hey wall, i think the spreads are tighter in the FXCM account because it is a MICRO account. i could be wrong, but i think i read somewhere that they spreads would be tighter in that type of account

have a free moment at work here...went short on usd/jpy this morning sold at 92.95 im testing out this new strategy i was reading about where if all the SMA (10d, 20d, 50d, 100d, 200d) align then make a trade 5 days after the initial formation and get out when the formation breaks. ie - if you see the usd/jpy daily charts and plot all those SMA, the 200 will be higher than the 100 which is higher than the 50, etc. this intitiated 5 days ago so i went short this morning. these types of trades last long (maybe 1-2 weeks or greater) but are usually worth a lot of pips. well see what happens

This was a wacky trade, I decided to go against the wild beast and short the lb.aud
The top looked like around 2.885 and I went short, then they ran it hard higher and I added a contract.
Now I have 2 contracts set to cover at 2.284, it touched there but the spread is like 15 pips so no cover yet.
pop, that is one crazy way to trade..buck the bull or bear trend, when all those moving averages are lining up that would mean a confirmation of the trend to me..so thats a contrarian view saying once a moving average lines up it will break down..interesting.

wall, you are right it is a confirmation of the trend or where the trand might be heading. if you look at the daily charts of usd/jpy, the main trend is down since mid august. if you then place all those SMA on the chart, 5 days ago they all line up in sequence with 200day SMA on top and the 10day SMA on bottom indicating a downward trend
if the SMA were to line up in the reverse order with 200day on the bottom that would indicate an uptrend
i sold the pair which is with the main trend on the daily chart. ADX should also be above 20 and trending upwards for this

Just sold my two contracts on lb.aud, went long early and had to leg into the contract with another and sold now to net 1200 bucks.
I am learning that it would be foolish to overleverage on ONE trade or one position/contract since MANY times I have been wrong for a while but averaged into things and ended up doing quite well.
Now turned the 50k funny into 77,500..but like I would trade this freely w ith the cash on the line.
