Tuesday

still watching for retrace on most of the GBP crosses, filling the gap is taking longer then expected,
by wed retrace should be completed, and then i will be looking to short ,
CAD-JPY AUD-JPY looks good for a long position,
dollars are being bought so far,
but that could change by the end of this week,or early next week,
good luck everyone

Bloggin so boring

as if trading its not hard enough ,we must blog to get extra points.so time consuming
as if we dont have real jobs to go to,
or family to take care of.
or lives to live.
and real blogging should come from the heart, when we really have something to share, but to do it every day just to get points
it kind defeat the all purpose of the trading contest,which should be about the best ROI(return on investment) at the end of the month period.regardless if you have being with dukas one month or five ye…

I'am not very good in math.anyone please?

In order to maintain the balance between the increasing prize fund and the improving trading conditions Dukascopy has taken the decision to increase the minimum turnover requirements for withdrawing the prize funds to 1.5 million USD for every 100 USD won in the contests.
Changes will be effective for new contest periods.
Definition of 'Standard Lot'
The equivalent to 100,000 units of the quote currency in a forex trade. A standard lot is similar to trade size. It is one of the three commonly known lot sizes; the other two are mini-lot and micro-lot.
Investopedia explains 'Standard Lot'
A standard lot represents 100,000 units of any currency, whereas a mini-lot represents 10,000 and a micro-lot represents 1,000 units of any currency. A one-pip movement for a standard lot corresponds with a $10 change.
For example, if you wish to buy 100,000 U.S. dollars, then you are buying a standard lot with 100,000 units as your trade size.

let's do some math,
1.5 mil, for every 100 dollars won
15 mil for every 1000 dollars won
150 mil for every 10.000 dollars won
how many standard lots that comes out to be? anyone?
one standard lot 100 thous…

An organism in which is in constant conflict

first of all I want to thank all of the people that have,and are supported of me in fundamental contest.
I do try to reciprocate as much as possible but sometimes due to bugs on this site,and lack of time on my side ,Iam not able to do so as much as i would like,,
second ,I'am sad how conflicts around the world are popping up a lot faster then are resolved,
this remind me of the late Carl Sagan quote,
THAT HUMANS LIVE IN A ORGANISM ,AND A ORGANISM IN WHICH IS IN CONSTANT CONFLICT WITH IT SELF IS…

Weekly

GBP-JPY weekly it has been in a nice harmonic up trend since nov/2012, simple moving averages(30/50.100) lookin more like trend lines, very smooth and all pointing to the up side
the 30 SMA as been a good strong support
however looking at the daily (top)chart the MACD has crossed, histogram show negative.it could be the beginning of down trend or just a deep retrace to 167.00,,or the 50 day SMA on the weekly chart

EUR/GBP divergence

the EUR/GBP on a daily chart (middle )nice harmonic down trend ,although i feel the rest of this week it will be spent on a retrace,next week we will see if it is ready to continue the down trend.
the only thing i dont like is the divergence spotted on the 4hr chart.,(top)this maybe a sign that it is loosing steam ,and it won't be on a down trend for much longer,
-there was a nice deep retrace on this pair,(GBP/JPY/4hr) now it looks like it is going to the up side,its all depend how the news w…
