Got my 2% for today (35pips), but boy was it tedious...

Waiting for the Current Account figs: expectation: -222bln (meaning US imported more than it exported)

bigger diff, say -230: bad for dollar, go long pound
smaller diff, say -210: good for dollor go short pound

 

[marmoset]

Narrowed to -208, short at 19 and 11

 

[marmoset]

dang 19 got timed out, 13 it is

Another wet firecracker... now looking to get out at b/e

This market is so frustrating today. Just doesn't seem to want to move anywhere. Short at 25. Last trade of the day....really cheesed off!

 

[dc2000]

easy money IMO

 

[Offshore Trader]

What DC, the range this morning? It should have been just had my limit orders in the wrong place

 

[marmoset]

out at 25: -14 -16: 35-30: +5

Oh well, the market giveth, and the market taketh away.

You are right. I just got greedy and ended up making nothing. I had expected a test of the figure.
Anyway, good weekend to you all......Geoff

Good Evening Fellow Traders...
Have been off for a week but I can see all of you have been pretty busy..... :cheesy:

My thoughts for The range between now and big ben are as follows:
Currently@ 1.8506
I am expecting a dip to 1.8480 and a max rise to 1.8550... so the range is 70 pips Good enough...

They order I am looking at are as follows

Buy order @ 1.8475 and stop @ 1.8445 and Limit 1@ 1.8495 Limit 2@ 1.8515 L,imit 3@ 1.8535

Sell order am not to ceartain at this point as I a bit bullish @ this time for this range..
Best of luck
Happy Trading
Rav

first call of the week: short 08

 

[marmoset]

Long at 37 (37+4), limit 52 (EUR bounce off 2600)

Shouldn't have taken my limit so tight on the short 08, but what the hey: +10

 

[marmoset]

And out at 52: +15 +10: +25

 

[marmoset]

short at 47 (crossing fingers that this turns into a Big Ben, though rare they are on a Monday, especially after Tokyo's steep drop and no real news on the horizon this week).

 

[marmoset]

Then again, a bit early for Big Ben, so hedged by a long at 53 (49+4), looking for a play both ways.
