  1. 700 was from previous close, CF; not the intraday move.

    Range between 10am (stocks open after the SIF, at 10) and 12:30 was 511~226, 285 pts in total;

    The win was 190, while the lose was 38, net 152

    The winning trade took 2/3 of the range, the net is about half the range.

    Looking at other pairs sometimes pays dividents, as i said before, and happened again in the last few minutes with the Aussie taking off with momentum, before the other pairs.....

  6. Sure, Intermarket analysis is a very strong tool. I used it with success when traded SIFs (compared ESTX50 and YM to take the trade in either)...

    In FX I also added quotes (not charts, only quotes so far) of other majors and from time to time take a look to compare how they interact with USD.

  7. ATM July 08 put is 682 pts (same size as HSIF), i couldn't value it, but relative to a/c size, this is madness,

    puff.. all gone.. ROTFLMAO


    A larger a/c size, and being able to use all my buying power, then it might be alright to try those long term trades with options (ie, safety net, since SIF profits should be large enough to cover something like that.. ) or it might be easier for me to be good at SIF, and then try spot.

    Yes i know it can be a bit too much, watching the diferent T/F's,
    and also different pairs, or markets.
    I do have a few screens, so i have one of them split in four hourly charts,
    EUR/USD, AUD/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, and minimised, but easy to access, GOLD(XAU), DAX, DJI, SP5OO.
    I find that XAU and oil(which i haven't got) can be very usefull.

  9. Will,

    Yeah, size is pretty serious (so is volatility)... But really I think volatility plays in HSI should be worth trying...

  10. Baron,

    I watch BBG (site or TV) to get an overall world markets picture from time to time several times a day. Think it's a must for having a correct feel of what's going on.
