Their latest changes to both MT4 and MT5 platforms prevented compilation of the PSC source code due to new way the string variables must be compared. Luckily, I think I had enough time to test my other changes too, and now I am able to offer an interesting update […]

EUR/USD Crawls Higher Despite US Housing Data
Today’s US housing data was good but it did not prevent the dollar from losing to the euro. Analysts explained such behavior by traders’ desire to lock in profits ahead of the year-end. Existing home sales rose to the seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.61 million in November from a downwardly revised 5.57 million in October (5.60 million before the revision). Experts predicted a decline to 5.52 million. (Event A on the chart.) Crude oil […]
