Thanks for posting that video, and I did see some serious scuffling there. The live cam I saw early only showed police and demonstrators milling around. I still would have liked some better "down 50+ pips in a flash" news like Grexit on Sunday. An ...

Low risk is always good in these situations. I just hope she (E/U) showed you her s/t bottom ... she's very tricky about that.

EURUSD

Or, you could even get long @2900 in anticipation of the fall at 2922!? Pick up some easy coin! ...okay, maybe not.

EURUSD

I think E/U is a lying witch who will keep rolling over again and again until every unsuspecting would be long gets in to be clipped... maybe at 2840/50 The protester news also lies. I saw a bit of video and it looks like a bunch of guys milling ...

I guess this wouldn't mean Spain takes the bailout sooner than later... Which is worse: a) Spain with austerity and enough money to pay the bills or b) Spain with a bunch of hotheads and a fiscal train wreck up ahead?

I was mistaken there... I did see a mathematical proof that MM cannot make a coin toss with a fixed stop profitable but the Martingale equivalence thing is wrong (sorry, long day)... Attila is absolutely right about coin toss trading profitably if ...

EURUSD

Wait a minute... I'm going to agree with you on that. If there is the added element of judgement about when to get out of the trade... then, yes a skilled trader could do very very well. PS: thought of something else - doing the coin toss thing ...

EURUSD

But seriously, I have seen a proof that this is equivalent to a martingale... too late in the day to argue it vigorously though.

EURUSD

Sure, if the coin is loaded!

Your both right. Geppy was quibbling with someone about whether forex is a coin toss this morning and it occurred to me that it really is good to keep in mind that the random element is always and will forever be present. That way, when you take a ...

My full name is Random Walker, (my friends call me Randy) and I believe I can add something here. You are right about the presence of a perceived random element in Forex trading; but, it differs greatly in size from trader to trader... this is one ...

You know, we haven't had a normal range-bound NY afternoon for a couple weeks... we could rattle around btwn 2890 and 2920 for the rest of the day.

EURUSD

Yup. And 29 to 35 would just about do the trick.

This is starting to look like a slow motion bear trap... for quick-turn bears with the frog-like characteristic of not jumping when the water heats up.

EURUSD

Phew! I may be making trades like this without knowing since I am a discretionary trader... I was just trying to figure out whether it would be gamed out existence as a profitable trade (and I think it would if it were too simple) at some time in ...

I would assume that professional traders would be able to take advantage of this breakthrough "AS-IS", but do you think someone could simplify it to the point where it could be used by noobi traders just looking for beer money? ...or maybe automate ...

EURUSD

Too bad you can't stay up 24 hrs a day... now if I could just find some way of automating discretionary trading ... Ahh! It moved! (...George Costanza) Gotta get back to trading.

EURUSD

Yeah, okay. I see what you're saying now! (getting comments and contexts crossed here: before today / after today) Thanx

EURUSD

Ok. Now I've confused myself: if by banks being made short you mean they've been the broker/dealer counterparty to long positions opened on Thrus and Fri, they would be short and want to see the price go down so they can offset at a profit (assuming ...

EURUSD

"...banks are made short..." So you think they might "help" it a little?
