Can you answer the question? If these two positions are roughly neutral-notional... you’re short EUR/CHF here. Do you know what you’re doing?


Unless the currencies I am trading are highly correlated (positively or negatively), I trade each signal separately.

I have no trading signal on EUR/CHF so no trade.
 
Bro, you shorted EUR/CAD. Then you went short CAD/CHF. Now you're short EUR/CHF via triangular arb. Your position is short EUR/CHF. You want CAD exposure but you just netted it out.
 
I am not daytrading.

This clarifies it a bit. It's been 9 hours in EUR/CAD without a whole lot of movement after your signal. Are you trading the daily bars?

Stock index futures are moving great intraday. Highly recommend!
 
So what?



I do NOT have a trading signal on EUR/CHF.


THEN WHY ARE YOU SHORT EUR/CHF?

You clearly don't know what you're doing. You are short EUR/CHF if these lots are similar in size. I can't believe you trade FX and don't understand synthetics.
 
You are short EUR/CHF

Yes, but again, so what?

Can you answer that simple question without your usual sarcasm and your "I am better than you" childish attitude?

I can't believe you trade FX and don't understand synthetics.

Yeah, right.

Listen, sonny boy, I studied triangular arb in the currency market before you were even born, and I read "Triangular Arbitrage in the Foreign Exchange Market: Inefficiencies, Technology, and Investment Opportunities" more than 20 years ago, among other books.

So don't come in here and try to teach us how triangular arb works.
