You're almost as much of a hoot as I :0
The only reason I went short on gold is cuz I thot between the 2 (aud/usd & gold), Aud had a better shot of goin up than gold...which it has & thus I've already closed out all but 1 Aussie long lots...the 1 open lot was still up approx 6 pips when I was closing out the others (woops...jus gave ya my approx entry there..lol) before the spreads got too oudda hand for the wknd. & as you know....I've been attempting to go w/my gut & do the opposite here....thus the short Xau.....if it were Jan, there's no way on earth I'd try a stunt like this....BUT, it sure worked well ystrdy...hehe So no, I can't say that I was charting here or even using any indi's....sorry to dissapoint ;)~
But I can't give ya the exact # since lovely ol' Oanda seems to be down as they typically are this time of week....+ why would I wanna fully disclose....& to you of all folks? lolol
So now I just have the 3 Xau short lots to contend with (if I recall correctly).....& I can tell you that if you subtract 1/2 the increase on the spread since readjusting for the wknd (from 40 to 250...thus approx 105 pips per lot just on the spread alone) my total floating pip loss this moment really isn't truly whatever Oanda is quoting. & of course I dont plan on unloading even just 1 lil pip of that lot until the spreads come back down to at least a more realistic 50-100 pips...& will most likely try & wait it out til the spreads return back to the 40 pip spread sometime late Sun night or thereafter during mrkt "primetime"
I can't even make a guess w/re to how much it's down cuz I haven't looked at the acct in several hrs now....at least 3+.
But if I'm down anywhere's from 500-750 pips over the wknd w/it...that wont be all that bad on a 250 pip spread for 3 lots total....would you not agree? & of course that could very easily be made up once the spreads come back down to the usual 40 & if I'm lucky...gold retraces a bit from the rally its' had over the last 24+ hrs or so. That -500-750 pips I "might" be down at this point could quite quickly change to a -150 or even + # faster than you can say....."meow!!"
Like I say.....please....by all means....take it....YOU WIN...YOU BEAT ME!!!
You be sure & enjoy your wknd now & if ya happen to see me in your view....that's NOT my middle finger :0
HEHE
Cheers!!!
