No, Egan aren't THAT respected, (moodys, SP etc are) And also a Downgrade doesn't necessarily mean that USD will depreciate. Last summer They were downgraded by SP i think(?) and that was Dollar bullish (after a whipsaw reaction). This can happen ...

Why would you think that if more people are short it is a sign to go long? The whole 95% of retailers fail myth is rubbish and a lot of retailers are better than the market and in fact (i believe the oanda one is done via monetary value not number ...

Haven't tried due to the fact that OANDA europe doesn't allow he to join at the moment, But I love the concept of Baskets, AS LONG as we can modify them as some baskets (in my view) are overweighted to certain currencies. Or that we can make our own ...

OANDA fxUnity - Anyone tried it?

No had quite a good day, nice weather too. I was only giving fair warning to those long as equities are overextended and ISM's just pushed risk a little further up. EURUSD managed to pull up to the trendline in time for 4 hour close. Still looking ...

Those of you long got lucky today that Equities managed to sustain risk back over the trendline. You may not be so lucky tomorrow. think about reducing position sizes.

I suppose this is like the last week for JPY. Its the end of the financial year so divisions abroad are repatriating their profits back to japan and so the JPY gets bought up, hence the slight fall in USDJPY even in the strong uptrend.

Profiting from contract settlements

EU has broken out of H&S and should target some more gains maybe to supply zone at 1.3315/20 ish. However the crosses provide more opportunities for technical at the moment. url Hope you like my ideas. thanks

Bear in mind $11.1 million is nothing, he probably just wanted to buy something nice for himself. he has at least $400Mn worth of AAPL so it really isn't significant. However on the side of whether its a bubble, it sure looks like techs of 2001.

Apple Bubble?

Still Oanda is then a very good candidate, Duka does have MT4 but via bridge but not too difficult to set up though

This only works for tresuary bonds. When people buy them for safety they need to convert whatever they have (EUR, AUD, JPY or whatever) to USD to buy those bonds, so when the prices go up it means more people are buying and a lot of the time that ...

Why do higher bond prices mean a stronger dollar?
