-set your timezone and match to your pc time first by clicking on the time on the top of the page! Also - if you reload the page 5 minutes before a release you can hit a little button to get the number to spit out at the right time. I would supplement this with watching the Bloomberg channel at the same time as it will be a bit faster and confirms accuracy.

Check March '09 correlations at

Nothing moves in forex without affecting something else...
This link is for december 2007 correlations

Dailyfx also has a great charting section. I prefer the netdania charts when I am at some random PC...

Here is a link to basic info on pivot points:

Daily pivot list and update:

These only update for the US and London sessions - Tokyo you will have to find your own source or do the math, or write down what the numbers were in the US session and use those. For some reason they show up negative on this site if you load the page too late in the day.

Charting - Use what you want but I use MetaTrader4, google it and look for a free download for forex. Lots of brokers use it and all it requires is a free registration from many of them - I use the one from North Finance (I am NOT saying use them as a broker I am just saying their free datastream and download never run out and have been very accurate so far)

Totally free email/sms indicator and price alerts!!

ALSO - Really cool way to look at the commercial order book!! Confirms a long term trend if one side is 'light' - check it out.

If somebody weighs 300lbs, the right solution is to lose weight and eat your vegetables, not to "devalue" the pound.

Watch ALL the free videos and stuff this guy has, and make your own conclusion but I think he is good and I like the trading ideas. YMMV of course.

It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity.
If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente.
