I'm trailing this thing. I'm going for the big prize :)

I got chipped and chopped little bit on the way down. But overall, I've been doing OK this morning. Been in and out long couple of times. Still long.

50 seems to be holding up OK so far. The pullback volume was relatively lower so I'm expecting at least one more shot upwards.

I think it's (speech) happening now....

It's awfully quite here now. I hope no one is going against this mania.

I'm long from 1.3022, added more at 1.3042. Euro might fly today!Madness!!!

I'm hoping for a volatile day today. Let's see if Greenie's mumblings will stir the $.

It's time for my 90 minute nap :)

First my short got stopped out by one tick around 1.2980s. Then my long got stopped out. Then I got short again, then EURUSD suddenly reversed, I got stubborn and held it until 1.3007. Luckily I went long at 1.3008. I got chopped nice but at least I'm getting some of it back from this upswing.

What do you mean by big reaction? Did the offers/bids jump suddenly while the regular spot was steady? By trading, I meant if you tried to get between the bid/ask in IDEAL?

Do you move funds using IDEAL cash transactions? Do you trade that too or just buy/sell at bid/ask?

10 minute QM chart looks f***ed up!

I'm expecting another 40 tick slide from the 60s down to 20s before close today. This bounce volume was relatively low too. If we reach 20s, I'll probably hold a short position overnight.

One problem with me is that I get extremely bored reading these economic reports and analysis. Also, I believe that conditions and correlations keep on changing. And you never when the big pockets will come in and move the markets. For me, price and volume tell enough story. I think I have just...

Yes, watch out for revenge trading. That mental state is my worst enemy. If I were trading with a target today, I would have gotten out around 1.2990. Now I would be plucking my hair and possibly revenge trading. I tried targets before and they completely screwed me up. I took partial...

I started completely ignoring numbers except of course their release times. I don't even look at the numbers anymore. I believe that "the market" has its agenda and it'll do regardless of what the numbers say. A good example is the last NFP.

I can never figure out a target that works well at the end. Either I'm too early and get out and start revenge trading. Or the target's never touched. As long as I'm not overleveraged and prevent impulsive entries, trailing works best for my mental state.

Philly Fed survey @ 12:00pm EST.

That's a decent conservative money management strategy.

Amazing, crude oil collapses and EurUSD first rallies then pulls back. These 23 tick pullups are making me very nervous. No easy bread for Chinook these days :) Edit: I'm trying to trail this thing and the chart starts looking like the sideview of a porkpine sitting on a downward slope...
