  3. Yeah, it's not a scalping field today, methinks.

  4. *yawn*

    I think we've been spoiled with all this excitement lately, that when we get a "normal" day, we're now all bummed out.

  6. Good luck, mate. Though it'll probably be another 40 minutes before something gets going (US open). Might be a good move, too, as lots of take profits are bound to happen (end of the month).

  9. I am a little discouraged of trading again, not my cup of tea right now. It seems there are more "spoofing patterns" repeating themselves in the EuroFX book. Especially the more prevailent "mushrooming" of size. That makes scalping a lot worse.

    Perhaps it is time to get more serious with positions, or take an early holiday.

    Anyone else noticed anything other than the thin markets ? I guess I should have a EBS spot platform ... :)

  10. Yes, I noticed the increase in size too. The book's getting "thick". I was watching the market pre US open and there were very strange reversals in the book. I'm plotting Tradestation spot FX but it's a couple of seconds behind. So I wasn't sure if the spot market were jerky or the book was getting wild.
