Dude, I'm not on their payroll. But I have several accounts with several brokers and can say when one is a scam. Oanda is not. Yes, they have disconnect problems at the moment. And yes they are a market maker. But this isn't something new. I'm ...

HAHA, now that's funny as he predicted something like <1.17 a few weeks before.

Definitely NOT true.

LOL, you're damn right, couldn't say it better.

The BOJ is THE force. They have brutal power but are very clever too. They have ultra deep pockets supported by a huge surplus and can and will halt the slide of the Yen. Of course they play a game here and there to trap as many Yen buyers as ...

Due to make it easier for me, I'll use twitter to post my entries (if I find the time to do it): url

Closed my silver short

Closed my EUR/USD short grid and created a new long grid starting at 1.39

Closed my 2 remaining EUR/USD longs and switched to a short grid down to 1.38 where I'll establish my long grid again.

Short Silver with 20 units at 23.2560

All 100 unit orders are buy stops. If they deviate a bit it's due to slippage. The 1k orders are done manually. I just buy here and there if I see a good opportunity. Like my 5k buy limit at 81.50 which was filled tonight. So my 25 tp grids are just ...

USD/JPY took a dive this morning and I got a fill at 81.50 with a 5k limit buy order. Now let's see if that was the bottom or not. I'll buy more lower.

I tend to disagree. The SNB is a joke compared to the power of the BOJ and the BOJ will win this fight, I have no doubts. They'll just buy here and there for a push up of 100-400 pips and just sell their stuff again when the USD/JPY is above 90/100 ...

EURUSD

Thanks. Yes, everything's fine so far. But I will reduce my manual entries a bit to let it be more "automated". Especially the USD/JPY is now at levels where one could scale in longs all the way down to 80.00 with an incredible risk/reward ratio. ...

I'm sorry, missed that one. No. I never place buy limits below the price (if I expect an upmove) but only above the current price. So I won't place a buy limit at 83.40 then. I would place a buy stop at 83.40 again if the USD/JPY goes below that ...

I've put in a larger USD/JPY long here at 81.80. What a gift...
