About The Loonie Adventures of a Forex Noob
“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.

USD/CHF: Short At First Sight
You know how people tell their stories of love at first sight? Well, it was like that with my USD/CHF trade. But I think it's more apt to describe my feeling as short at first sight. I hope I don't end up getting my heart broken like yesterday with my missed EUR/USD trade.… More…
EUR/USD: A New Trend Higher?
I'm doing it again. I'm going to buy the dip! This time, however, it's gonna be EUR/USD. While my plan on GBP/USD didn't work out too well last week, I'm hoping this time I'll get lucky!… More…

Trading The News: Lesson Learned!
Surprise, surprise! The U.K. Claimant Count Change came out worse than expected yesterday, which resulted in a drop in Cable. In addition to that, risk aversion hit the spotlight again as EU finance ministers failed to come to a conclusion regarding Greece's bailout.… More…
GBP/USD: Buying the Dip
I've been a tad too conservative with my entries for the past three weeks. But when I kicked it old school and listened to Grover Washington Jr. Today, I learned that "Things come to those who wait but not for those who wait too long." … More…

Risk Aversion Plays on EUR/USD and USD/CHF
Here are the trade ideas I told y'all about on Twitter. Gosh, I hope at least one of 'em gets triggered. I haven't had a trade in what seems like forever! Now I have to keep my French-tipped fingers crossed for risk aversion to stay.… More…
HLHB Weekly Update - June 3, 2011
Remember that crossover I pointed out in my update last week? It turns out that my 30-pip filter kept me from catching a 300-pip move. Boo hoo! Poor lil' Huck just sat on the sidelines this week.… More…
USD/CHF: Riding the Downtrend
It's a bird, it's a plane... No! It's the Swissy soaring up the charts! Okay, that's corny. But you know what I mean. I'm gonna try to get in on the action and short USD/CHF. Gosh, I hope there are enough bears left to push the pair to a new all-time low.… More…
