Catnip, I did EVERYTHING wrong. I am a hopeless trader. But my morgage loan was in CHF/NOK, so I went in on 6.25 last New Year. It was a good top then.
However, it got really fucked up. And with advice from Alaidi, it got worse. Did you see EUR/CHF from 1,102 drop to 1.21 in some minutes. Well, Ashraf never beleived in it.

So.... I should never have contacted him about this in front.
He do not know nothing about NOK currency.
He know ALLOT, He is extremly good in what he do. But, that is only for the major currencies and also the market in general.

I don't know why I ever listened to him and others when it came to NOK.
But now it is done, so now I am done also.
I give up.

Good luck Catnip and others.

@chloethebull My 2c worth. I think this is a combination of short covering and the market positioning itself ready to go either way post-FOMC. If they announce QE3 and it's big enough, we'll see a risk rally (USD lower). If not and they announce something else e.g. Operation Twist, the market will likely be disappointed and USD will rally.

I'm interested to see that the current prices of EUR, GBP, AUD versus the dollar are at levels which are confusing the Elliot Wavers. For example, according to EW services I use, EURUSD should have spiked 1.3445 by now. GBPUSD and AUDUSD could go higher or lower from here.

It depends on the instrument you are using and how many percent of your trade account you invest. When you trade leveraged options you can loose 100% but no margin calls. I have never traded NOK in fx only leveraged options in the money.

good point Cat! i would add that either trading fundamental or technical, you must have a stop if you are leveraged!.. for even very good advice can go wrong..

Trading USDNOK you could have made more than 300 pips in just 2 days. Economy in question
NOK falls USD up. EUR in question NOK up. Its simple. I almost every time make money with NOK because I don't care for charts. Only fundamentals.
