Yes I would say so Pollux, definitely one of them at this point in time. But... you're pockets can't be too light LCG is a prime of a prime, JP morgan is their prime broker... they have about 12-13 bank lines on there CNX hub, so you're getting ...

Scalper challenge

This is not true, have you traded with LCG and seen the liquidity? If so which platform? CNX, EBS, FXall, Integral? you're telling me IB offers more liquidity? IB also has WAY to high of commissions, and LCG is much lower then 30$/million. Minimum ...

Scalper challenge

No I use Oanda... I don't scalp, don't need the fancy stuff. Sorry to hear about the losses... perhaps you jumped in too early on these trades, but you might have the right idea.

Scalper challenge

with $100 USD?? well your best bet is oanda in that case, especially since they have the variable unit size... this way you can practice what you're doing. It's viking currenex, basically a MM model version of CNX. brokers like PFG and Alpari were ...

Scalper challenge

if you don't have enough for a tier 2 prime broker, I would suggest you look for something with maximum EU<=1 pip and GU <=2 pips including commissions per side, don't scalp on MT4, go for the institutional platforms. Brokers can be negotiated, ...

Scalper challenge

dragan53, 3$ per side is up there with the worst man... that's terrible. If anyone tells you that is good, they have no idea what they're talking about because if they did, they would know that they could be "scalping" with true pricing on better ...

Scalper challenge

well you may have a point there, but MB is one of the worst I have seen, not THE worst, but really bad. I looked up this 'paid for limits' just now... get paid to add liquidity.... nice one MB... still smells like crap to me. I'm glad to hear you ...

Scalper challenge

dude.. MB sucks. 3$ per 100k... do you have any idea how badly you are getting raped?? I bet you don't. Furthermore, scalping in general is IMHO a shit strategy unless you can get some insanely tight pricing, like .4-.6 pip on EU with under 15$ per ...

I for one, believe that they do work together... this may be contrary to others belief's about the structure of the FX market.

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

No problem. Yes I believe you're correct. You see the maturity calendar and they update it through out the day. If you see a large vanilla AND price is near the strike, watch how it behaves... say it's heading up towards one, they might sell as it ...

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

After watching the IFR for awhile now, they talk of large options and what not... If there is a large option at a level and nothing else significant going on, price will naturally be attracted to this level and gyrate around it until it expires or ...

This may have something to do with why EBS is now offering fractional pricing.

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

there are reasons as to why i picked that trade and that pair, but to be honest I do not want to tell everything about it, i'm sure you can understand. I suggest if you find anything that works (and it would seem like you have pretty strong ...

thanks dude.

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

i love NFP. first move is usually the fake but it really depends on what's going on. i don't usually act on the first move as i trade with oanda, but sometimes i do. today i took a nice eur/jpy trade. it's pretty obvious what is going on here in ...

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

You don't need any institutional or futures level 2 order books to rip Spot FX apart.... Think of the metagame like DS said. Market Structure, Stop Hunts, where is the money.... whats going to cause the orders. Some are calling it "liquidity hunts" ...

I think I read that they then changed their target from 1.37 to 1.4 while they were long, then just at the end of last week they closed them out, supposedly before or on that drop to 1.3570. I don't know... not hearing much about "sovereign" bids ...

Look mum no charts!

yes i sold almost the absolute top into the stops and took profit way to quick.... son of a bitch....

I Love the London Open

well since it's been brought out of the dust... this is a pretty smexy trade for me, stickin' to rules and makin' dough... just took this one. 3 pips from the top. image

Smexy Trades

Yes it was stated Trizzle, and check it out, they tried to hold it above until it expired then....
