International markets traders banter

TH, is that a paid news feed or one off the inet? I use briefing.com but they dont do much with asia.....Also, how is the data out of china for punctuality? I always thought they seemed a bit 'flexible' with their data releases?

Yeah Trade The News.

Spot on time wise but for things like that you hardly need the news. Just run with the nutz!!

Its of more use IMO for the surprises.

"data"??? Don't you believe them? Getting close to stall speed for them?
Haha I actually put that in with you in mind :p:
Thanks. Very useful info. Made me a few $.

Come up to BrisVegas and drinks* on me.

*Limited to 1 drink under the value of $12.
At least I've banked some profit on that move. :alcohol:

Surprised at how well HSI has been held up by those unfair bots!! Crack you Bi{@#
 
I've been playing mostly short on the HSI since open but had no position during the ann. Then only got a tiny amount filled cus it pretty much all happened in less than 15 sec!!

Any of you guys still fade those moves?

I've been fading so many moves. I've faded the fade and then had to fade that fades fade.

I think I've discovered a new dimension in space!

LOL, you've torn a new hole in the fabric of the fade...:eek:
 
15 sec! If only you had your server in the exchange building in China ;)

I have. :p:

But besides that it actually was just a 15 sec fall. Looking at it now I'm surprised I got any fill.

Hey TH, Are you able to print the 1 second bars with volume for the quick move bit ... thanks?

Have you done many stats on the regularity of the range of these flash moves on the HSI particularly?

I notice FX pairs are peppered with "regular" range/time moves which has been a revelation to me. The more I study FX the more conventional indicators I remove from the chart .... and I note with exhuberance that you don't use many/any indicators;):D Cheers.

The problem with Honkers is the exchange is based on old Tech. When it goes nutz like that you cannot even get timely data, let alone get fills and feed back as to what you got filled and at what price. It really is poor.

Time is my most important "indicator", guaranteed to work everytime.

Haha ..... Just being curious:D

So it was pushed down "cheaply" about 70 points before it hit volume .... Would that volume have been visible in the DOM? (I don't have DOM so forgive me if thats a dumb question)

How the McHell do you trade it on such short time frames with so much confidence ..... :eek:

mmmm ....... some elaboration on that would be wonderful, but I know you would have to kill all of us!! :D ....... any advice via PM would be graciously and thankfully taken on board if offered;):D

Cheers ...... and I trust that ticker is behaving itself !!

I've been in SanFran since Saturday. Was sort of hoping to be able to trade NY hours instead of Tokyo but been super busy.

San Fran, nice airport...that's all I've seen of it and that was unscheduled!

Canadian Dollar going on a bit of a bender tonight on the back of improved economic outlook.

US housing starts down, but permits up 4.5% ........ so they'd rather spend more on building new houses than buy old ones at record low prices .... interesting.

Should put a Bullish undertone on markets for a day or two you'd reckon.
