-'QE' stimulus target US$1 Million balance sheet. No set deadline. Data dependent.

I have another 80K cash that I can QE into my IG. With this QE, I can play 25-30 lots instead. Should I do it?

Ownself approve ownself QE budget.

Wow Mr. Jedihan you play so big! I see liao very scared leh! :eek:

Using US$80,000 as equity I believe smelly smelly can leverage to US$4 Million worth of contracts. That is 40 standard lots! :eek:

Suddenly 'QE' so in trend? Once start doing 'QE' it is very hard to tighten the balance sheet you know? :s13:

CABLE: Breaks above $1.3200 and seen challenging the reported resistance level at $1.3207 (90 week ma, said to have helped cap Friday at $1.3223, line at $1.3226). Break here to expose last Friday's high of $1.3223.

****y 1.32X is the level that I long last year but have since cut losses months ago as GBP is super volatile. :s22:

This is why I dare to play no stop loss knowing one fine day it will eventually recover. Many positions have recovered when I hold it out all the way plus gaining swap points along the way. :D

Only punt with funds that you can afford to lose.

Why do I have a feeling Mr. ExtremeWays is Daimon kor kor haha? :D

This. The first time I lost 8K one night due to 8 lots of GBP usd. Whole night cannot sleep. Especially it rebounded after I cut.

Want to earn 3K a month? Earn 15K also can be easily done. Problem is lose 15K also as easy.

I still trying to beat the fear so that I can decide to all in into my IG or not... Else I probably slowly diversifying into gold, bitcoin first

I agree. Always leave a backup nest of money. $10-20k also good. Sorry if I am wet blanket too. But let's be realistic here. If you forex all empty, your life still have to go on.

I guess everyone is right. I am about 30% in at the moment. I still have stocks (sadly is the lousy mistake of M1) in case.

Try to stay diversified. Investment and trading are different matters.

Mine is mostly Forex for Fixed Income yields and a small portion for Forex trading (some say punting :s13:).

No stocks. I only put money into what I know best. Forex and hard assets. :D
