Week not goin' well,

Hey All,

I said I would post my results for the UK Trade Balance. Didn't trade it. Oanda hiked the spreads again on me. Took me right out of the trade. The total movement was around 40 pips in 45 seconds. Great trade I hadn't had to deal with the 20 pips of total spread. Hopefully U.S. Trade Balance will be better.

Also, Canada House Starts didn't move on the news release. Lost my spread ... not really a big deal. Can you believe the move it took on the interest rate news? No forecast to change, didnt change... moved the market 100 pips! Remind me to straddle every interest rate from now on :).

Good luck,

Livin
