Same over here
I was thinking to keep it like that and stop till tomorrow - there are all sort of different reports in US in less than an hour.

lol. I was thinking the same thing. Either way, I'm done at least until after the US data is out in about 45 minutes.

I just find it moves better than E/U. It's preference, really, though I wish the spread were better (1.8 compared to 1.2 on E/U).

exit 108.78 +2
slow moving

Wacky,I forgot to ask yesterday, how much are the fees for your daughter to do the uni course,its a very topical subject over here. we have student loans where by they have to pay it back when they start earning. its about £2500 a term, so about 30k for a degree and then they all drive buses

That's what most of the paperwork was for...grants, loans, gov't aid. Per year it's going to cost about $28,000 including housing. It's a big issue here too...lol, drive buses...no different over here.

lol. I sold cable instead or Euro got out for +2.

7 trades 6 winners 1 loser +26 total. rounding the scores to nearest pip. Euro trade hit 5 pip target quickly, if only I had of bought it instead of cable. lol.

 

[wackypete2]

student loans and parent loans are repayable beginning 6 months after schooling ends even if you quit mid term. Doesn't matter if you have no job yet.

My gbp/aud looks like the perfect trade in hindsight. I sold at 1.5022, right at the top and its fallen over 100 pips so far. Sadly It came back and stopped my first trade.
I did have another but for smaller stakes.Im showing it to show how good the r/r can be sometimes if traded right. one good winner can take out 4 losers from such a simple method. It didnt do this for me as I moved my stop back to entry only for it to take it and P*ss off again. Just shows how accurate you can be and still not get the returns. Very frustrating when that happens

university's have been dumbed down, people have got degrees in tourism and other nonsense not worth racking up debt for. if my son wants to study a nonsense subject I will advise him not to go to uni. degree in tourism I mean please.
