If your higher timeframe analysis is good one could keep positions over the weekend... In most cases. Gotta keep in mind though that shit happens, and a massive news event during the weekend could (not to say WOULD) be used as cover for an aggressive gap.

Also the spread can widen a lot when the market reopens.

Hi Guys! this is my analysis for these pairs
Eur/usd short
Aud/usd short
Usd/ cad long
Usd/ jpy long
Nzd/usd short

The spread on nu pair is 56pips at end of friday from my ecn broker fxpro, does anyone know when they widen the spread, do they widen the buy price from the sell price to trap buyer, or widen the sell price from the buy price to trap seller, or widen it both way to trap both buyer and seller? How can i observe which way they widen? Am glad if anyone can share some knowledge on this :)

From my understanding,it doesn't matter which way it is widen...Like CJ said when spread is widen,it is to stick stop order going the other way..So i.e if there's a 3 pushes up,a sudden increase of spread,and a rapid move forming a pin,we can expect there's a buy stop order triggered there so price will reverse quickly to trap them and give no exit..

You have to know the average spread for each pair at your broker platform...If there's a sudden increase,eyes wide open :shock:

When you have a Bit of Time Re-Analyze your Open EG Trades especially if you are Buying/Long at the Moment.

The spread increase towards the end of trading sessions on friday, and sometimes at the end of NY session and
start of Asian trading session.

I would be very careful to have a live acc with FXpro. I often had my trades in profit closed and lots of SH.

When I wanted to draw my money from FXpro, They would change it from debit card( which they happily accepted), to only bank acc,which their bank charges( in cyprus ) almost 2.5 times more than the banks in UK .

For my understanding yes we don't count as L3 so there is market reset after level 2. I'm also very new to this still learning may be experienced guys can explain this better.
