Still smarting from the wacking I took on messing about with the yen pairs in Nov.

Gees you guys seem to be self inflicting a lot of pain recently.

On the back off a large bearish engulfing bar and another smaller on on the 1 hour chart....now ill wait and see if this thing is gonna B-slap me later on lol

Don't be embarrassed, simply do what Soros does when circumstances change and change your mind. Easy to say but many find it difficult to overcome their ego and admit things have changed

I may get around to trying currencies later in the year but am sticking with the S&P 500 for the meantime.

good luck

I don't know which brokers you are using but this may be of interest. The spreads do differ considerably (*3), so if you are scalping then have a look at this forex forum league table.

lol, a few losers and we are worthy of critique. People need to get real,ive called a couple of losers this year,as have others.What do you want a thread where everyone calls winners? since ive been on this thread I dont think Ive called more than 5 losers on the trot,and also had many big winning runs. I spent a long time where Id think I was crap at trading after a few losers and look for a new method or grail,now I dont care one bit,sooner or later I will get ahead. Just a shame that a few losers by the regular posters and the thread deserts. If i genuinely wanted to learn,I would definitely want to see how traders deal woth loses etc.

Oh, I reckon you have a healthy readership, flash And it's refreshing to see warts and all trading rather than the Mills & Boone fiction variety.
