANGLE PATTERN, more specifically, the SYMMETRICAL TRIANGLE PATTERN. but why is it called a triangle? Because it looks like one..Triangles usually form part way through a strongly trending move and represents a congestive phase in the marketplace. These patterns are important because they are typically followed by sharp increases or declines in price. An established triangle pattern is a valuable signal prior to a relatively predictable price change.

Yesterday, we made more than 200 pips from our symmetrical triangle which was part of our live practical trading.
1.4770-1.4576=0.0194
1.4651-0.0194=1.4457(target point)
Symmetrical triangles, which are lines connecting peaks and troughs tend to converge at the apex which is at the centre of the pattern.When price breaks outside of the pattern, there is a high probability that the price will trend in the direction of the breakout.Once price hit our target for more than 200 pips, it now retraced upwards, . Our buy stop @ 14507 caught the bullish correction for 75 pips..

Price then retraced downward again to our previous short target of 14457, hitting it twice..

Before we knew it, price knocked 3 times and slipped downwards where our sell stop was on hand to take the move...''come to papa''..

So moneyadd, hope you now understand...actually, my clients dont really want to know the process or method in which trading takes place...all they are concerned with is whether we make money at the end of the month, recession or not..thats the primary objective..making money.

I have also heard from other persons trading this market online facing the same problems.
After threatening the customer support people they are now responding on time.
But still i have not come to know why online clients face such problems. |
sorry about that, jeff...try and look for a better and more honest broker...Even if you got the best strategy in the world, the choice of brokers is pertinent for the realization of your trading goals.

Helloo there, folks,
Price made a BULLISH GAP on the start of the Asian session, and before we knew it, more than
40 pips was emancipated from our buy entry of 14705..

Even the 60% BUy WINDOW was negated as price on the GBPUSD dropped more than 200 pips
afterwards from the TRIANGLE PATTERN shown above.
Well, what can I say?

Hi guys
I think its just too riskiy trading full stop at the moment, spreads are wide, trend is non
existent, and volume is extremely low.
I think its best staying out until at least a week into new year when everyones back from
holidaying and markets have settled down some what!
But thats just what I am thinking! |
Well, fxlion, maybe a lil positive mental attitude thinking might be in order?

Friends we cannot force anybody to join a broker recommended by us. We can only suggest them the name of that broker and tell them about the services about him. Further it depends upon the person who wants to invest in forex.
