LOL! I must admit I did short the weakness below 1.4150, but only managed to get 12 little pips... Then I went to make and have breakfast, and when I came back, both EU and GU had already shot up... so I'll sit on my hands for now... probably for ...

Well, the PEC4 hasn't been approved, has expected (that sudden drop in EU is due to that) - next step is the PM meeting with the President, and after that he will address to the nation (the consensus is that he will resign). Edit: Portuguese PM ...

Well, I'm out, closed with trailing stop. It was a nice single trade day, with a nice +62 pips. I can now relax (or get nervous), and follow the crisis in my country... and discuss it a bit live, in the national forums. Good luck to all.

vsa with Malcolm

Agreed, it's not the moment for it. In my case, wasn't able to follow the trade during the day, and if failed to reach my profit by 10 pips - when I came back, it already was up 40 pips from the lows. Just waiting for a better exit point, which ...

The discussion and following voting that will lead to the Portuguese government stepping down has just started... think it will last some hours, but I'm curious to see Euro's reaction to it. I still hold a short EU from this morning, waiting for it ...

vsa with Malcolm

Yeah... and around here, it's not even mentioned or talked on the news (not more than usual, anyway). The only thing discussed here is the political crisis that may lead to the Prime Minister stepping down (and of course, then rush things out for a ...

Oh boy... wasn't giving much attention to markets today, until this high spread bar came along... And I noticed something really strange between my 2 feeds - the demo IBFX that I use to analyze charts, and my broker Alpari UK: It is usual to have 1 ...

vsa with Malcolm

That's the same as my IBFX demo feed... 1pipperhour's feed is way off, don't know why. Probably has something to do with the server used... I have the "IBFX-MT4-Demo2"... someone talked about having the demo1, but I don't even have that one listed.

Carefull. To my knowledge, MP for MT4 will show you the profile of price distribution and draw a line at the price that has been traded the most during that day (time). Though these can be close to each other sometimes... probably most of the time, ...

vsa with Malcolm

What you guys want is to draw a horizontal line that is not infinit... starts at the point you want, and ends where you want too? If it's that, there's a way, but I can't give you details now cause I'm at work and away from MT4 charts... All I ...

Indeed, seems it was. Took 4 (demo) long positions in the morning, two already reached TP and the rest, with different TPs, have SL at BE. I'm on "vacations from trading" for the 2nd week already, until somewhere around the 2nd week of January... ...

vsa with Malcolm

Are you sure it was that (not that it matters much, just curious)? Cause that news is 4h old (look at the header of the news)... unless he came back live, talking or reinforcing that view. When I saw the spike and came to my PC, I looked at the news ...

At my early stages of learning, I used to trade a little during Asia - but always thought it is generally too slow, and setups are not so clear. It is my regular sleeping time, so the only thing I do now is, when I'm still up, follow the opening, ...

vsa with Malcolm

Finally, I will go to sleep with half of that GU short still open - the first half was closed for +20 at 1.5552 (higher than firstly thought), and this half will be looking for a resuming of the downtrend (with SL at BE). If it doesn't... tomorrow ...

vsa with Malcolm

Looking to close half around 1.5530... if it gets there while I'm still awake (or else I'll close all of it); The rest might stay on the table with SL at BE, looking at the lows (below 1.55).

vsa with Malcolm

I sold it a bit lower... went to have dinner, and now I'm not liking its price action - got a SL just above 1.56, but might close it earlier to avoid swap fee. EDIT: Hummm... with this M15 close (hit by sellers), I might take my chances and leave it ...

vsa with Malcolm

My info tells me he has already spoken 50 min ago... who's wrong? Anyway, got a target of 1.3070 for my EU long, just above today's open... but might be forming a double top now - anyway, SL already at BE.

vsa with Malcolm

I didn't, wasn't paying attention at the time. But take a look at GU... it went up 70 pips from the lows, but if you look at it on M15, it has been on volume below average (compared to the previous, and for the time of the day)... something cooking ...

vsa with Malcolm

Mal, those 2 first arrows are pointing to the wrong volume bar - try one to the left Got to be very concentrated to analyze future charts... not the kind of stuff to do on a weekend start, with all the drinking and stuff, lol! Have a nice weekend ...

This is my last post about this subject. As I said on the previous one, I too have nothing against him continuing to post here. It's not even my call anyway. But this is not a thread about, as you say above, "calls"... this is about learning to ...
