I was considering posting some charts to this thread, but instead of adding more bloat to this thread, I decided to start a new one. I'm simply calling it "RCRT2," as a continuation of this thread. I encourage future would-be posters to this thread to instead join me over there!

Hard to believe its been almost 11 years since we had a great year in this thread.   I think of you guys still.  I wish we could have a reunion week here for any of you who are still trading ... or even if you're not.  Maybe the first or second week of June 2020.  If interested, drop a note here and perhaps an email address if you don't plan on checking back.

No more forex for me - just stocks, ES, and NQ.

As always,

Best Wishes,

Thales

Hi, thalestrader. It's awesome to hear from you! I hope you're doing well.

Please note that I'm not username "humbled" whose thread you were involved with years ago.

I'm worried that the several pages of posts from some relative newcomers to the thread may have prompted old-timers to turn their notifications off, and they may not see your post. Hopefully not!

I don't want to bombard you with questions, but I can't help but ask a few:

- Why no more forex?

- Since the days of this thread, have the markets changed?

- Since the days of this thread, do you still basically trade the same way?

Thanks!

The reason the UJ long looked interesting... It's a cup and handle! 

Nice observation I'm also going to open short position with Hotforex, expect Yen to strengthen against dollar. What's your thoughts about that?

Wow.  Yes.  Hi - hows America?

I'll let Mk let me know when it happens.

Also trade just HSI but keep telling myself I should also trade a variant on your style on fx.

Good to see you're still on the HSI MK!

What happened to the reunion? Did it never happen, or did it happen somewhere else?

There are lots of aspects of Forex to look for before you step into the real world of Forex Trading.

Looks like EURUSD will break parity soon, keep making pips from my short position at Hotforex

Good one, i still remember when we were in our early days we use to buy when we see such cup and handle pattern on charts which never worked out as taught.
