Im with IG markets but that open book feature is cool. Will be watching Ben live tonight/early tmrw morning, just need to clarify what time exactly.
VRS, do you trade during a regular week or only on announcements? Just announcements for me as Im just a beginner and sticking my strict trading rules.
pretty sure 2:30am EAST Friday morning... would love confirm
 
77.64 will be my entry but i have to see how strong the move is before i take it...... stop loss 78.04

It currently is bouncing around 77.74


I bloody wish lolol!

(Sorry, I read that only once and thought you meant 77.74/oz, in which case the probably qualifies as a new term - 'SMACK MY PHYS UP' - Apologies to Keith & Liam)

I'm chipping away constantly throughout the day (via eToro mobile app) until proper sit-down for the night shift and US open, because most action's between 6pm & 1am Aussie time - I'm walking the dog (scraping/scalping) whenever I can, so 10-15 pips on $100 trades or if I feel (f)riskier / more confident will leverage.

I use this to trade announcements:

Ps - If you've got an iPad check out an app called Swiss Forex - really useful bit of kit ;)
 
Thanks everybody some of this info is starting to stick , though I think I'm more suited to sitting on my stack it's fun watching players at work. Good luck!

I am suspecting a smack down before then... if silver is going to rise I swear they guess the amount and smack it down that much to = standstill


Hmm is that like roughly 4 in the morning for us?

Check post 29
Unemployment at 830am, FOMC statement at 1230pm, Economic projections at 200pm and Press conference at 215pm (NY time)
I think the statement would be the one to watch as most/all of the action might happen before the conference, unexpected employment (to the -ve) might give an indication of what will come later. Hopefully they don't fence sit, and make a clear decision either way.

This website World Clock Converter is very useful http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

I use when I am organizing suitable times to speak to interstate and overseas clients. It is very handy especially when we/they are coming into/out of daylight saving.

Beats doing mental calculations at 1:00 in the morning!
 
volatility......?????....c'mon all...its only gone down by a dollar or so....and then rebounded by 70 cents or so.....thats not "that" out of the ordinary......i would agree with you if we saw dropps of 3-4 - 5 dollars.....but what i'm seeing is quite normal considering the last 12 months......or so....
 
Great piece on Bernanke's upcoming options & what to expect tonight FYI from FT Money supply Blog:

Could get messy...

"No matter what the Fed announces tomorrow, if it makes no breakthrough on its policy framework, and simply announces a change of the forecast date or a lump of QE, I will be disappointed. I suspect in time the market will be disappointed too.

On the other hand, if the Fed successfully ties its policy actions to the state of the economy it will be a dramatic step forward answering a big part of Michael Woodford's Jackson Hole critique and putting the Fed in the unusual position of global central banking innovator.

My guess is that there will be an open-ended programme of QE: nobody wants to do another $600bn lump so I expect they will hash out an economic condition. I'm less sure about the rate forecast. Either way, tomorrow is going to be exciting."
