Thursday 10/3/11 Getting a smack from GBPAUD -99

March 11, 2011

It’s been a quiet couple of weeks with not much going on.  Quite a few orders set, but very few triggering.  Here’s one that did trigger…..but I wished it hadn’t! I had a long and short order in for GBPAUD from Sunday evening. I had a bias to the downside but there wasn’t enough evidence […]

EURAUD – Just a nice chart – Part 2 +154

February 23, 2011

Well I do feel a bit foolish for not posting my chart of EURAUD yesterday (see here).  I didn’t expect it to move like it has! My trade triggered about midday yesterday at 1.3622 and has moved nicely north all the way.  After taking a quick look at 8am this morning before I left the […]

Cable Consolidation Breakout +20 pips

October 29, 2010

It’s been a very jumpy morning on the intraday charts. I had a signal to take GForce long this morning and even though I had a view that it might not trigger or if it did trigger then the likelihood of getting 70 pips was slim (with it having to break the big 1.600) I […]

It’s an interesting day in October. The majors did their ADR in the Asia session overnight. Is there anything left for us in London? USDCAD is at parity!! Aussie is pretty much at parity!! Swissie keeps falling as does Yen. We are in new territory – nervous times?? Then up pops GFORCE telling me to […]

Thursday 23rd September – starting back on the intra-day trading

September 23, 2010

Hey there folks, Well today I decided to get back to the desk nice and early and try out some intra-day trades.  I’m not going to deny that it was a shock to the system to be getting up at 0530 after a few months of later starts but it felt good to at last […]

Another Day Another Divergence Trade

September 23, 2010

2 Comments

No trading at all for me yesterday. After the FOMC results, and the massive movements that followed, Wednesdays charts all looked overextended to me and very uninviting. Deciding that there was too much risk out there for me I took myself off for an early gym session at 9 a.m. and never came back to […]

This is my first blog for ages as I’ve been busy moving home and it’s been the school holidays, but now all that is done and I’m back blogging on FOMC Tuesday with a video! I didn’t think there would be much to do today, overnight in Asia was quiet with everyone waiting for this […]

Don’t Be Afraid to re-enter a Trade……

if the setup is valid – even if you’ve just been stopped out. This morning’s trade was the G-Force set play with a short entry on cable at 1.5908 with a 20 pip stop and 60 pip target. I was a little concerned about entering the trade above the massive one and a half but […]

Feedback on our recent Advanced FX Trading Day

June 21, 2010

We recently ran another one of our Advanced FX Trading Days in Central London.  We had a good knowledgable interactive crowd who were able to provide their own views on both trading and the markets in general.  Throw in some good food, banter and a well-earned pint in the pub afterwards and it all made for a […]
