I see! Looks to me like cowards run in our thread!

Oh Yeah, and will probably be here to trade another day too.
What are you trying to say?

Sorry. Guess my humor does not always get clearance to make border crossings.

Joking that folks here are not trading because of fear that activity is sporadic and are afraid to lose money.

The second part, of course, insinuates that because of not trading the day before NFP, you will not blow up your account, and therefore be around in the future to trade more wisely.

Were you ready to take it outside?????

OMG. you're in Glendale. The only border between me & you is the LA & Ventura county lines.

Ok I understand you.

but the idea of not trading the day before NFP is because the market tends to get a bit flat so if you want to take a long weekend this would be a good time to do it.

Hi diamond, been reading this thread thru from the start, WOW, fantastic. Up to the vimeo bits, could you kindly tell me how to get access to the videos you posted. Thanks in advance.

To Mr Div. I applaud you on your efforts and willingness to help us all to move to the next level in trading. After a long time fighting a losing battle, I am finally seeing the light and slowly but surely learning to trade this method.

Thank you so so much, to all the contributors to this great thread.

ej react to news than eu or gu
Dort I dont know wht your trying to say, but to put it simply EU and GU are both crossed with the US Dollar, NFP - non farm payroll is a us announcement

EJ is not crossed with the USD being the euro yen cross

hope this is what you where asking
zzzzzz.... i hate nfp

although i could be tempted into a naughty short

however that is only a hippopotamus so dont go making any decisions or trades based on this hippopotamus observe the action or lack of action for yourself then make up your own mind based on the all the information you've gathered.

also have a fantastic weekend.
Knowing the trend is most important when trading any method, but we must remember as one trader told me yrs ago "there will be trends within trends". For the E/$ at this time we are in an up trend.

Divergence, again thanks for sharing this most simple way of trading.

A good weekend to all.

i had a software which i used in trading the news, on any usd news the software will recommend you to trade ej if it meet the trigger. from pass expirience if EU and GU move 70pips EJ might move +100pips. so if i understand you well trading EJ and EU,GU is of no difference.
nothing going on, gonna watch some paint dry instead.
anyone getting tempted?
yes
Absolute textbook... support turns into resistance, setup, trigger, chicken dinner!

I got that one on the EU and the GU. Didn't risk much but hey, pips = money in my account. Wasn't sure I wanted to based on more news but it looked juicy on both.

Had two small winners last night as well. No complaints for the end of a week.

My account grew. Have a great weekend and look forward to more next week.
no, changed my mind at last minute due to nfp. not the best decision i ever made

Interesting how that move took it down to the 1.4050 area and now there may be some divergence forming. Just watching to see if I can learn something. Not tempted yet.

May just need to walk away totally for the week.
