OK, now you're talking. But did this happen only on Oanda ? Also, I've seen 1-2 times before when Oanda had smaller false spikes and as I understand they refund you either automaticly on some occasions or if you ask them on others. At least that's ...

Oanda Stop Hunting?

I was watching the euro 1m chart live during those news. While I didn't compare it to other feeds I did not see a spike of 30 pips back and forth as in that video. Like someone mentioned here it's possible that those were feeds from different ...

Oanda Stop Hunting?

That's if you try to occupy the country. I don't see why that's needed at all or worth the cost of the life of any american or normal person, at least in Iran. Simply, they need to eat - so they'll keep pumping oil as that's the only thing they got. ...

Cool man, like I said to me at least a retrace to around 57 seems quite likely now, even if after that it crashed down. Let's wait and see, not much longer left. jrl, I seriously doubt that Iran would take any serious military measures even if ...

I'll answer to the thread's main question: Yes. You are wasting your time. Trading a real account you learn 1000 times faster. And, you're not getting any younger in the mean time, life's short - go for it. Doesn't mean you have to put a lot of ...

Am I wasting my time with demo?

Good. The you don't mind that in the next month or so it has no affect. Also, it's not that "poor" trendline stopping euro it's also the daily 100 ema. Both are strong resistances as you can see. Trade as you see fit anyway of course. Now it's ...

url They've been talking about raising to 4.5% a bit later at the start of the month when we had a raise to 4.25%. I didn't follow more recent rumors, so maybe things changed and I don't know about it. This is from yesterday about the FED's 2%: ...

Well that may be. But they don't really control the market, they can just try to. After all, let's all remember that no one was really happy, niether Europe nor the US when 1.5 was broken less than half a year ago. But some big banks and some of us ...

Great post. I'll watch the retrace to 57+ hopefully and then be carefull and look for the possibility of a break south. Will be a great day too, the safer the pips the better they are.

EURUSD

Too far in the future to trade or make use of now I think. But quite possible if we have a retrace now for a while and then a fall through. I don't like the fact though that we're not going a bit higher. Won't look that good if the market closes at ...

EURUSD

Thanks. Seeing the big picture though is a lot easier than trading it. Still, trying to learn and improve day by day. I see forex as the ultimate intellectual playground, forget chess, this is real unlimmited cash and everybody's trying their ...

I've been repeatedly fascinated in the past 2 days how much attention people give to relatively small things while they seem to ignore the fact that they got a year+ old trendline on the charts that the WHOLE market sees and minds (at least anybody ...

Like I said.. terpenie (patience).

EURUSD

Hmm... your chances are getting more and more slim now, as I see it. I'd love to see the market close above 620 though, that could really be a bye bye kiss to the dollar.

EURUSD

I have a few small longs near 56 and one tiny still from 658. I see no reason to close any of them though, my sl is at 495. This thing will either go up or down and even if it's down I'll cover up for the loss in less than 100 pips fall, which would ...

Looks more of a now or never (the next month) situ to me. Let's see..

EURUSD

It just breached the big bad year trendline a bit and now sitting on top of it. If it holds I suspect the next objective for EU is 59+. If it doesn't, 53-.

EURUSD

Really ? I'm not really keeping up with this stuff much as I don't ussualy trade longer term for me to care about it beyond the actual time of annoucement, this was what I heard. Great to know then, thanks man.

EURUSD

Well that's where we disagree I guess Shadow. As I see it "wishes" don't move the markets. The EU's interest rate difference has been increasing and I understand ECB will raise another quarter of a percent in sptember. And like I was saying, oil and ...

EURUSD

You guys have this prevailing insight for some reason that "smart" and "strong" money is short. I don't see that. If smart money was short than why are we not falling and why was the fall so gradual and why the very tight and controlled ranges like ...
