Best Thread Correlation Trading - Basic Ideas and Strategies

Hey A

I (finally) see 1.5922 hit......but did you ride the storms to get there ? (y)

Yes, no problem. I just didn't watch it! The system got in on the EUR/USD as well at midday - target 1.3760. I can see that might not work on this move up - to give you an idea of my time scale though, my stop is at 1.3569, so it can stay in overnight, although it might reverse if the market does a 3 point turn - and yes I'm talking driving here, not technical indicators!
 
a 40 point fall in Dow has not really dented the tags appetite to fall that much so be aware this may be a brief intermission on tag falls

and just to close this out finally while gbp continues to showboat.....:rolleyes:

can you see here how the G8 is a Zero sum game ?

as GBP went into orbit other currencies must be falling to offset that ballistic GBP progress

And fortunately USD was one of them.....well not actually so lucky if you read my comments as GBP was picking up steam....go back and read how I comment on what I think the Tag is gonna do re falling more if Dow rises again......and it obliged (y)

CAD on the 5mins :(

if you trace the USD alongside the CAD on its journey - do you see how this wasnt much of a trade on USDCAD until near the end when usd turned north ?........thats why i hav'nt been screaming about it much

and smartass yourself if you were trading that GBPCAD move :smart:
