http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/ “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. en Copyright 2013 Thu, 23 May 2013 00:40:59 -0500 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Finally! A trade that is working in my favor! USD/CHF is just going higher and higher. I'm not about to let a good opportunity go to waste, so here's what I'm gonna do. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/usdchf-jumping-in-on-the-dollar-rally.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/usdchf-jumping-in-on-the-dollar-rally.html Thu, 23 May 2013 00:40:59 -0500 A lot of signals materialized last week. That means only one thing... A lot of fakeouts! I'm thankful that the HLHB Trend-Catcher 3.0 was able to minimize losses and only end up with a 17 pip loss. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-2-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-2-2013.html Wed, 22 May 2013 02:46:30 -0500 It was an amazing week to buy the dollar. The Greenback dominated last week's trading on the heels of positive data from the U.S., further fueling speculations that the Fed would soon start to taper off its asset purchases. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-20-to-24-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-20-to-24-2013.html Mon, 20 May 2013 00:28:25 -0500 One the things I love most about the HLBH Trend-Catcher is that it always pays off to be patient. After a few losing weeks, the system finally raked in a huge win on not only one, but both of the pairs that it trades. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-15-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-15-2013.html Tue, 14 May 2013 23:22:53 -0500 Better late than never, right? Here are my two cents on what moved the forex market last week and the trade setups I'm looking at! http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-13-to-17-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-13-to-17-2013.html Tue, 14 May 2013 05:00:46 -0500 What's worse than a loss? Two losses. Unfortunately, the HLHB Trend-Catcher ended the week with losses on EUR/USD and GBP/USD. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-9-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-9-2013.html Fri, 10 May 2013 02:00:39 -0500 Higher lows? Check. Rising trend line? Check. Fib levels? Check! It looks like a nice trade setup is forming on Cable. Find out how I'm going to play it after the jump! http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/gbpusd-eyeing-a-bounce-at-the-rising-trend-line.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/gbpusd-eyeing-a-bounce-at-the-rising-trend-line.html Wed, 08 May 2013 03:30:40 -0500 I just couldn't catch a break! My USD/JPY finished in the red as the NFP report posted an upside surprise. Lemme tell you all about it. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/usdjpy-shorting-on-a-pullback.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/usdjpy-shorting-on-a-pullback.html Tue, 07 May 2013 00:04:41 -0500 A brand new week is upon us! Here are the pairs I'm planning to trade in the next few days. What are your trade ideas? http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-6-to-10-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-may-6-to-10-2013.html Mon, 06 May 2013 03:41:53 -0500 Ugh, another terrible performance from the HLHB Trend-Catcher last week. When's the bleeding going to end? http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-3-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-may-3-2013.html Fri, 03 May 2013 00:47:54 -0500 Thank goodness for weekends! After an upsetting trading week, I think I'm once again ready to take the market head on! Here's my game plan: http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-april-29-to-may-3-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-april-29-to-may-3-2013.html Mon, 29 Apr 2013 01:48:54 -0500 "Bloodbath" is the only word to describe the HLHB Trend-Catcher's performance in last week's trading. Find out why! http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-april-27-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-april-27-2013.html Sat, 27 Apr 2013 00:55:42 -0500 It isn't even summer yet but I already got myself a major burn. My Cable trade got stopped out faster than you can say "sunblock" following the better-than-expected U.K. GDP report. http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/gbpusd-eyeing-resistance-at-the-falling-trend-line.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/gbpusd-eyeing-resistance-at-the-falling-trend-line.html Fri, 26 Apr 2013 00:37:19 -0500 What a volatile week! Currencies were just all over the place! One day, higher-yielding currencies were up on risk appetite. Then on the next, they suddenly drop like rocks due to risk aversion. Grrr! http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-april-22-to-26-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hucks-pre-week-market-analysis-for-april-22-to-26-2013.html Mon, 22 Apr 2013 01:27:33 -0500 Woohoo! The HLHB Trend-Catcher finishes the week with a gain on BOTH EUR/USD and GBP/USD! http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-april-19-2013.html http://www.staging.babypips.com/blogs/loonie-adventures/hlhb-weekly-update-april-19-2013.html Fri, 19 Apr 2013 03:26:38 -0500
