EXness spikes — Hi Phil, Fathang, In fact I wrote to Exness about their spikey problem. The reply is as below - I can't believe it - they push the blame to the market! : I blocked out the guy's name to protect confidentiality.

I also think the same, but I expect cap controls or some surprise soon by SNB which will temporarily spike the pair. I think this 1.20 peg will stay for a long long time until EU crisis is over - but that'll be years. I forsee the global economy to ...

Exness spikey — Hi phil, I see that EXness is very spikey downwards and have several times gone below 1.20. Sometimes <1.1990. Another problem is that their leverage is cut to 200:1 on Fri evenings, 5hrs before market closes. Does their ECN ...

Is 1.22-25 a forecast? Nobody dares to forecast where this pair will head towards years end although SNB expects it to weaken gradually. But I don't think this will happen at least till year-end 2012. EU is in such a mess.! US is slowing down, China ...

Even with the spread of 2 pips, I can't make anything much scalping the last 2 weeks! I made more money though - from carry trade!

Then SNB will lose their credibility & reputation - remember Hilderbrand, then Jordan keeps uttering the "Utmost Determination" word. If they do something funny, the Swiss economy & people will not trust SNB anymore. The peg is not intended to help ...

SNB cannot do anything else & is left with 2 options : A - Enforce cap controls B - Buy unlimited EURs to maintain the peg @ 1.2000 They cannot change the peg - it's suicidal!

I'm also afraid if Spain fails. The astronomical bond yield sends chills down my spine... Can't sleep easy last few nights. Hi Alexcee, you were talking about asking a fortune teller some time back.... Any news? Will the floor hold?

You serious? That will be suicidal to Swiss.! It is very unlikely to happen... I'm not a risk taker, but do you guys think we should also consider something in this eventuality (i.e. should we Sell Stop below 1.2000?) But if HF players got it to ...

I believe this peg is there to stay for sometime to come. Say another year? But if (say just if) the peg breaks (due to say HF managers testing the peg attacking together), what is your opinion on it's pattern - will it drop slightly below 1.2, say ...

Will eventually rise..... CHF will eventually weaken over time. With a central bank so well known for interventions, I strongly see 1.20 peg being defended with Utmost Determination! If SNB cannot stand the inflows, Cap Controls is next by SNB. They ...

SNB wants people to get bored & abandon their longs.... Then they will do something. And this time, it will be big.!

Yes, it seems like the hot cash inflows to Swiss is slowing rapidly and soon SNB will have the chance to unload EURs. But seeing the EU crisis still far from over, will the inflows to Swiss rise again in the near future? The ESM will anyhow get ...

I was long since Sept 20th, 2011. Really tested my patience - lost halfway when I over leveraged in Dec 2011. Soon it's going to be a year.... no harm to carry trade & TP on spikes up occasionally. Today's trade balance show a slowdown. Economic ...

With all this bias of EURCHF moving up slowly, but don't know to what level, I think most of us will at one point start to close our longs. The EU crisis is more subdued now, yes b'cos of ESM & people are looking at a global crisis. SNB also slowing ...
