Yes, it was a very big spike for that pair, at that time. That is what is so strange about it. There does not appear to be any news to account...
It looked like just another EURUSD breakout, but the interesting thing about it was the timing. It happened during the Asian session, which is a...
Good point, and of course, you always short (sell) something to buy (long) something else. No argument there. My reply was intended to compare...
Exactly. That is probably one of the biggest differences between forex and the other markets. Since your positions are always involving a pair,...
I am glad to hear that I am not the only crazy one who likes medium to long term swing/position trades, to capture as much of those huge moves as...
