To Short Or Not To Short

Discussion in 'Forex' started by FXsKaLpEr, Sep 13, 2005.

  1. Well, our current EUR/USD band seems to be between 1.2230 and 1.2200.

    I'd say, if you must trade this pair now, that you make your entries along these levels, either short and/or long - TP somewhere in the middle to outer edges.

    current = 1.2216

    The way things look right now,
    it seems that the big rallies are/will-be
    in EUR/GBP, EUR/CHF, and EUR/JPY;
    especially in the last one.

    Read my post again. i didn't say anything about EUR/USD.
    Is that all you are thinking about?

    EUR/USD isn't the "hot" pair right now. I am flat.

    What I am suggesting is:

    long EUR
    long USD
    short GBP
    short CHF
    short JPY

    I only follow those 5 currencies. I leave the choice of pairs to trade in order to do that to you.

    Anyone sees anything else?

    Position rules! I have been building it
    since yesterday, and it keeps going
    up and up in Euro terms.

  7. yes, if done right, position-trading can be an effective method.
