Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our latest group of orders and I've paused our strategy just in time for ECB Draghi's speech that drove all EUR pairs south. We will remain paused until after the FED meeting tomorrow. These are very difficult times, because currencies are in the middle of a global trade war and rate cut decisions by the central banks in order to avoid a new recession. Keeping our capital or advance in a very slow pace is not the worst thing that can happen.

Thank you very much for your patience!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we are advancing at a steady pace and I hope we will end this month with a positive outcome. We will continue with our normal trading next week.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, this is the 3rd time that we open a new group of orders on Friday and we end up with 10% drawdown, so lesson learned. The market gets crazy for some reason on Fridays and its better to stay out of it. I believe we will recover on the beginning of the new week.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, this is the 3rd time that we open a new group of orders on Friday and we end up with 5% drawdown, so lesson learned. The market gets crazy for some reason on Fridays and its better to stay out of it. I believe we will recover on the beginning of the new week.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we are strugling these past few weeks, making one step forward and one backward. I believe that one reason for this (apart from the unstable market) is that we record losses by closing individual positions at virtual SL level, but we don't do the same for individual profits. So from now on we will lock profits too, by employing a virtual trailing profit function for individual positions and a basket trailing profit for all open positions of the same currency pair. Our universal basket trailing profit for all open positions together will be maintained as before. I will not stop improving our strategy in order to make it steadily profitable in the long term.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our latest group of orders at a profit a few minutes ago. We will pause our trading now, because tomorrow its Friday and the end of the month, so we don't want to get in trouble once again. Also there is the G20 summit in Japan this weekend and the important Trump - Xi meeting on Saturday, so its better to be safe than sorry. We will resume our normal trading on Sunday night.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our first group of orders for this week at a profit a while ago. We will pause our trading now, due to the Reserve Bank of Australia meeting tomorrow morning. We will resume our normal trading right after the RBA interest rate decision.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 4th group of orders for this week at a profit a while ago and I decided to pause our trading for the next 2 days, because tomorrow its a USA holiday (4th of July) and Friday is NFP day. Its better to be safe than sorry. We had a pretty good week with about 6% profit. We will resume our normal trading on Sunday night.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 3rd group of orders for this week at a profit a few hours ago and I decided to pause our trading for the rest of the day, due to the FED's Powell testimony and the Bank of Canada interest rate decision in the afternoon and also the FOMC minutes later tonight. We will resume our normal trading after the FOMC minutes dust settles.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 4th group of orders for this week at an increased profit a few hours ago and I've decided to pause our trading for the rest of the week, because Fridays always have negative surprises for us. We already reached more than 10% profit for this month, so I believe we are doing alright. We will resume our normal trading on Sunday night.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, once in a while we are getting into some 'trouble', due to sudden turns of the market. I am pretty confident that we will recover soon.

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, the market has gone crazy with FED officials playing around with comments and rumors and then retracting them, turning the forex market into a rollercoaster. Our strategy can make healthy profits most of the time, when the market is relatively calm and predictable, but it can't avoid stepbacks when things go out of hand. We will persist in our goals and targets and I strongly believe that we will see better days soon.

Thank you very much for your patience!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we lost much of July's profit in the last 2 days, so I will be making new adjustments from Monday in order to fine tune our strategy once more, to make it more adaptive to sudden market changes. I will decrease the basket perecentage profit in order to close our group orders sooner and avoid long periods of consolidation before we reach a certain profit. Also I will remove the basket profit function for same currency pair orders, because I saw in real action that it limits the profit potential of a specific pair that goes very well. I expect to see better performance from now on.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 3rd group of orders for this week at a profit a few minutes ago. We will pause our trading now because its the important ECB meeting and interest rate decision tomorrow and we won't trade on Friday. We will resume our normal trading on Sunday night. I believe that our strategy works very well on making profits, our 'problem' is to minimize the impact of the sudden trend changes that cause us a 'heavy' drawdown every few weeks. I think that with the last changes our system will work better, but only the future will prove that.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 2nd group of orders for this week at a profit a few minutes ago. We've managed to gain a 42% profit in one day and almost 15% for the month (despite our roller coaster last week), so I've decided to pause our trading here, in order to avoid an entrapement in a new group that will drag us through the very important FED meeting on Wednesday. Its better to be safe than risk a high drawdown once again.We will resume our normal trading on Wednesday night.

I want also to inform you that there is no need to keep your back up funds on a seperate account anymore and you can trade with all your available capital, as long as you are comfortable with a 10-15% maximum working drawdown. After the latest changes in our strategy and the exclusion of the JPY pairs, we are running at a safer pace.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Dear ANT NEST LIGHT subscribers, we've closed our 3rd group of orders for today a few minutes ago, reaching a 2.50% profit for the day. We will pause our trading now, because tonight its the Reserve Bank of Australia meeting and tomorrow its the Reserve Bank of New Zealand interest rate decision. Both events can cause quite an impact on the market, so I prefer to be safe than sorry. We will resume our normal trading on Wednesday morning.

Thank you very much for your attention!
