Ivan's Trade Thread, part II

Quote from davidmaria1:

Saw your post on CMC.
Not available stateside.
Even if trails were available, it wouldn't stop the spikes:(
Oh well, the devil you know,,,etc.

Yep, they pulled out of the biggest market in the world, strange move but apparently something to do with the new NFA capital requirements. They don't have t/stops either :(

Hey, have you noticed any filled orders changing later in the trades tab? I could have sworn I sold @17 and when I looked a few minutes later it said 13 :confused:

.....oooh, ADP worse than expected
 
If the adp had been released yesterday, the election margin would have been much larger.
Not sure what you mean in the trades tab?
I monitor open positions and open orders on those tabs. Of course I have had only 1 position open at a time.

Odd market reaction, the dollar gained, lol

Yes, in the Trades tab it shows the price that a trade was filled, I swear that price changes sometimes!

Guess I need to cut down on the caffeine and weed!

Funny you should mention weed. Here in Massachusetts, last nights vote included a measure to reduce marijuana possession under, I believe, 1 ounce, to a civil rather than felonious charge.
It passed by a wide margin. I voted for it. I don't indulge anymore, but I can't see the harm in it. There are worse. Nobody knocks on doors at 4 a.m. looking for more weed!
 
Hi rsikit

It's conversion of your profit/loss into your account currency, they're not ripping you off, but brokers like Oanda do it automatically when the trade is closed.

What kind of rates are you getting for the conversion, does it tell you?



Thanks for that Cable, I am going to find out what the rates are. I would rather them do it and take it each trade.

I used them a while ago but couldn't get along with their buggy FX Trader platform but they may have sorted that out by now. Other than that they seem to be ok, check out the reviews.

Thanks Cable.
I'll give it a try.
 
The ECB is expected to cut their rate on Tuesday morning. Obvious volatility is expected at the release, but, like the prime rate here in the US, how much movement is already "priced in"?
