I'll be bearish on AUD/USD if the daily candle closes with an engulfing pattern which will happen if price is flat or continues downward. Then price pull back into the oval while stochastic moves down out of the overbought area would prompt for an ...

Stopped out on AUD/USD at entry. My plan may have been flawed but it's more important that I followed it through. At least I got a few days of interest. AUD/USD daily is still bullish while the 30 minute appears to have a change in the trend to the ...

Volatility — I like to keep an eye on the 20 day range of a couple dozen pairs. From those, I narrow a the list down to the top six. This is because I want to trade pairs that move. Measuring volatility is the first necessary step in my ...

It's been a bumpy ride but everything is still pointing up. The daily, the 30 minute with it's higher lows and five false signals to sell and so on. Right now, a clean break of 1.0151 will make me look for another entry or two.

I took a stab at going short near the beginning on the Asian session with -25 pips and reduced risk made it even less painful. Today's range on AUD/USD was about 200 with an obvious trend change from bear to bull. Now isn't an ideal time to go long ...

AUDUSD — Wow, it's been ruff getting in and staying in on AUD/USD. I had a trade earlier today that went up to around +45 or so and attempted to get in again after price pulled back but got out before breaking even. Momentum has really slowed ...

I'm not short AUD/USD now because of a tough day trying to go short on Friday. Also, a lot of the major pairs are in extreme oversold areas against the USD on daily charts. I'm not saying the trend will change now, I just want to be more cautious. ...

-25, -15 and -11 on 3 attempts to go short again. In hind sight, I shouldn't of been in the first one and shouldn't have taken any losses. Good thing smaller lot sizes were used in this mess.

Well, I decided to close out early and watch for a pull back to get back in going short. Price can easily present an opportunity around 1.0060 +300ish pips on 3 positions, almost doubling the account.

AUD/USD — The Reserve Bank of Australia interest rate fell .25 percent yesterday while AUD/USD has been a strong pair to trade lately. It's average 20 day range has out performed the EUR/USD slightly and GBP/USD by far. The quality of the ...

Those are actually quotes. The first from a fellow trader, the next two are from Jack D. Schwager and the last is from someone who Jack D. Schwager interviews in one of his books. As far as trades this week. I was pretty much breaking even until ...

Short EUR/USD — I have my doubts with this trade but it could be a great one if it does about follow through. What concerns me is how there has been a higher high on the 4 hour since the 55ema cross the 200ema on May 15th. A bearish 4 hour ...

It's Official — EUR/USD appears to be in the beginning a bearish trend. I'm still holding my position from last week and I'm very interesting in placing more short positions.

Partial profits taken at +17 and +104. I'll be holding the last 3rd until I get stopped at entry or until the bearish trend ends. I am also trying to get back in with more short positions if there is a good setup.

I'm Bearish EUR/USD. Unless price moves up a few hundred pips a bearish weekly heikin-ashi candle will form and the 55 ema will cross the 200 ema on the 4-hour. I've been trying to get in some short positions for the last few days and I might have ...

A lot of volatility so far this week and EUR/USD could go either way. A bullish candle would prompt me to look for a buy but price has been so wishy-washy and the spreads are larger than normal. This is telling me that there isn't as much liquidity. ...

Lack of follow through so far this week while price is in the riding phase of a great opportunity from last week. I've been in and out yesterday and today taking some 5 pip losses and profits from 25 to 30 pips.

I hope some of you got in on that text book trend. I decided to take the week off and add more money to my account since I was up 50% this week since a few months ago.
