Don't get to excited now, I'm not from NZ. I'm just wondering what kind of session you trade, since that's about the worst time zone one could be in. Or do you trade daily, weekly, monthly?

Greetz and success finding NZ-traders,

PriesT

Hey, hows it going?

I'm a kiwi and I know there are more of us out there on babypips.

Trading in NZ time is perfect for full-time work, and then intra-trade the european open The daily candle (On OANDA) is 4pm NZ time too Trading the US open is too late for me though!

I am more trading the daily candles at the moment as am moving around alot, and am on the practice account as can't monitor it everday from backpackers lol

I am still learning so sticking to the EUR:USD and EUR:JPY. Will get into NZD:USD and maybe AUD:USD when i am more consistent and confident.

see you in the markets this week

I am a new zealander living in australia. Hope that counts! I think that we are in a great time zone as have freedom to do what we like during the day like go to the beach etc and then trade evenings. I think the european session provides the best opportunities with plenty of pips to be made. I always check the market first thing in the morning, once during the day and then I am sitting in front of it at 4.00pm for the europe open. Perfect!

Hiya.-Yes I'm from Wellington. Trading a mini real but wiped out many demos to get myself where I am today. Happy to bounce ideas. I am using a 10Ema+21 Ema + bollinger bands (20/2). price outside 10 is a fast trend indicator and 21 is bull/bear indicator. Works from daily down to 5min. I can make money but need to learn how to stay in using trailing stops. Am shifting to 8 hr instead of 1hr. I'll report this weeks results. Regards Craigus
