Best month for a long time.
At the end of January we saw a huge increase in volatility (see VIX chart) in the US stock market. This volatility spilled over into Fx. So we’ll be seeing more trades, but there’ll also be a greater chance of losses – so make sure you’re not trading too big.
I had a technical issue with my AxiTrader 2 account now resolved.
Still not sure why the ActivTrades account is not getting trades through. I need to do some more investigation.
