Puh... I've never thought about that. I trade what I see and I use mainly EUR/USD, GBP/USD and EUR/JPY. Regarding your margin, USD/JPY has the lowest margin usage and a nice volatility. Personally I don't like this pair. Regards - Xaron

How to calculate which pair can I trade with the most units?

Try the Oanda calculators: url BTW: Going all in isn't the best choice, even if it's "only" $100. But I'm always glad to meet someone who pays my bills. Regards - Xaron

No, that's not true. Oanda does nothing against scalpers as long as you don't cheat them. Regards - Xaron

5Min Intraday System

Yes, thanks. Currently I use an adaption of this system. I look for the same pattern, but I enter the trade using a stop buy order in an up trend above the last high and go for 4 pips only. The probability for a success is very high. It's more a ...

FED cuts 75 just now!!!

Any results so far?

100$ -->100,000$ (period: 12 months)

Just a question. You use, let's say a hard stop of 30 pips. So do you close your position on the candles close if it's below your 10 pips stop line to wait if there is some kind of false breakout? Regards - Xaron

5Min Intraday System

Let me one thing add: The stop is the main problem for me. Often I get stopped out just to see the trend to be continued. For the cable I use a stop of 20 pips and a tp of 20 pips for now, so just a CRV of 1:1. I even thought about a stop of 40 pips ...

5Min Intraday System

They are all crap as there is no "real" volume in the forex market to display. There is no center, it's an interbank market. The volume you get in Metatrader is just computed with the number of ticks that come in... This has nothing to do with a ...

Question about how to use Volume with Price Action

I use Oanda for that. They have good interest rates (+ interest for your money in the account) and they pay per second. They offer some kind of options, too, but the payout is not sooo good. Regards - Xaron

Carry trade brokers

I've read about it. But you need more than 90% if you use a 200 pip stop and a 10 pip target. Regards - Xaron

Looking for extreme trading systems

I second that. Sometimes in the past it has happened that limit and stop orders didn't work on FxGame. But it always has worked on the real FxTrade. Simply there are no differences, the FxGame platform might have some additional beta features, which ...
