About The Loonie Adventures of a Forex Noob

The Loonie Adventures of a Forex Noob Author “Huck loves her bucks!” I always say. The problem, of course, is how to make those bucks!! In this blog, I'll be posting my adventures as I traverse the forex world, while trying to catch some pips along the way. To do this, I will make use of classical charting methods as well as develop my own mechanical system. After work, I will update you on what’s happened to me that day and how my trades went. Hopefully, by the end of this tale, I'll be able to achieve my goal of becoming a profitable currency trader.

HLHB Weekly Update - May 27, 2011

I may not be Britanni Kline, America's Next Top Model Cycle 16 winner, but I feel like I'm on top of the world with my win on EUR/USD! Although my HLHB system didn't do so well this week, I still think I'm ending May on a good note!… More…

Trade Idea Marathon: Waiting For A Breakout on EUR/USD

One thing I've learned in technical analysis is that the more times a support or resistance level is tested, the more likely it is to break and the stronger the resulting breakout will be. Since a falling trend line resistance has been holding nicely in EUR/USD, I've decided to put my idea to the test! … More…

Trade Idea Marathon: Bullish Flag on USD/CHF

So my "bribe" (term coined by a reader) did not work and I failed to get those 50 followers on my Twitter account. Still, I decided to go through with my plan and write up a trade idea every night for or the next 4 days. After all, what's losing a bit of sleep for my readers? Right...?… More…

HLHB Weekly Update - May 13, 2011

Trading the News: U.K. Inflation Report - Trade Closed

I jumped in at market, held my breath for what seemed like an eternity, and boom! GBP/USD skyrocketed up the charts and I came out on top with a 1% gain. Whew! I didn't know trading the news could be that exhilarating! … More…

EUR/USD: New Yearly Highs in the Making? - Trade Closed

HLHB Weekly Update - May 6, 2011

By now, you all probably know that I got a very painful loss on EUR/USD yesterday. I decided to take a break from the markets, cool off, and focus instead on how my HLHB system has been doing in the last couple of weeks that I wasn't able to forward-test it. … More…
