After a nice holiday break, Pipsurfer is back with his first post of the year! Did the markets give him a trade or was it a calm day today? See how it all went down in today’s Cowabunga Surf Report.

Today’s ForexAM video is – as far as I’m concerned – the first one of the year since the volume/bank holidays really didn’t make for an interesting or fully participated Monday session. The dollar did break lower and stay below the 34EMA on the daily chart and this has brought about a transition in the daily directional bias to a more neutral or sideways direction.

Good morning Forex friends and welcome back! My trade was closed during the closing moments of 2010, so it’s time to do a review of how my adjustments played out…check it!

Good Evening Forex friends! It’s my turn to share my 2010 swing trading performance, and overall it was mixed. I started 2010 strong, winning 80% of my trades in the first half, but took quite a few jabs to the chin in the second half trying to fight the trend.

With 2011 on the horizon, it was time to review my performance in 2010 to see what mistakes I made, my best trade setups, and what I can do to improve for the new year. So, how did I do in 2010?

It’s December again, and you know what that means – time to rest up, eat some bunnies, and hit the clubs with my man Big Pippin! But before I go off for a lil’ R&R, I will leave you with a review of my trading over the past calendar year.

…long title but it describes my morning ForexAM show today perfectly. I outline the details of my two recent EUR/USD trades as well as how I use the yen (versus the dollar and euro) to discover whether the Dow or the U.S. Dollar is the market driver. And I also briefly discuss Directional Bias to show how I ruled out a 60-minute EUR/USD swing buy.

As promised, here’s my in-depth review of how my trading went this year, complete with statistics and personal thoughts. I put a lot of work on this, so I hope you like it!

Happy Holidays! I thought I’d throw on a trading psychology article for your extended holiday reading pleasure. Taking a hit in the trading account is never easy, but it’s good thing your good ol’ Dr. Pipslow is here to give you tips on taking a chill pill with losses.

DECIDE, my three C’s and my three R’s are still all tools I use to this day, some twenty years into my trading. DECIDE stands for Direction, Entry, Chart, Investigate, Deal, and Exits. The first step, Direction, includes something that I have been covering a great deal as of late which is Directional Bias.

Boo hoo! Just when I thought this Loonie trade could reel me in some nice pips before the end of the year, Canada’s GDP comes in worse than expected.

Before I go off to play Santa for all the single ladies in the club, I’ve left y’all some presents. Under the tree today, charts on EUR/USD, EUR/CHF, and AUD/USD! Merry Christmas playaz!

Even though it was a topsy turvey day in the Cable, the Cowabunga system still helped me grab 19 pips today! See how it all went down in today’s Cowabunga Surf Report.

What a time for that trend line on GBP/USD to break down! Just when I had bought the pair in hopes of getting a piece of its uptrend, it decides to drop like a lead brick! Phooey!
