    Ag trade ideas

    Exited this trade with a 4 ticks gain. Even with the low risk, this trade isn't worth it. Crop conditions are improving for soybeans and the fundamentals are too bearish for soymeal. Even if the max risk is 20 ticks the max profit also is the same...

    Russian ruble

    I needed cash CHF for living expenses. I prefered to liquidate half my rubles because it was one of my biggest in notional( with korunas ). Is that a common figure( 5% rate differential ) among forex traders to decide to unwind a juicy( and risky ) carry trade?
