Quoting CARP.BLUFFS
Look like Euro is coming out of Weekly Flag, first need to fill the gap @ 1.194xx And then make a new high target is 1.263x.On downside if it makes a lower [email protected] Then I am not sure if Flag pattern will hold, I am not long waiting for gap to fill then will buy on pull back. {image}
I am moving my stop to 1.164XX because of FOMC Rate decision might cause spike

I can go with that...and am not in a trade on EU myself..but I honestly have only entered 2 live trades in the last 2 weeks..a lot of research..and the order book is one of things ive been looking at as a point of confirmation to regular analysis. seems reasonable so far..but also working on a Momentum/Keltner EA for long term. seems to be a profitable idea without all the garbage SUPER SCALP OMG MILLIONS junk..simple really but 30-40% yearly from 2005 through now on a conservative note is proving reasonable..wont put more than a 5% of portfolio into it though IF it works..and IF and when I manage to make one..EA's are a nightmare the more and more I get involved with them it seems..when really..1 good manual trade every few days could take even the best EA's and make them look like crap over 5 years.

on a back to reality note..no really logic behind any this..but seems like a good chance that tomorrow fomc rate decision..if as expected..will be a quickly smack down for the 40-50 pips or whatever on eu and then a strong bullish rally...U.S. politics doesnt hurt the idea. but the idea itself is pure gut..no merit.

I'm clueless about EA's, and to be honest, other than very short term trading, don't see any use in them. Sure their are probably EAs/algos making millions out there, but its not for me.

And yes, you only really need a few good trades a month to make a good living in this business.

I've been playing with the Weekly TF lately on the side, it wasn't the best pattern but I have USDJPY going to 112.980 so it "should" play out by end of week.

cable has been mostly down, and 1.3420 has been pretty wicky lately, and its my best resistance on the board right now....so I'll sell some there, risk 30

We had the same thought, did a couple of quick scalps. If it pushes back up, I'll scalp it again. GBPUSD, GBPCHF, GBPCAD, GBPNZD look scalpy also but they've got to push up more to make it worthwhile.
