Trading NZD M3 Money Supply

The suspense is killing me... When do we get the numbers? =) Anyone thinking of NZD+ result? I was looking at the last current accounts and trade balance for clues, i'd rather go short seeing how bad these indicators came out a few days ago. ...

Trading NZD M3 Money Supply

But not with IBFX. IBFX has implemented something that kills off straddlers. 1) they widen the spread which makes your positions auto close upon entry 2) they freeze the price 3) therefore, they have the option to either SLIP you or tell you that ...

Trading NZD M3 Money Supply

I have the same LONG USD sentiment for the day. Call it SYMPATHY. I personally feel that USD had been in the downs far too long and traders are taking a bullish stance towards it. Seeing that New Home Sales is not a "fast" 1st minute mover (and ...

Trading the US Durable's and New Home Sales

Trading the US Durable's and New Home Sales

@Darkstar, I am not "shilling" FXCM to anyone. The last post clearly answered the question asked by NewstraderFX: " Or, do you have a source to get the charts from?". My answer was direct. What must I have answered? "Hey newstraderfx, I got it from ...

Trading the US Durable's and New Home Sales

I use FXCM to get those charts. Their charts on demo accounts are just as accurate as their "live accounts".

Trading the US Durable's and New Home Sales

NZ has high inflation, yet no rate hike? They must be taking ecnomic slowdown (Trade Balance) heavier than inflation. Its 0.6611 now, will wait for it to hit 0.6630 (pivot point) to sell.

NZD/USD drops on cullen statements

History shows that Durable Goods retraces several minutes after release. This implies that it is a minor news that quickly fade away. I'd look at Durable Goods as a "confirmation" indicator whether US economy is crashing hard or landing softly. If ...
