You are not alone. I would say most people lose money when they first start. It is not easy. It took me approximately 2.5 years to finally turn a profit. When I say that, I mean that it took me that long to make back my losses. If you are afraid ...

AUD/USD

Thanks for the chart. Will bang those levels on a chart and see how it goes. Got in at 1.6228 and nicked some. Had noted that 1.6230 was a stop level for some posters and it had done a range of 180 pips for the day so considered it to be relatively ...

EURUSD

Pop, pop, pop - you in yet?

EURUSD

Mmmmm, what's the bet they might push it a bit further up? FXCM's clients have loaded up on their shorts today. Let's hope their stops can handle whatever may be thrown at them tomorrow. GBP likes to inflict a lot of pain. GBPUSD - The ratio of long ...

EURUSD

LOL - I've opted for the taser. Me thinks it's time to take leave for a while. Had enough of reading the above kind of shite Have a good Xmas!

EURUSD

OMG, two months later and you’re still banging on? I think you are confused because it was you laughing at all the trend traders until it reversed on you and you had to frantically hedge your arse. Then you said it was going up and it ...

EURUSD

USDX playing out as anticipated. Shame I didn't take advantage of it by selling the EUR. Had a quick squiz at the EUR thread - there's quite a lot of pain and suffering going on over there with some substantial losses for some posters. My view ...

AUD/USD

You have 13 posts and have opened 6 threads. Last time I visited NZ it seemed like everyone was on P. Is this a side effect?

Is The Trend At An End?

Wow - getting a bit heated in here on almost a daily basis. I've never thought of the A/U as a dog but each to their own. This bad boy is holding up really well while the EUR is tanking. This pair hasn't been worth trading this week. A/J has been ...

AUD/USD

You are so much further ahead than I was after 11 months - believe me I just got back home and see not a lot has changed on the charts. I even placed a small short this morning for 20 pips. Trying to ease myself back into buying the US$. I find ...

AUD/USD

Nice one Kimd. Stand by your convictions. I know it can be hard when you read other's comments on a thread and they are opposing your view. I still get swayed now and again. And look at WallStBully the other night! Part of the problem is ...

AUD/USD

Sorry had to catch a few zzzz's. Yeah it indicates more downside. FXCM pride themselves on the fact that their contrarian sentiment index catches turns in the market early. I know what you mean about AUD's fundamentals but sometimes the market just ...

AUD/USD

Okay, cool. Have just checked FXCM's retail sentiment. Haven't looked at it for a few days. What a change in sentiment - 65% long on EUR, 68% long on GBP, 59% long on AUD and 62% long on NZD

AUD/USD

LOL - thanks - how did you know that was one of my favourite beers? You survived the onslaught of A/U and came out the other side smiling. I had faith in you

AUD/USD

Huh? Me building shorts? I think you have me confused with someone else. Since it broke 0.8500 in September I think I have only placed 2 short trades which were short-lived. Only been going long on this baby but now I'm standing aside. Didn't catch ...

AUD/USD

Yeah, it's hit a level that I had my eyes on - 50% fib from last swing as well as 34 EMA on daily which has acted as good support since August but I'm too to go all in at the moment. Might wait to see if it can get to 50 MA on daily ...

AUD/USD

What do you mean your S/L never held? Did it disappear from your platform? Keep up the positive attitude

AUD/USD

Are you expecting a low range week then Puks? I've just checked the high and low - we've only done 168 pips so far with high at 0.9187 and low at 0.9019. Thought we had travelled further than that but it's been more like death by a thousand cuts ...

I've brought my soldiers back home with a few pips in their pockets. Will redeploy at lower prices. Roger, over and out

AUD/USD

all my soldiers are brave because they've got many troops behind them ready to be deployed at a moment's notice Bit like the endless US troops being sent to Afghanistan. The only difference is - one of my soldiers doesn't cost me a million ...
