Nice entry Dharma- textbook stuff! Hope you covered some at the previous lows. I've just entered long on euro and cable after 15min euro closed on the monthly pivot and 15min 200sma and cable closed on the 15min 50sma

I like watching both the AU and EU and I also watch the GU. They are very correlated so I've found that often one of the pairs is showing much cleaner PA on any given day. Also, the movement of the other pairs offers hints as to the general direction.

I've moved my stop on the new cable trade to -4, as that DBLHC is a nice landmark! And BE on Euro, so stress free now.

You'll find when you watch all three, that sometimes one or two give better PA and are at better locations for your trade direction ie the right side of strong ma's like the 1hr62, so it gives you the chance to hopefully take the best setup. I know Pippi trades EJ as well- I have it on my chart, but find at the moment I've got enough opportunities with these three

Nice trades bro. I was watching that EU 200SMA but was holding off since I had the AU short going. Look like it was good for a quick bounce at least.

What made you pull the trigger on the cable long? It closed below the 50/35 and you must have entered right on the open of the following candle...

Yes- it was a kind of 35/50 reverse that closed on the 50 sma and the 70 level (look left on 15min chart to see why) enough conluence for a bounce I thought

The Euro trade was very similar. We had a near flat close on the 200sma (1hr 50) at the 70 level which was also previous support on the 1hr chart.

It's no big deal- PA at the right location works on just about everything!
