morning all.........

my LMAX demo is up and running.......(thanks guys)

Way to go Prior. 10 years and you've got a demo account. Give it another 10 and you might well be trading real money.

Fudge it. It's not real.

Pretend you have. Nobody will know.

trawling thru some pdf's............meanwhile the usd bear has stalled............technically one should sit and wait for next rain south...............if you want to be AGGRESSIVE........get ready to buy

 

[NVP]

usd still falling ...........

 

[NVP]

usd still falling ...........

and falling ....

 

[NVP]

usd still bear.........yen and aussies have been doing ok as buys .Europeans still weak

 

[NVP]

still fooling around at the moment ..........opened a few up to see where the trails and take orders are hitting........always take a while to settle into a new platform

T2win seems a little slow today ...did it just crash ?

 

[NVP]

momentum stalling on usd .........its currently falling to around 38% of the NFP announcement

 

[NVP]

usd still falling..........nearly there on the settings........not a bad set of screens actually on LMAX.........woudf like the open orders window to be more customisable but such is life

[NVP]

couple of Eurozone updates soon then plain sailing

 

[NVP]

trying to set the demo so its roughly £1 a pip on trading......makes it easier all round to follow

 

[NVP]

ok nearly there...........ive tested where the stops fall to be around 4-5 pips and now will grab some faster scalp trades 1-2 pips to see how good the spreads are .........not bad so far ...........

frustrating as that last GU buy only taking a fraction of a pip vs about 5-6 pips ........as at 75

will be ready soon........got to make a couple of agency calls as well

[NVP]

usd is ranging.........still trying to sell it though

[NVP]

N

 

[NVP]

up and down at the moment as I try to sell usd...........need a little more trend here...

 

[NVP]

getting killed as usd ranges ..........frustrating here
