chloethebull, I suggest you to pay attention on EUR/CAD......the pare may start make it new lower in coming weeks...... If you believe EUR/USD will break 1.40 or back to 1.40......you should hold the pare for days, otherwise, it is very dangerous to hold it without stop loss............
Good luck!!
I got short positions on USD/USD at 6.990 and 6.970 this morning, I didn't post it when I placed the order. Because I didn't sure that I was right or not.....but now it turn better.....
About tomorrow's report, I think it will be better than expected, but I am not sure that traders will use it for taking their profits or continue to short USD......but I decide to hold it until the report come out....

Chloe, have a a look at this forex school - i found it handy when i was starting out. Its free and written in simple language with a small test at the end of each lesson. http://www.babypips.com/school/
Chloe, Asad's advice soudns pretty sensibe. Your question about how many pips u should go for is similar to asking ie "how much should i eat or what should i eat for dinner". As he said, it depends on your risk tolerance, on your outlook, strategy, and most of all margin requirment. While its important not to let your losses run, it is as important to NOT sit on your profits and let them unrealized. This is free money we should all pocket when we see it. I usually go for 30-40 pips and sometimes 100-160 pips. There's also pyramiding/scalding down or up as a trade develops along with a moving market and you accumulate incrementally while closing previous positions.
Said, sure thing. 72.40, then 73.20. Oil interestingly lags gold these days.
yes i try to figure out the WHY...an i find it hard to beleive that the recession is over ..theres green shoots..all is fine...the usd is no longer #1 currancy...the world can afford 75-80buk oil..cad goin to paridy...all within 10mths or so...i agree eventually..but in 10mths or so..seams alil ambishish...thats why when i see pressure on usdcad i see it as a buying oppertunity in the short term cause ive seen it in the past 2mths go from 1.17 down to 1.0650 an it always snapps back but i do notice that the higher highs keep gettn lower so in a orderly fashion all those things might come true in time...also china hold 2 trillion in usd wheather or not they like it there tied to usd for a while..an couldn;t a strong cad undermind canadas own recovery?thanks for the chit chat pz
