imo anyone playing this Fx game of 'Mind, Money, & Wealth' & expect to be rewarded over time requires more then chart reading or prefect entry indicator skills..
That being said, the directional bias of a 21 period ma moving away from overbrought/sold/consolidation levels is a simple but very effective 'train/trend indicator'.. you Buy on a Rising 21ma, Sell on a Falling 21ma, Snooze if it is flat, & set your initial risk x bars above/below the ma..
The only drawback for this simplistic beauty is that you must work to overcome the common 'Too cheap/expensive' Fx Fear Syndrome, have good money management skills, plus a counter-human trading mind-set to sit & wait for the proper market bias..
The method is applicable for all time frames.. however, while some nimble types may think they could profit by riding the intraday waves with 'reduced risk', its a sure way to cut profits short when the market is moving multi-days/weeks away from some overbrought/sold/consolidation levels..

Subject: How to get onto the moving train?
I have been for a long time puzzled by my inability to get on with a moving train(trend) once it is underway as I constantly have the fear that it may reverse the moment when I get in. I do find the risk/reward ratio to be excellent at reversal points but am at a loss about to how to get into a moving trend.
Any suggestions? Which indicator(s) to use? TIA

looks like a 'last' kick in the can for the euro..

euro @1.2880

van Gecko 11:49 GMT May 30, 2006
its all about opposing camps jockeying for month end bias.. as Fx does not work in a one way street fashion the market can expect counter moves from the other side at certain major levels.. FwIwW..

There is a time for everyone and everything even in the market..Insiders or manipulators almost always move one-step in front of the outsiders,fleecing outsiders in this zero-sum-game..News and government statistics feed the public while the insiders or manipulators almost always move before the release of those news and statistics..In that respect,someone who is not an insider in that market will be far better off just by trading off the charts..Then,even here chart reading ability of insiders and outsider is different..To know one does not know is a wisdom even in market..

Syd 03:09 GMT May 30, 2006
shanghai bc 03:05 I dont doubt you however most analyst that are worth their salt wouldnt buy gold at these prices , we may see an spike higher but for now the Speculators have got the tiger by the tail they are in the buy buy buy mode (speculators) GT

Market manipulation is as old as the market..The winner is the hero and the loser is the bandit even here..Then,short-term manipulations ,however successful,can never change long-term trends..And long-term trend for commodities is up.

GBP 1.8750 may bring both good news & bad news for GBP bulls & bears..
heres the good news.. a weekly close above would keep the bulls dream for 1.95 alive & afford more Sell On Blip opportunities for her majesty's Sons Of Beatrice bears..
now the bad news.. a close under could see her majesty sliding into the end of the month..
have a nice w/e..

van Gecko 10:53 GMT, a renowned newspaper's investment commentar in HK also predicts GOLD will retract back to USD600 as another buying opportunity. He recommended the reader to buy GOLD several years ago when it was USD280.

Athens, what do consider to be medium term?

Athens 11:44 GMT May 19, 2006
Yesterday I wrote here, "I no longer consider selling EUR/$ rallies as USD bottom fishing but as the right medium term position provided one allows for short term price jerks and does not pay silly narrow stops."

The price action has reinforced my technical view (the rally to 1.2870 was an excellent selling opportunity based on that comment (selling EUR/$ rallies). Following today's action, I now have the same view on all the majors (selling their rallies hereforth as medium term position). With such a strong trend since April, we may still be in for some more back and forth moves, however m techs indicate that medium term USD bottoms are already in place on all four ,major pairs.

Thanks 1.10 may be ambitious was also looking at 1.22 first but whatever the case Euro seems to have topped here.

van Gecko 10:53 GMT May 19, 2006
FW CS.. good to see you again.. I beleive a retest of the 1.20/18 zones is possible with a sub 600 gold correction/reversal.. a 1.10 projection from here may be deemed as 'deceptive' in view of the recent bull run..


FW CS 10:33 GMT May 19, 2006
Van Gecko
what are the chances that Euro on its way to 1.10 ( which I think is going on now sell heavy anywhere near 1.29) and gold still up from here?

is Schnitzelology 'Wiener or FOS'?
imo any Schnitzleologists wanting to showcase their crafts & stuff 'Wieners' on 'FOS' Schnitzel_naysayers should post their Schnitzel trades as they occur.. then post a chart link after.. otherwise, it only takes up forum bandwidth & bring out more Schnitzel_naysayers..

Tallinn viies 14:28 - better hope 70 holds, parabolic rise equates to a parabolic sell off as a rule of thumb.

Tallinn viies 14:28 GMT May 17, 2006
wow, got my euro long at 1,2785. strange


HK Kevin 14:19 GMT May 17, 2006
van Gecko 14:04 GMT, hard to say. Too may uncertain factors at the moment: US govt's intention, interest rate, inflation and commodity prices. However, the European triple at least need a correction of 3-5 figures. Then, if dlr bottom is tested again and hold, we may see a more deeper correction of 10 big figures. If broken, new low of dlr is not far away.

