You buy or sell into a trade and if it immediately goes for you, its usually about 5-10 pips over a few minutes. If it goes against you, its always 20+ pips over a few minutes. Also, i dont know if its my platform or what, but whenever I am about to sell, as soon as I put my mouse over the...

We just cant win! LOL

The Dow is down over 30% YTD as of this writing. Pretty bad if you used all the gains from selling your house and put it into the stock market this time last year.

Just closed the trade at 100.49. By my calculations...you are down 3500 in that trade now? All fun aside, If i were you and if that account is real, that means you most likely just started trading a few days ago since you had an even 50k on oct 1 and I would take 100k out now so no matter...

Im on the opposite side of your yen trade. Looks like im picking off some of your winnings right now :D

hmm...let do the math here. You want to day trade with 500 bucks in your scottrade account. At scottrade it costs 7 bucks to buy and 7 bucks to sell. That means if you buy a stock with your whole 500 bucks and it goes up 3% in one day, then your profit for that after commissions for that...

I've been to a few different sites and noticed that there are huge differences in what their quotes are. For instance GBP/USD One site says 1.7655, another 1.7718, and yet another 1.7750! I mean thats a 95 pip difference between the first and the last one. Yahoo was the one quoting 1.7718...

I opened a mini account with Forex.com, but after reading some other websites now, i think i may be getting ripped off. Only USD/JPY has a low pip spread with them (usually around 3 pips, but sometimes about 2.5 pips if im REALLY lucky) But with other spreads, like USD/CAD there are 8 pip...

The thing about hunch trades is that you do so well on them, then you are trying to do them all the time which will eventually kick your ass.

what time are they voting. I dont want to be AFK with my currencies if it goes bad.

Anyone know what time they are doing it?

So I finally developed some good habits that make me money. The good habits 1. Not overleveraging myself 2. Going with the trend The bad habits 1. exiting a trade too early 2. Always wanting to be in a trade which forces my mind to try to find patterns where there are none (this...

Meh....got a little tired as its getting late. Closed out at 105.79 so i got about 47 pips on that trade. I still think its going lower especially now its on that steep downward trend, but I dont feel like watching the monitor.

I just got that message on my news. Anyone else believe this? I was thinking they would raise rates or at least keep them the same...

And we are going to keep voting on this thing over and over and over until you finally give us our 700 billion! I dont care how many times we have to change the name or the fine print, we will wear you down until we get it! -The Senate http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/financial_meltdown

I would hold off for a few months on exchanging it. I think USD/CAD will head to 1.10 pretty soon...unless of course that 700 billion thing passes.

Or you could say that america was discovered in 1492. Then that equals 516 years....looks like this party is running on borrowed time.

Rome had colonies all over the world America has military bases all over the world Rome had the best & most extensive road system in the world America has the best & most extensive roads in the world Rome was famous for their gluttonous desire and expenditure of, not only food, but also...

I still see a lot of foolish people still go out and get 29.9% credit cards and max them out paying the min. payment every month

Seems a little suspicious does their track record. Shows all those pips they made, but if you look at the dates, there are periods where there are no entries for 3 or 4 days. I wonder what happened during those days. If you are pulling 50-200 pips 85% of the time and the 15% you lose is...
