COMMENTARY: Welcome to "Golden Arches". This is a test. Please stay tuned for the new thread 02/13/07.

I wanted to improve avg. trade price and increase the carry over the weekend, with this positive differential and the favorable Daily CR. The trade is scheduled at a "get out" target of 1 pip. Next week a Hedge, will be considered if the trade remains open, to get the time needed for the magnetic affect that only a "golden arch", may bring..

 
re: cr indicator
Hey guys
Attached is the revised cr indicator (cr_v1d) as previously discussed. Maybe in future we could keep the indicator filename constant and change only the contents+header...just a thought.

For my own risk management planning, I will compile some stats on each pair to determine what percentage of time do prices stay inside the inner yellow channel (-38.2 to +38.2).

Cheers from Melbourne, Australia

This weekend trade served many purposes. First, it introduces the beginning to a partial hedge to the Long NZD/USD. Second, it had a lower band signal in the 4 hr CR in the correct direction (it has a recent history of "band respect"). Thirdly, it has a positive interest differential for some weekend income. I am nearing my 10:1 leverage max and start to get uncomfortable at anything above it, but I can go above it on average in's, next week...we shall see.
 
Quote from fifo:

yeah, I had a DEMO short on EURAUD and a DEMO long AUDJPY. Just learning the ins and outs and language of Fx trading. Best way to do it is jump in. MT4 is really nice and if I could get a reputable broker attached to MT4, I'm in.


Most MT4 brokers are really bad. The best I've seen if you are wanting to execute trades through MT4 is www.UGMFX.com

Good Luck everyone!


Edit: I beleive they are registed with NFA and CFTC, and their swap/rollover is about as fair as I have seen in the retail area.

I have attached a screen shot of their rollover rates for today.