Tallinn viies 14:10 GMT May 17, 2006
was away for couple of hours and look what they did to euro
anyway, buying order resting at 1,2785. wishful thinking I guess but lets see

HK Kevin.. good evening.. your m/t view for the poor dollar?

HK Kevin 13:34 GMT May 17, 2006
van Gecko 13:25 GMT, most traders underestimate the power of interest differentiation. The will soon realise the benefit of USD with a highter interest rate.


van Gecko 13:25 GMT May 17, 2006
The pending break of 1.2850 may be much more violent in ampitude then Monday's break of 1.2900.. FwIwW..

please buy now.

so far 1,2917 high, cant see reason why it shouldnt test 1,2965/70 later today. imho

Tallinn viies 07:09 GMT May 17, 2006
good moring,
for rest of the week it should be smooth ride for the euro up to 1,31sh.

potential classic 'V' correction/reversal in the works for the yellow metal after failing to crack the old 1980 decending highs in one go.. wiping out the recent 200 dollar vertical rise in the same rapid fashion could gift wrap another 1.20 Euro, 550 gold (gift or dung?) for all those anxious bulls who got left behind the party with all cheers & no pips to show..
cheerios..

Monday, May 15, 2006

NEW YORK, May 15 (Reuters) - The dollar gained broadly on Monday, staging its largest one-day rally versus the euro in a month, as a sharp fall in gold and other commodity prices gave the greenback some respite from its relentless bear trend.

Concern that a potential commodities bubble could dampen economic growth caused spot gold to take its biggest one-day fall in over six years, while an index of a basket of commodities registered its largest daily decline in almost 20 years.


van Gecko 13:11 GMT May 15, 2006
Miami OMIL (/:-> 12:56.. good day, hope you're fine..
i guess 'dung or gift' is relative to one's depth of the pocket.. btw, good call with the euro.. cheers..

van Gecko 12:50 GMT May 15, 2006
LOL I will take that yellow dung any time with the prices poised to test the highs back in the late 80's buddy LOL. I have no signs of correction on the way for the short term on the Gold. If 730 holds up as the top for now I have 680-85, 650-55, 630-35 and 610-15 as retracement numbers for now IMHO. Peace and GT

van Gecko 12:50 GMT May 15, 2006
imo the gift could turn out to be a load of yellow dung

seems the sell off in gold is being viewed as a gift

hong kong seek 08:03 GMT May 15, 2006
what's wrong with gold ?

Athens 11:02 GMT May 14, 2006
Personally I don't find the pattern healthy but rather fishy and many things keep me worried. It is very unusual to see the resumption of a long term trend, following the long term correction which always takes 12+ months to complete, to recover 60-70% of the correction territory in a month and a half as it has been the case with $/CHF and cable. The current pace of price moves fits more to corrections than to trends as the former as a rule are much faster than the latter on any time horizon. Accepted, we had a long lasting consolidation before the breakout and in similar cases the breakout is strong, however I am questioning the trend's real underlying strength on lack of a broad basis. I mean that the absence of healthy corrections has most probably left many (if not most) of would-be USD sellers out of this super move for I believe that most of those who sold the greenback during the early stages have taken their modest profits and failed to re-enter by waiting for decent technical corrections. If this i true, then the latest wild price extensions are either based on a continuous squeezing of daily bottom fishing or on large short USD positions held by only a few very big players (perhaps in good early knowledge of US Administration benign neglect for the Dollar), who, being only a few, can largely manipulate this market and take it to any USD abyss or turn it abruptly for any reason.
On the big picture one can hardly find any "nut" who does not believe that this strong price action will not lead to new USD losses and eventually new long term USD lows. I don't mean to be a heretic (besides, my model has still not yet given a reversal signal other than indicating certain seriously overextended parameters), however, to keep everything in mind just in case, I would like to remind you a few facts. In October 2000 EUR/$ reached its historic low 0.8225. In January 2001 the large correction reached 0.9595 (a 16.6% corrective leg). Then in July 2001 the unit fell back to 0.8350 (a 92% retracement) before the actual long term reversal set in. Those who were in the market at that time will certainly remember that on the way to 0.8350 there were very loud voices and plenty of noise about the Titanic sinking and EUR heading for 0.65-0.70. And yet, the Euro-Titanic not even did not sink but flied to 1.3665... By no means am I implying that the story will repeat itself in the opposite direction for I am not a prophet. What I am trying to say, however, is that even a deep correction from the current highly overstretched (more so in the other USD pairs and less so in EUR/$) or a bit (maybe) lower USD levels, even if the long term is to continue later, can be more than enough to "kill" for good any late USD bears. Those who bank on digging out the very dusted US deficits issues know very well (or they should) that such fundamental arguments are thrown into the dustbin when they no longer suit the market.

van Gecko 09:57 GMT May 3, 2006
sydney gvm 08:30.. very good entry.. any close below 1.82 between now & next week you could consider a trailing stop profit & go snooze for a return down to 1.78/74 zones for a 6 to 10 figure pay-out..

