Mine closed below the pivot (just) indicating a sell.

Hi all,
I hope you all had a good weekend.
Cable , 08-00 break. Low broke for more than enough. I did not trade it.

I actually traded e/u .(don't ask)
i trade e/u short off the 00-00 4 hour area. it broke low then retraced up so o took a opportunist short AND then it did it again. lol
2 shorts ,2 wins.
i am out now, it is still chilly i believe but fresh air is gooooood.
Trade well all.

Not a gin or any spirit drinker. Did try a glass of bombay sapphire from a neighbour a few weeks back - never again !

I always have one of these if my BillyBar trade half retraced against me and another one if it hits the counter level lol. I actually need to get some new bottles here as i couldn't have one today.

A traditional German herbal liqueur.

Last time I was in Germany we were drinking Gluhwein in a street market. Great stuff.

Your pivot is different to mine probably because your broker server is 1 hour ahead. Might be wrong.

If you watch price action like a hawk you may have a chance to move your SL once +5 so you at least wouldn't give back much of it if it reverses on you.

So for example if +5 move to +1, if +10 move to +5, if +15 move to +10, if +20 move to +15.

However i tried to many times with the BillyBar and the chances that it won't reverse on you and stop you out are high. It nearly always retraces for something like 5, sometimes in a matter of a second. But if you trade small lots you might be able/like to give it a bit more room.

I plan to add a second position to my BillyBar trade with SL at the opposite end fixed then. So i have 1 x FULL size going fixed for the +5 and add another 1 lot or so and letting it go either back to the opposite end and stopped out or wait how much it gave if sticking to it until NY open.

Gluehwein . You normally find me during the winter season at the christkindlmarket having Gluehwein. Unfortunately due to the pandemic this/last year we had to do it ourselves.

Yes the Pivots, idk. I haven't added that in a long time to my chart. The one posted is with all the default settings, i just dragged it there.

My broker time is 12:11 now, London 10:11, so GMT +2. My local time here is 11:11 GMT+1.

That long target is looking quite far away. Did you have an SL or a counter in place? Yesterday's long move looked a bit artificial to me, as the data from the US was good on Friday.

That move yesterday did look a bit funny didn't it?

I would guess it was a 4H Zline target (bang on). At least that's what I saw xD But I am seeing them everywhere now.

Haha I believe once you have seen them, you can't unsee them. I only spot them sometimes so might need to borrow your Z line glasses for a while if that's OK

Haha, they are not mine to give away : ). Only just got started with them as well, but they work like a charm (with a few other bits thrown in) so far.

i took one half with +10 pips, then got stopped out for -10.

then i saw a range between ADR-range (5 days) and monthly pivot and took another long try.

still think we have a lot room on the upside. if today it wont work, then i try it tomorrow again.

by the way, NTBB worked again at NY-open.
