I think as being so prominent as SNB they should act more responsibly and should withdraw from 1.2000 cap program gradually, giving the markets some time to cool down. I think they didn't expect themselves there in SNB to make such a big mess around ...

I checked some UK brokers and it goes like: "(...)regulated and authorised by UK Financial Conduct Authority(Reg no FRN522157). Under FCA client money rules, we are strictly required to segregate all retail client funds from our own. "Your funds are ...

Hmmm.... YES and... NO. :-) Cyprus, even as EU state has always enjoyed "different" corporation and tax laws comparing to the mainland EU countries. This is why so many companies kept their "head offices" in Cyprus, even they mainly operated in ...

I am not with them, but that's what it looks like to me. Some traders say for instance Saxobank has altered their closed positions 12 hours afterwards. So some people went out from LONG EURCHF on stop loss @ 1.1950 and then SaxoBank changed their ...

Man... You are lucky you with OANDA :-) (...) “OANDA did not re-quote or amend any CHF cross client trades. We even took the further step of forgiving all negative client balances that were caused when clients could not close out their positions ...

The range of CHF move is something that hasn’t ever been seen even to the most exotic Far East currencies involved in wars and terrorist attacks. I have never seen something like this. This would be branded is the FX event of the century and I ...

hehe Orion.... If there would be any kind of voting here on FF for "THE BEST POST OF THE YEAR" I will definitely vote on your post. Just to let everybody know, this is what Orion posted here on January 6th, 2015. It's fekin amazing. I hope you ...

Well... ALPARI web site clearly states: (...) Where a client cannot cover this loss, it is passed on to us. This has forced Alpari (UK) Limited to confirm today, 16/01/15, that it has entered into insolvency. Retail client funds continue to be ...

Alpari.co.uk Discussion

Oh no... not at all. I am afraid it could take long months in case of insolvency. even years. Despite government guarantees, it works like with any other limited company. It must undergo strict bankruptcy procedures which takes time. 1. First, the ...

Hi justme Every broker here in Europe must comply with its country regulators. Most of EU countries have something like "government guarantee" that a portion of their deposit is secured by government in case of broker or bank insolvency. The ...

Thanks for video Samdani. You said "you always recommend using STOP LOSS" The problem is in case of yesterday CHF crash most of brokers didn't respect SL's and many have suspended quoting and trading CHF pairs for hours. Traders could only watch as ...

I know :-) I feel comfortably with 50-100pips targets. I know people keeping positions opened for months. I don't have such patience ...

EURUSD

Well, the problem is many traders dream about catching big move like 700-800pips looking for the entires on 5M chart with 10pips SL and full leverage involved. They can't understand this is "Mission Imposible". Without proper money managemet and ...

EURUSD

Just like in my previous post. It's all about the pips you want to eat. This MIGHT BE a buy zone if the first signals are confirmed and if you're targeting first 30-50 corrective pips. That's all. If you are however planing to grab entire 500pips or ...

EURUSD

hehe,,, yeah. It's all about what chart people see and where their targets are. Someone on 15M says "good, go long" and the other one on 1D says "no man, go short" In fact, they all are looking on different structures. I tried many times being LONG ...

EURUSD

Hmmm... not quite agree with you buddy... I mean about going LONG. You probably have noticed very low liquidity on each currency pair. Most of "Big Boys" have already been out enjoying Xmas. Without them we'll probably go sideways bouncing up and ...

EU is sitting now on a very strong support line (MONTHLY CHART) As we don't have any significant news events in next two weeks I think a small corrective bounce move is more likely. (DAILY CHART) image image

Hey PT... Looking through my binoculars (chart1- MONTHLY) I think we're are already DONE (technically) for this moment, and 1.4000 should remain untouched. We're are perfectly sitting on long term 50% Fibo, and before FED press conference we had ...

EurAnalysis

You were right buddy... After 3 days of consolidation the price didn't manage to break through support line, and today's figures from EuroZone definitely helped the Euro. I think now we should be heading towards 1.3700-1.37100, as a decision point. ...