Syd 08:51 GMT May 3, 2006
Cable is now 1 cent off the day's highs, trading around 1.8370. Commerzbank analyst Andy Hart says the loss of momentum on the daily charts warns of a corrective pullback to at least 1.8230, maximum 1.8150 before the shorter-term uptrend resumes. Longer term, 1.7935 is viewed as a major base for a run toward 1.8590.

sydney gvm 08:30 GMT May 3, 2006
van Gecko 08:23 yeah I was wondering about 183. Took a short in the Asia session @ 184.30 with stop @ 184.85 - sweated that stop run but now trying to keep my fingers away from the BUY button. Some cycle dude was calling May 3 as a turnaround a few days back - maybe those cycles do work?

van Gecko 08:23 GMT May 3, 2006
sydney gvm 08:02.. how about 1.8280/20? that eccentric old fella has a life long habit of following through on solid hourly & 1/2 session candles..
btw, euro bulls hoping for a vertical blast up to 1.28 should watch her majesty like a british bull hawk..

Not arguing just trying to understand. Your old posts used words like "could" and "might" now it is a "must".
When applied as such it just sounds like random chirps we hear on the forum like "Sellll Selver LOLOL HAHAHAHA" all the way up several $/oz. A basis for thought process or reason for "must" is always helpful. :-)

L.A. Igrok 06:09 GMT May 3, 2006
On USD/CAD three out of four month so far this year have been seen as outside bars. I woudn't be much surprised to see May as key reversal as well.
USD/JPY is a tougher call. All depends on JPY crosses. 125-130 zone looks like reasonable levels to target before the end of the year. There could be a delay initially, however.

london 05:59 GMT May 3, 2006
L.A. Igrok 05:53 GMT May 3, 2006
You still like this Dollar level 85.50 etc.. or pivot level for M/T play ?
L.A. Igrok 02:16 GMT January 9, 2006
The real key is not in any of the majors but in USDX. 85.50 is a level to buy the buck against all of them for longer term. (Potential for whole yearly range profit.)
ps - great book too.

L.A. Igrok 05:59 GMT May 3, 2006
No need to argue. Will see.

Malaga boqueron 05:57 GMT May 3, 2006
re L.A. Igrok 05:53 GMT May 3, 2006
Also think that the parity on the EUR/USD comes before 1.2860 that you mentioned in the previous post.
Bold call there. Thinking is bad in this business.

Las Vegas Jon 05:57 GMT May 3, 2006
Makes a lot of sense doesn't it? You see the cable higher 100+ pips but Eur can't get a couple hundred before it loses 2700 pips no matter what?

Igrok- What do you mean by "must"? If it doesn't happen you'll go broke or can't pay the bills? Since anything can (and often does) happen in the market not sure what you mean. Please explain. :-)

L.A. Igrok 05:44 GMT May 3, 2006
1.2240 on the swissy is a must. Same is true for cable's 1.8510

Las Vegas Jon 05:43 GMT May 3, 2006
NS-
One of Schwager's "Market Wizard's"- a friend of mine is calling for EUR/USD to hit 1.2860 within the next several days- but notes that there could be some corrections soon along the way.

You may make our live easier by giving clearer ideas. For example, sell euro at 1.265, take 1/3 profit 1.235, 1.225, 1.215 with 150 pips trailing stop..

van Gecko 06:09 GMT May 1, 2006
some dollar bears must think they had die & gone up to heaven with this rapid move.. but with the dollar now at major m/t support & a new month starting, it won't take much to trigger a mass exodus..
and when a few good size bears decides to unload big chunks at the same time & spook the market, the bids can disappear faster then the eyes can blink.. little bears don't have the same problem as big bears in getting out before their paper profits are h'issed into the wind..

Qindex was once a secret weapon of Citi boys in interbank market for some years while he was paid Usd 10,000 per day for his valuable service..The highest paid advisor in interbank market at that time..Other bank boys had a sigh of relief when he left Citi..He used to contribute to "Nature" magazine in his another profession as a bio-chemistry expert..I know Qindex would not like to hear this but he was born with silverspoon in his mouth..But he seems to prefer the challenge of forex market over his family business empire..Forex market was once a gentlman's business with good manners and needing lots of money for entry ticket too..Wish Qindex all the best in his family business and other private ventures..

Respect above other things should be used in this kind of instance. Dr Qindex as he is so well know over the years of contribution to this FREE forum should be treated with some at the very least. Hope you still come around Qindex. You will be missed by many. Peace and GL to you Albert.

dr q - alot of newcomers not used to the older style of trading and the costs associated with that- now expect everything for free - or the education available from a retail providor... and i guess thats why 95 % stop trading after 3 months. all the best...... and not the worst thing to leave this tough business- i look forward to the day i walk away myself. gl

QIndex is one of the more highly respected contributors to our forums but unfortunately our members preferred the free advice to paying for subscriptions that would make it worth his while to continue offering his service. This should be a lesson for our members.
