Calling All FX Traders

Recommended Posts

I know we have some experience FX traders around here, and I'd appreciate any feedback on this post in the candlestick corner. I know futures like the back of my hand, but know very little about FX.

 

Take a look, stop by and say hi. ;)

 

I'm just looking for anyone w/ good experience to chime in about the markets, how they operate, what to look for, etc. I do not need or want a critique of the actual idea being discussed as a previous thread has shown the entry technique has merit. But I would like assistance from the standpoint of helping the readers of the CC (I think some just read the CC :o) about how the FX markets work.

 

If need be, we'll create a separate thread but for now we'll keep it together.

I started with a demo FXCM account on 2/21/2009.

It uses VT Trader 2 platform.

 

I like it.
