no spikes in exotics. is that right? USDTRY 2000+ points move in here when the mofo in glasses resigned. {image}
Yes asgcorp but you're assuming that this particular spike would have made me exit. From what I've seen, the spikes on exotics look very manageable for me. Obviously everyone has their own methods and some pairs will work better for others, etc.

I'm not assuming anything just saying that exotics can wipe you out just as fast as regular fx majors.

having said that exotics do produce very clean price action setups and generally ta-friendly, that's for sure. Very underrated also.

They're underrated, and I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I mean, would its 'personality' change if it were to become popular? I have no idea...

USD MXN is a definite short already, it gave a pretty solid setup on H4.

look at EUR USD. The most crowded fx market in here. And I won't touch that one at any rate.

The only thing im holding right now is a eurgbp short that i think is good for a quick 60 or so pips. but im thinking of cutting bait on it and just waiting to see how sunday/monday goes
On M15, if I were in a sell, I'd be looking to exit that short around 0.7890. It's looking like a buy setup for me but I'm not sure yet. I will wait and see how it looks next week.

Hmm, on my end, things still look bullish on the higher time frames but then, I don't trade the higher time frames. On M15 though, it looks like a sell setup on my end but only if I can get a good value which I think 17.9057-ish should do.

HAHAHA I think its a great trade. Im hoping to get in monday. My spreads on fxcm were litteraly bouncing between 20-70 points around closing time. NFW was i gonna even bother. But I have 17.3ish as a good target and if its impulsive then 17 is easy after the pullback

on both the 4h and the 1hr i have them completing a wave. so even if its just a correction I think 17.4-17.3 should be ok. Which I think is right around where your rising trendline is

Oh okay, yeah that's what I'm doing too. The spread really isn't bad. If I simultaneously look at USDMXN and GBPNZD, the visual distance between bid and ask is the same.

Yeah, the PA definitely looks much easier to trade. I've been weeding through the Exotics since I just spotted this pair and I found a few other good exotic pairs that I posted in some other previous post.

the nok and sgd are really nice too. plus the fundamentals are very easy to decipher. news on them is a bit tougher to get though
