Any thoughts on the EUR Rate announcement? if they hike, is it already priced in? Sounds like it's expected either feb or march..

GBP Rate Decision

mmmm, just had a look and my broker is at 12 pip spread for the AUD/NZD. No telling what it could rise to just before the news though.... I remember reading a post by MoneyMaster on the difference between the 2 pairs at news, but can't find it now ...

Like it! I don't believe there is any such thing as a CONSTANTLY profitable trader - no one wins all their trades. A consistently profitable trader is as successful as it gets.

Who is a "Constantly Profitable Trader"?

Very interesting. It's been something I have been looking at recently - I used to trade the S&P eminis with Global Futures. I never ever experienced slippage/freezing and all the other tricks spot fx brokers can use. Never used them to trade fx news ...

An alternative to Spot Broker hijinks?

Anyone got ay experience of trading futures forex instead of spot forex? All comes straight from CME then - have heard some good reports with news trading, even though you have to pay a commission as well as the spread..

Nzd Trade Balance

Me too - by the time my broker got me in, was already on the retrace - still got out even so could have been worse! Hope you guys did ok..
