a beginner's attempt at the pairs

  1. Man ~constrarian stratgy on EurUsd (long) and made a nice profit and it's going through a correction again. BUT I did not short USdYen because I find shorting on reversal quite risky because of spikes at times...maybe I still need to gain more experience

  7. Anyway, oh, my good news, I know how to avoid spikes when trading on bear reversal now!
    By forming long-short positions with highly correlated currency pairs.
    In my case yesterday, they were USDJPY and EURUSD.
    I have just reviewed their divergent/convergent pattern.
    I am confident using constrarian strategy for long positions but wasn't with short positions, but now I know how to do better, sweet :)

    This is why I participate in real trading threads.
    You discover something new while helping and discussing with others :)
