Thoughts to help you trade forex consistently
I know that there is no such thing as “GROUNDHOG WEEK”, but that is what it feels like. I know that I was around for the week but not a huge amount seems to have happened, if anything did happen, it may be age, but I do not appear to have remembered … [Continue reading]
I am struggling to define the current FX market other than to use words such as trapped, difficult, rangebound, painful and f**ked up. One of the aspects to FX trading, in fact trading in general that is almost totally ignored is TRADING … [Continue reading]
One month down and eleven to go. Never in a month of Sundays would I have predicted 2020 to kick off the way that it has. One would have thought TRADE WARS, TRUMP IMPEACHMENT, IRAN, NORTH KOREA or BREXIT would have been the geopolitical events to … [Continue reading]
So, here we go again, a very, very interesting week in FX. Volatility is starting to emerge once again, not on the back of the DAVOS 2020 JUNKET but on a World Health concern emanating from the city of Wuhan, CHINA. Following SARS (Severe Acute … [Continue reading]
In late November I had an aborted DRIVE THRU blog written and ready to go called “MANAGING THE FOREX JIGSAW”. It was another way of linking all in the inter-market correlations together. It was derived from my thoughts that the market was too … [Continue reading]

My final blog of 2019, an ideal occasion to reflect on the trading year, maybe for some but I think that I will save those thoughts for my December “WEEKLY FX PREMIUM” performance blog, which I will complete and post sometime between Christmas and … [Continue reading]
