Don't let a trade open over the weekend.

With that shutdown news ,nobody know's what will be the result.

Hell yea!! Shorted 1.2280 twice this week. Cashed in big both times. I'm "hoping" for a break of 1.2180 next week which would open the flood gate for bears. Though every time I said that, price has gotten higher. Only way trend will change is when market decides to change the trend, whenever that maybe.

Definitely not mate. I never hold over night manual tradewise. The lot size of this long is making me sweat! Shiting myself!

I reckon we'll have to wait until next week for that one.

My analytics have us heading to 2011 by the end of the month but I find that hard to believe.

Feeling remorse!

It doesn't matter how well you can read PA or how robust you calculate probabilities. If you ain't got the balls to match your conviction you'll only come away with regular returns. Up 20% on the day, in truth it should have been >300% but small balls at the moment. Out of practice!


Long closed gone short. 2236 An hourly chart trendline play. Looking at 2210 as the PT.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The move down from today's high follows a regular 5 wave pattern ( at least on my Renko). We are at the beginning of B Wave. According to Robert Fischer (The New FiboTrader), the enter long location will be between 2190 to 2167. If price even gets there! PT would be a 50% retrace of today's high and the pivot low that forms at between 2190 to 2167.

The New FiboTrader: a fascinating book with free software with strategy backtesting engine. Highly recommend!

The first sign of a down move by the zero lag indy thingy since the 14th!

90% of the shorts have been closed. Hold the rest for anymore downside. SL @ BE.

I was looking to short the 1m or 5m but nothing set up it just slid I can see it go to 2220 but then no setup there either

I have algo short stops @ 2215 but not looking to do anymore manual trades after this one. Too late in the day for me.

Why not look at the downsloping trendline on the 60m. Could be another short opportunity about to emerge.

HOLDING MYSELF BACK FROM SHORTING AGAIN! TOO GREEDY! I HOPE SOMEONE IS SHORTING 2230!

Very technical day!
Weekend is uncertain with government shutdown talks, EU dargi expected dovish talk and BOJ double meaning talks due in coming days. There might be a huge gap or movement. So closed all open positions.

hope everybody had a successful day!
Happy weekend folks

Closed the remainder of my shorts because "she" needs some Friday night attention and to be honest I'm just being greedy! I hope one of you took the short at 2230!

Have a good weekend.

Nice one buddy. I've been long and short since today's high; was confident (96%) 2221 was going to be hit when price was > 2280 but there was more money in it for me to play both sides on the way down (obviously larger lot sizes on the shorts); 30 pips here, 15 pips there, 25 pips there, 10 pips there, 35 pips there...soon adds up mate. I'm a day trader so I don't hold overnight and Monday will be a new day so will start with a blank piece of paper.

Good trading and have a good weekend.

Very bearish weekly close IMO, I expect to see lower prices next week.

Hey TW,

I'm glad to see you're a live and kicking after you were first antagonised for days then booted from the other thread after you responded to said antagonisation. I have missed the T-system, I found it interesting so hopefully you will start to post charts in here!

I'm also missing the wisdom of MisterSpread ; a gunslinger from the old school who was also banned after first being antagonised, responding to antagonisation then booted by the FX_Dictator.

I was rediscovering aspects of high risk trading psychology from MisterSpread and since the ban he has hardly posted anything! There really aren't many gunslingers to watch because they have a high mortality rate so when you find one who is thriving, it's a great opportunity to learn about the psychologically of very high pressure trading from a trader who is surviving and compounding the account by ridiculous amounts. The psychological insights were and would have been invaluable but now after his ridiculous ejection by the FX_Dictator (who probably has a fraction of MSpread's experience and for no good reason), those insights have gone.

Anyway, Friday was a good day. I emptied my head of any distractions and just traded Pitchfork price action. A day of being in the zone so on Monday I will have to get back into the zone porque tengo ambre para pips grande!

EUR/USD, weekly time frame formed a nice SHOOTING STAR.
may be this confirms us to go short if there is a breakout at level 1.22100 in the daily time frame.

Me, I love a long story.

Next week's action, I have no clue at this point. I will start with a blank sheet of paper at 7am GMT free from as much bias as possible then grind out the and hopefully feel like and not at the end of Monday's session.
