Hi all. Lovely NewYear all my fx traders. Now for the first few days of 2011 . a trend will be set for both the stock indexes (read s&p 500) and fx market.Big money went on holiday but still s&p 500 managed to rally for the better half of dec (2010) pullin w/ it commodities currencies.I believe a correction is about to take place on the s&p 500 i use it as my primary guage in trading the dollar). its terribly over-bought and was rising on low volume .Why do i care so much about s&p 500 because its the perfect gauge of where the aud/usd is headed.My favourite pair.
eur/usd will come tumbling down once the dollar start gaining strength.The impending correction will continue for a number of weeks and this shld give a good trend to make allot of money.Even if it remain range bound the bias is downwards.
With the poor forecast of the gbp economy i am short gbp/usd and long usd airs.Cable is forming a very nice head and shoulder formation on daily chart and that shld yeild a healthy amount of pips once its validated and starts going down.
I hope all of you didnt sleep in Dec because aud and nzd really rallied because of the RISK IN ON message given by the successfull Santa clause rally on the s&p 500 this dec 2010.

Happy Trading 2011
Your future depends on your dreams so go to sleep !

@Hisah hope u dint maintain the bullish USDCHF &USDJPY trades for long coz I'm sure you saw the bear moves. Moving into 2011, im sure going long on the pairs will be a good bet. AUDUSD &AUDCAD we watching for bearish signs after crazy bull trends. we say the pairs water down Head & Shoulder formations on the daily charts, im sure many got caught in this.

@Morey what strategy do u use, u seem to have followed the choppy movements nicely and ur strategy looks efficient.

@Vestor yah u can start with 50k bt ensure you use small volumes and a very efficient trading strategy to avoid being wipped out.

@Kasheshe I would say u can start with the EURUSD and the Cable, bt in the later wathch out for some crazy whipsaws, they can easily hit u hard even though u analysed the markets right.

I intend to start trading on a micro account this year and I'm trying to find a good market maker i.e. user-friendly platform,regulated.
Several people have recommended forex.com but their platform doesn't work for me (always unable to log in).Kindly share your experiences as far as this goes

Recommended forex broker :

this is from personal experience (i.e i have an a/c w/ them).I wld recommend easy-forex.com .This guyz are so nice they even call you back !!!!!!!!! when you email them w/ a problem.Very few brokers do this.

try ibfx.com.au ( MAKE SURE ITS THEIR Australia branch). They are just tooooo professional.May be thats why they win awards left,right and center.

and make sure your forex broker SUPPORTS MetaTrader 4 . It will just sweeten your forex trading experience !
Your future depends on your dreams so go to sleep !

I have used FXCM for the last 6 months and find their platform ok. They are UK and US regulated. I like their charts online seminars(Webinars).
