I find that weird, too. Gap close after, news, ok, but that heavy? And now it is not going down?? So no gap close? who has so much money to go against the USD? BOJ, yes, but they concentrate on JPY, - that move on EU and GBP was someone/something ...

- PPI through the roof. Closed 1/2 other short at 1.2528 from 1.2855 and I had -4 pips before so 23 pips + side. Why market is up know I don't know. I saw that quite often last news. First correct direction (GBP/USD down today) and than ...

I wasn't able to close any. So I do now. -4 pips, half is out. 50% I keep. Could rush down after news. I split the risk.

First short now on GBP/USD... 1.2555... cheers. Seems exhausted. Dont expect big vola now. I only annoy the big guys with my short and grab some money from them.

V-Shape GBP/USD. Quite seldom occurance. Fits perfectly into currently VOLA / PA. Not tradable at all (for me). I think long could still work out from here due to open shorts from the morning to cover. Some biggies will use that to push market ...

V-Shape...mostly only seen on holiday move due to less market participants. Very dangerous to short due to lack of longs of the guys who shorted before (mostly uncovered shorts still in play). Just sit on your fingers before short - that is telling ...

My stats say: Sell, sell, sell. -But I don't want to rely on that BOJ guys. So sad but everyone except BOJ stands against that JPY small boy who is (still) protected by her mother BOJ but the bulliyng kids are getting more and more... ok, and some ...

Finally some moving. In the former most volatile pair on forex . I would have sold my scalp (1.2514 avg.) already at 1.2519 but I kept it because I thought market will not move down again anyway BECAUSE OF THAT CRAP VOLA!!! SL for my rest ...

I hope you are wrong... sure, Gold Vola would go up but there will be much less trade oppurtunities on lots of currency pairs which will not compensate the loss of volatility.

May be sound familar to you: I enter 1st small position of retrace at USD/JPY, sometimes a bit more down, I add some. Than it goes up, I sell some. Rest I put on B/E. MArket moves even more up and next day: Hit me B/E. REPEAT. Carry trade is really ...

Numbers showing signs of stagflation: image Consumer pessimism and Inflation expectation is rising -again far over 3% - at least at that number. May be that's the reason why USD vola after news was so low. Means no rate cut in US but recession ...

Question: What the heck is going on with the volatility? over last weeks: EUR/AUD - 30% EUR/CAD - 30% GBP/USD -10% EUR/GBP - non existent vola!! Only exotics currently are ok to trade. I think we never had such a low volatility in overall forex ...

it's unbelievable... I really have to change the broker. Now they are not reachable? Is that a joke?

In general I would recommend to short now because before NFP most times the weak hands get shaked out,- good for a profit of 15-20 pips down. But the problem is: One of the last times this strategy failed also (well, after the numbers eur/usd got ...

Omg... sold last position at 153.70 from 153.06/7. What the heck is going on with USD/JPY. I sold now because carry trading is currently difficult with BOJ in your neck... I had a stop-loss before at 152.50 paid by my winnings earlier - if hit - but ...
