      I think it makes sense to watch what the big boys are doing, but it could be such a long-range goal that it doesn't have a lot of relevance to us lowly intraday guys.

      Bears had been doing an impressive job for the past couple hours, defending 1.16 despite a bunch of attempts to push through. But now that the bulls have finally gotten their foot in the door a bit, I'm wondering if the Bears aren't just gonna slam ...

      I recently started keeping a journal about my trading, sometimes listing each individual trade and the logic behind it (in real-time and after the fact). And here's what I wrote in part of my summary for the week: "I did several smaller-than-usual ...

      It'll affect it bigly... at least for a couple minutes before and a few minutes after. Then, if the numbers are as predicted, things will probably settle down. But if there's a big miss one way or the other, you'll likely see spikes all over the ...

      Ah, okay... it's just that for me, I can't even imagine looking at a target 300 pips away. Since I try to keep most of my trades really short-term/scalping, even 30 would be a pretty big move for me. If I get 5 to 10 I'm happy.

      Just a guess here, but I imagine msniper might actually be referring to what I call "points" (1/10 of a pip). In other words, the targets he's talking about are actually 30 pips, not 300. Again, I'm just assuming.

      Hey, in an hour and a half there's gonna be big AUD news... so just wondering if there happens to be a big spike one way or the other, is it likely to drag EUR along with it?

      Nope. I opened one more and stayed in for a few minutes, but I'm no longer so sure it's gonna keep dropping. So got out with a teensy weensy "win". Of course it'll most likely eventually drop off a cliff, and I'll be wishing I had been a ...

      I've been short since about 1.1617, but I've done it in an unorthodox way. Instead of just staying with the trade, about every 5 pips I'm like "Okay, that's good enough, it may not go any further," and so I close. Then a few minutes later, after a ...

      Odds that the gap closes sometime in the next few hours? (I know... last time I started predicting stuff like that was back over a year ago when there was an 80-pip gap in EUR/USD that was SURELY gonna close pretty quickly. Guess what?... it's STILL ...
