I'm thinking of going the other way, from FX to options, primarily as a way of limiting risk. I was only thinking of normal options and only ever buying puts or calls. I'm more a position trader (medium to long term view). Can I ask what broker you ...

Should I jump over from binary options to forex

Warming to your suggestion. Any suggestions for broker offering options? So far have just done quick search on here and seen some limited discussion here: url

not sure why they need to cut when their unemployment is so low but I'm not sure what criteria RBNZ use for their interest rates as I don't follow it as closely as RBA (who use employment and inflation targets)

was just looking at JPY events on the calendar and there is next BOJ meet mid Sept. Wonder if they will take action then if Yen is still too strong. PS It's not until you set your calendar to JPY events only that you fully realise how little data ...

EUR/JPY

I've thought about it but haven't looked into it enough as yet. Had worried about the expiry side of things but just had quick look and I can get some that don't expire until mid Dec but range of pairs seems more limited (I might just need to look ...

EUR/JPY

I've been slowly building Yen shorts for months (painful I know), predominantly on AUDJPY longs and CADJPY longs. Latter and some NZDJPY longs were profitable and all out on the June bounces, whilst AJ I was only able to significantly reduce my ...

any thoughts on where to now?

It's been 18 months since AU was at 80c. I suspect IF it's going back there it will take more than a few months.

Far from perfect trading but this completed sequence on EurNzd shows that when you get your position sizing correct (something Davit is big advocate of) you can hold trades for a long time and close them in profit. fyi: have stripped away pivots ...

I'm trying to implement trade plotter to give you a better idea of some of my trades (see my previous post with query) but for me the psychology of trading is such that one of the worst things that could happen for me after DD and a significant move ...

Pivot Trading

I'm playing with the colour and width settings to try and get the trade plots to show up better on my chart as it can be hard to see some of my trades given they are longer term and there is a lot of other colours on the chart just from pivots etc. ...

Curious how you managed your trade given it went about 175 pips against you but is now back below your entry.

Pivot Trading

I'm longer term trader than most on here but with position sizing heavily influenced by Davit. I have enough small positions that when in DD like at present on AJ, NJ, CJ (longs) and EN short I use pullbacks to close some positions at open (only the ...

If you are in big DD when price is less than 100 pips above your entry than I suggest you are trading too large a position size for your capital. A look at the daily chart shows that a short where you took it is high probability of being successful ...
