You might be right! I've got so much literature from them I might have confused myself, but I must say he didn't mention two services. From my understanding (and this may be Chinese whispers syndrome, since he's a real estate development manager, not forex) RBS will give me access to their...

I think in fairness you might be right. My understanding of it from the RBS is that they will act as your market maker. On the other hand, they claim you can make anonymous transactions... lol. Would you believe them? My father lost a lot of money with his bank on forex (was back in the day...

I use Oanda and so far there have been times when I've been stopped out, only for the market to continue in my anticipated direction, and sometimes just keep on going. I've stopped banging my head on the table, because: 1) Sometimes, it does go over and above my stoploss, and wasn't just a...

So that is (one of?) your strategy(ies)? You swing both ways? :D:D

Been so busy haven't really been able to spend any time reading any forums recently. Earlier posts on this thread are quite funny. One thing though, Fxscalper, why would you go long and short in USDJPY at the same time? Even if you came out flat in both, you're paying the spread? Unless...

Hope you've been well. Good stop loss, gave good room to breath, considering the gain you are looking for, and cable rebounding slightly now. Now looks a good time to go long, but need to have a real good look at things, which I don't have the time to do at the moment. GBPJPY looks good at...

Lol @ this thread. Back on topic, BOE meeting tomorrow, most expect repo to stay on hold so I would imagine this is already mostly priced in, it would be devasting for sterling if they cut rates, as this is not really anticipated this time round, earliest expectance is August. Recent UK...

Hi guys, Ivan, here in the UK, it was highly speculated that a rate cut was in order, either this time gone by, or next time, but certainly sometime this year. I haven't been checking out the forums recently due to personal things going on (grandma passed away), but here on the ground in...

Congratulations mate, nice one! (on the fiance) Regards the GBPJPY, I went with a similar trade, closed out earlier though, only made 70 pips or so I think, then went back into a trade later, lost 50 pips or so. Will chat when you get back, but I think we should start a thread on GBPJPY...

Just looked at the charts today, and noticed something like 80 pips drop in what seems like a couple of minutes? Any specific reason for such a quick drop? Any news I missed out on? Cheers

Hello mate, Like I said, I was thinking more on the lines of 200 pips or so, but I think its come back up nearly 100 or so already hasn't it? I'm not in any trades at the moment. Will do some work on it tonight. Was thinking Long GBPJPY, but its gone up too quickly for me to jump in...

Thanks Skalpz, I was thinking of a retrace, but something like 100-200 pips, not much more, and then a drop below 1.2000. I think the Euro is still weak fundamentally. I'm staying out now, all square on all positions. Made another 16 pips on riding the EURUSD wave just that little bit...

Have a good one Ivan, hopefully you won't have set alerts to your mobile to let you know GBPJPY has tanked, lol, only joking :) Did ok today, short at 1.2248 EURUSD, TP at 1.2187 got hit so banked 61 pips. Long GBPJPY at 195.46 and unfortunately fell asleep with tp set at a moderate 47 pip...

Yeh, I told my mate his site would seem a rip off of that site, I pass on your comments... :-p What women is the real thing???? (if I stop posting here for a while, my girl must have looked through my cache and seen this post, and you can guess the rest for yourself) I'm thinking Ivan...

www.russianwives.com??? I think you can pay a deposit with your Amex... lol ;) EURUSD I switched on my laptop, and instead of being 100 odd pips down, I was now only about 4 or 5. Once it dipped under 1.2219 again, my stop loss which had been moved down to protect a profit position...

Ivanovich, Thanks. Most everywhere I read most people like you are staying out of EURUSD. I'm waiting to see if it stalls again. I'm in too deep! Lol. I think it will, and I think Greenspan will give USD some confidence. It wouldn't be the first time I'd be wrong though. And most...

Hello mate, So what's your next move? I went long EUR/JPY at 131.22, but it hit my stop loss 130.80. It looked as though EURJPY was good for a rally to 133 till the end of the week, but even though its recovered to 131.80, I'm relunctant to get back in, simply because of my money...

Good afternoon guys, I was thinking the same thing, I was just about to hit the buy button and I was like whoa back a second matey. Recent trend has been a little down for GBPJPY. On another note, I keep learning and learning. I set a sell order for EURUSD for when it hit 1.2215 and Oanda...

At least your membership was free, I had to pay for it, and these guys don't fall within distance selling rules on refunds...

Funny you should say that, confirming my worst forex fear: "that God is really is trading against me" Everytime I open a trade, it immediately and without exception, has gone against me, even though it looks like the populace of China is stampeding in that direction, it never ever...
