    They have those already. They're called savings accounts.

    Ever push the wrong button?

    Just the other night, actually. As many others have mentioned, I doubled up instead of closing the position. I've done that a few times before, as well as taking the wrong position on entry. Thankfully I realize it fast and it's never costs me much (knock on wood). Mistakes happen - all...

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Indeed, I can see it (and probably should have 40 mins ago as well). I still think it's pretty ballsy to enter a technical play prior to a news announcement. I wouldn't have, had I known. Then again that's probably why you're better than me. :p Well played though. (Were I not at a...

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    If you don't mind me asking, how did you play such a quick move? Were you expecting certain numbers in the news? Or did you you catch it after the move and ride it back to more rational price land?

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Yea, that's what I was figuring. 0.8810 was actually where I had my target line for the daily. I was just looking to play a little scalp on the 15 min. I was actually just about to take profit before the floor fell out.

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Perfect. Thank you. Glad to have gotten out for nearly even. I'll never make that mistake again (hopefully).

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Most certainly. That was never an issue with Forex.com. The news feed on that platform was great (to bad the platform itself sucked). They had constant updates of news release times. Now I'm with FXCM and there's absolutely jack squat for news alerts. (yes yes, bucket shop madness, I know)

    There you go. Damn news. What do you use for a news feed during the Asian session?

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Got out for -0.7. Like a dumb shit I wasn't paying attention and the order was on buy instead of sell and I opened two more positions. Whatever, a 0.7 loss is better than a 70 loss. Yet another example of why I don't use stop losses.

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Yea, I'm watching now. I went balls to the wall and averaged down at 0.8994. Coming back up now... Debating a dump for break-even, I don't wanna play if this is what the action is like tonight.

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Yea I don't mind donating to the Goldman bonuses; I just want to know if Benny announced a halt of the money crank or something. I've seen quick drops, but 70 pips in the single tick is a little ridiculous.

    Massive down spike in AUD/USD wtf?

    Did anyone else just (7:30 EST) see the instant 70 pip drop in the AUD/USD? wtf just happened? I thought data feed error, but we're still hovering down 40 pips? wtf... By instant, I mean INSTANT. I'm not saying it went down quickly. I'm saying I'm watching my long... "yay... it's going...

    sychost.exe

    sVchost.exe is not a virus. It's a generic titled windows background service that could be doing any number of tasks. It's normal to show multiple svchost.exe's running. Don't worry about it.

    Market down? Blame us short sellers!

    Yes. This market is only supposed to go up. Cramer told me so.

    Cash for Clunkers: Taxpayers Paid $24,000 per Vehicle Sold

    The only thing more full of shit than the government itself is Edmunds. As a car nut myself, I can tell you from experience: disregard everything they say and go look for a better source.
