XAU seems bullish right now. could still hit 1340 and above short term.

this is not system related, but is merely a trade for the rate hike, short eur/usd pair. rate hike is a sure thing in 1 hour time.

No trade for me, this is my previous 2 trade.

Long EUR/GBP SL 0.84750 TP 0.87350

yes, I did noticed the lower bb, but went ahead anyway. it is not strictly ahered to boss rule, but will see where it goes, no harm experimenting with small position size.

Fed Fund rate, expected to be the same. i foresee Yen to be strengthen.
