Yeah it had a beautiful wolfe wave setup coinciding with a demand zone. I've just exited a little under 185, guess I'll join you in the steakhouse for dessert
GBPUSD on a tear as market jumps on risk and M&A chatter
- slipshod commented Aug 10, 2015
Notice the drop in the AUD started about 15 minutes before the news came out. I guess insider trading's fine when the banks do it.
NAB Business confidence and conditions drop back from 'exuberant' levels
- slipshod commented Aug 4, 2015
That's absolutely correct. Nowhere does Stevens indicate they're thinking about a rate increase, rather its more a case of them seeing no need to talk the AUD down as the markets are doing that for them - and the Fed raising rates will only help ...
Statement by Glenn Stevens, Governor: Monetary Policy Decision
- slipshod commented Aug 3, 2015
Interesting, no hint at all of an easing bias anymore. He's basically saying that while things could be better, the economy's slowly picking up and the AUD is taking care of itself - he didn't even jawbone it down like he usually does.

Heh, maybe they're just trying to get the yen a bit weaker so they can fill some last short orders before letting it run, who knows. Trading news is a one-way road to insanity.
Amari: Kuroda's comments might be distorted from what he meant
- slipshod commented Jun 10, 2015
That guy is definitely not a scalper. However, I am & trade successfully without stop losses, and using hedging to avoid realizing a loss unless its absolutely unavoidable. There's definitely wisdom in what this guy says.
How to Handle Drawdowns and What They Truly Indicate
- slipshod commented Jun 10, 2015
Actually that's not what he's saying. He repeatedly warns against "pulling the escape hatch", by which he means exiting losing trades. Seems to me he fights to keep them going & carries the paper loss provided the technical reasons for entering the ...

Metaquotes have seriously lost the plot. Helloooo cTrader!
Metaquotes is blocking myfxbook and many VPS traders

For manual trading cTrader is far superior to MT4, not least because it only works with true ECN brokers. There's no way for a market maker to trade against you then screw with the price feed or play games with slippage and spreads to hit your ...

Oh, my bad, I must have imagined creating that IC Markets cTrader demo last month, and using it every day since. Let me check ... Hmm, the icon's still there, it still opens and its definitely cTrader and IC Markets. Well, if you say it doesn't ...

Any advances on the import of data for backtesting purposes? I'd like to be able to go back 10 years using my own M1 data, and to be able to create custom symbols using my own datasets. Are there any plans to allow this to happen? The lack of ...
cAlgo - Automated trading platform, your opinion needed

If you're going to try and use fundamentals to explain a 15 minute price drop, you'll have to also question why those same fundies didn't stop USDJPY rising from 78 to 80+ over the past couple of weeks.
BoJ expands the asset purchase fund to 66 trillion Yen
- slipshod commented Oct 30, 2012
Thats what I was thinking, especially as it started to drop before the news was released. Big money pushing it down to remove weak longs, get the price cheaper, get people in short, then they can push it up without resistance. Not saying that's ...

Took me all week to recover from Monday's bad trades, but finally closed out with a profit thanks to some really strong trending over the last couple of days. Haven't found much to post an analysis of, other than noting the typical spike down to ...

Well done! I lost money on Monday, my advice to take a day off trading was to myself in retrospect

- slipshod replied Sep 11, 2012
Nico, that was a tough day to trade, being as it was a Monday following a Friday which saw substantial price movements. Some sort of consolidation/retrace was likely, but the market didn't want to move with any conviction - which to me said that ...
