  A the heart of my trading are two things:  First that news and fundamentals are already discounted into price action and second, that my entries must be dictated by market cycles.  After all, I am a chartist. Chartists believe that news and fundamentals are already baked into the cake. I first read about market cycles [...]

  The dollar seems to be the darling of the funding world.

  I’m really delighted to participate in the new StockTwitsFX blog.

  Today we saw investors retreat to the safety of the dollar as Wednesday’s FOMC news took hold.  There appears to be little appetite for risk in an environment of less quantitative easing.  See post from @inegoveritas, How I will trade the FOMC http://bit.ly/zaMjB.  The possibility of an empty governmental punch bowl rattled many investors going [...]

  I think the most challenging part of being a forex trader is the 24 hour market.  Sure it’s great to have 24 access, but anyone who says that all 24 hours trade the same is lying, clueless, or trying to sell you somethin’! Most of us pick our trading time based on the market’s open [...]
