Forex changed forever!

You seems to not have really understood what happened last week. The magnitude of the event, just imagine the stock market (not a particular stock, but the whole stock market index) fall of 50% in a minute, unimaginable isn't it? Even the worst ...

Call for Regulations regarding Liquidity Providers

Of course, every regulation is surely not good, i see americans had the 50x leverage cap, the fifo rule, the anti-hedge rule, the anti credi-card funding rule, now probably they will ask for a 5x max leverage rule, or for make retail fx trading ...

Call for Regulations regarding Liquidity Providers

You need a third cup of coffee! But i think the idea of some sort of exam is right, but simply a set of let's say 50 multiple choice/answers questions regarding the market structure and knowledge, if somebody don't have any market knowledge, just ...

Call for Regulations regarding Liquidity Providers

After reading all this thread, i think everything really worked smoothly, it is clear that there are so many retail so called "traders" that have no knowledge of the market at all, have no idea what they are doing, and the market cut them off. All ...

Call for Regulations regarding Liquidity Providers

Of course there will be a deal, fxcm may have a 200mln hole, but that means nothing. It is still the biggest retail broker, with a great infrastructure, many offices, and the biggest user base in the retail brokers world, in other words it is a ...

Trading with the duck (major currency pairs)

Just spotted this setup on cable, weak demand in the past few sessions, suggest we can as well make a visit to the supply area. A 35pips trade.

Trading with the duck (major currency pairs)

Ok, my apologies for the first trading idea (post above!) of sell the eurusd at what was looking like a trendline break, price did indeed found support soon later and break the resistance trendline, making a huge jump on the upside! Selling low, ...

Trading with the duck (major currency pairs)

Talks about accumulation in progress right now on the eur. Yes, big funds and banks are selling slowly, avoiding to bring price down in the process. They will bring down after their selling-accumulation-process is finished. It's a wazi, it's a woozie

Fugazi - Order Flow hot data
