{quote} unfortunately, mate, I don't have the indicator. This is my proprietary calculation on where to place the bar. I can't share it right now, may be later on. I've been testing it for 2 month, and I think it still need some adjustment here and there.
No problem, completely understandable. I mostly eyeball SR so I was only curious.

USDJPY and USDCHF essentially look the same. I have a short on USDCHF at 0.98324 and starting to wonder the same. I'm targeting near 0.97957 which is about 113.068 on USDJPY. Where's your target?

{quote} It's all green lights to 114... I wound up reversing at 113.15
IMHO, still quite early to go 114, Daily still need up and down for some candle

I refuse to get caught up in the news, i guess you could call my style algorithmic pattern recognition. it is by far the most accurate stratagy, ive found. to the pip. the piont is if you look at the markets in that perspective, all news and outside influences short of cb intrest rate adjustmesnts is just another form of market noise.

lets take a pole.

All traders, i like to know how many of us are news traders, I know lots of people do. and roughly what is your win loss percentage, as usual im the contrarian. I think most of it is nonsense.

Hi

I missed that beautiful spike to 113.25. Do yo think is there any chance UJ will visit it again in what is left of the day?

I'd say based on how it trades late Friday you may see a spike about 10 minutes before closing bell.
