    I use two internet links from two different providers (Verizon Bright House) and I have not noticed any substantial lagging with quotes. When I've observed, it's always been consistent with charts I've open from providers at the same moment.
    I loaded fxsol platform. It's a complex platform. I think thats the reason I did not like them. But I am glad to hear its working out.

Irrespective of my leverage, I would trade the same lots for this experimentation. Pip values would be the same, margin is used, what is so bad about it?
    Once I say use 400:1 leverage, I am really leveraging yourself profoundly on transactions.

    Sitting on one of my first trades. Hasn't triggered my stops, as I've made my stop limit fairly high (would need to reach 1.3060ish). I entered the transaction and it didn't obviously. I think we're currently visiting triangles so I do not have a problem waiting it out. I feel like I know I already have steps in my mind to be certain that it doesn't happen again and what I have done wrong to get into this situation in the first position. Now that my home office redecoration is coming along I'll be able to sit and remain focused, awaiting chances. We'll see!

    I believe that you will come out ahead or relatively unshed if you're short EUR/USD then.

    Everyone is rooting for you.

    Cheers!

    I'm going to roll the dice a little bit and try to knock out step 5 and 6 at precisely the exact same time (48 pips @ .40/pip) while I am away from the keyboard tonight


    Moving Extended @ 1.2776

    seeking to hit 1.2824

    S/L 1.2526 (only at the beginning stages will I use stops this long, and because we're still at the triangle formation) Setting call alerts @ 1.2676 in case something drastic happens...

    Ever since I ended up being awake, I watched it creep around 25 pips in the positive... then drop down to approximately 5. . As it climbed up to approximately 18 I shut the order at 15 pips obtained. (1.2791)

    9 more pips to go for measure 5... I will likely let it dwiddle again then ch another extended hopefully

    Good luck!

    (After the transaction on screen. Not inside, but trusting it does make the 95. Crossing fingers)

    Just out of curiosity, where is your S/L?

    L.A.
