I usually am not even at my desk on the afternoon of NFP day.  I see all the Financial media and Twitter-sphere working themselves into a frenzy over the NFP number and quite frankly I can’t be arsed with it!  I’m not a massive fan of trading NFP – certainly not putting orders in front […]

Hey there traders, Yesterdays video was all about the Monthly Indices and Commodities candles. As promised, todays video is a quick look at some of the FX monthly candles.  Some of them offer up trading opportunities for binary trades for me. Some of them are just giving my an indication to watch them closer over […]

  Hello Traders,   I’ve been busy with work and travelling hence the lack of blog posts and videos. Here’s a trading video update of my positions around GBP, EUR & Yen.  These are all Binary Option Positions which take very little time for me to analyse, put on and manage. They work very well […]

I’m edging my way back into trading after the summer lull. I’ve had two lucky escapes on EURGBP and EURJPY. Whilst my analysis was solid, I’m the first to admit that I got away with these trades. The EURGBP was purely speculative and the EURJPY was saved by some solid analysis and positioning of the […]

I spent most of today at the Shares Magazine Forex Trading Conference presenting on “What I Wish I’d Known When I Started Trading” – I’d been led to believe that 70-80% of the attendees were complete newbies and planned my presentation around that. In the end probably 50% of people had been trading for more […]

I’ve been writing all year about the EURGBP and its constant decline whilst making new lows. Well at the end of this week we had a further point of interest as the currency closed below the psychological number 0.800 for the first time since September 2012. Most of this was due to comments by BoE […]

I wrote a couple of weeks back that the markets and in particular a lot of the FX markets were decidedly lackluster these last 2-3 months.  As usual no sooner had I spoken than things picked up! Yesterday we saw new annual lows in the EURGBP. Check out the chart below:   EURGBP has been […]

Well its been an interesting week for the markets, what with Crimea and big news announcements. I deliver a few educational webinars for a European brokerage ActivTrades and as part of the webinars I go through some of the major charts. I thought I’d share a few of them here with you. AUDUSD Daily I […]

I last wrote about EURGBP a few weeks back (which you can read here) where I talked about the emergence of a descending wedge on the weekly and daily chart of EURGBP. I admitted that I have a particular interest in a declining EURGBP rate as it helps me enormously from a personal level. It would […]

last year was a pretty dull year for trading EURGBP (well by my methods anyway). However it’s a chart I watch closely. As someone who earns in Sterling but who pays in Euro I admit to having a serious interest in the dynamics of this pair. As mentioned last year was dull. After an early […]
