You see good news and market interprets as a bad thing.

Market has clearly anticipated the good news month ago.

Yes, probably the news was already priced in.

How did your EA do? Price went one way straight, it must be a good thing. To bad the news was on NY close, many brokers pause trading for a few seconds to calculate swaps? Did you had any trouble?

Humm I don't know... Straddling didn't work! But my MT4 wasn't closed and price were refreshing. (I will ask support about this)

Britain GDP news is about to come out.

Seems a good opportunity for short EURGBP.

I'm long EURGBP:


Now 0.7930 is the resistance. Could be an entry for short indeed.



Ps: MK would be jaleous about this beautiful Pip Drawdown

We owe too much to MK for teaching us pip-drawdown.

That's the MK effect...

Yes we see on the chart that 0.7930 was clearly the resistance... I should have reversed my trade there... But now I will keep my long in case it finally breaks higher as the triangle is really narrow.

Todays cad news.

Area 1.0665 – 1.0680 is good support for long position. If market retraces in three waves, I will look to buy.

I would be worried regarding uptrend if market goes so low for pullback.

USCAD haven't crossed the 1.0700 area... and now is pushing higher

Yep, I did not have a fill on the trade. Currently no orders on the pair.

EUR / USD rose on a consolidated basis before the preliminary data from the Eurozone PMI for July.
The price remained slightly below the minimum in February 1.3475 (R1) and the Eurozone PMIs, which will come out later in the day, with a forecast of a modest decline.
This could cause the bears to gain strength and the pair drove them down further, perhaps to the support zone of 1.3400 (S1), marked by the low of November 21. While the EUR / USD remains below both moving averages and key 1.3500 resistance (R2), predict a negative short-term picture. On the daily chart, the moving average 50 days is still playing to 200 days and a bearish in the near future will increase the negative outlook of the pair.

Interesting discussion, even if more than two years old: nobody is still straddling Fx news?

Straddling isn't possible due to tricky cheat brokers telling you bs that liquidity provider is low at news time so they can justify Huge spread like 30 to 40 pips! I'm not even talking about slippage. So impossible with rubbish broker for little traders like us.

However I trade the news with EA.

I had the suspect that difficulties were too many, that's why the topic died down: but is it really so impossible to find a good and honest broker? No one such Alpari Pro, Tallinex, Darwinex, Thickmill, LMAX, GDMFX, Vipro Markets, JFD Brokers, etc?

I am sorry but this strange person [William (Willy_test_fx)] received clean but incontrovertible post from me (https://www.myfxbook.com/reviews/brokers/lowcost-forex/995865,5) and now he is without arguments, so started stalking: he was already reported.

Life is beautiful because we are not the same.
