What comes up must come down....
Depends it may not happen in life time USD/JPY to 70s level, GBP/USD to 2 levels, EUR/CHF to 2 levels and S&P to 1K level may not happen in our life time

We will see, but I believe we could move a bit up again. We are now in something like waiting mode. We all know this.

Actually we could go down (they will start buying) and buy somewhere around "down there" ;D This will be interesting though.

{quote} ... Ctrader {image}myfxbook {image} Right now it's a bit different, but it doesn't matter much. What's better about myfxbook is the chart with change over time. It's like indicator. Updated every hour. Ctrader on the other way is updated more often. Honestly I do think that myfxbook sentiment is more than enough..., to be on the profitable side. As I said in other thread, price very often like to reverse on 50% retracement.Hope I explained it more than enough. :o) SF

Let's all benefit from this guys. :o)

P.S - Also keep an eye on the 10 000+ level on the sentiment.

There's no GAP, only bad data on yesterday CPI high impact data release.
It appear only on M30 , not in other TF.

No worries abt that, it happened when volume overwhelm the MT4 capacity.

Yep, wanted to. As said, didn't liked it. I rather close it instead of loss. Problem is, I'm using phone to trade. It's worst idea ever. I'll post trades only from PC. :o/ next time... Anyway you could buy and sell on high tho. This is what we said earlier. It's false move to confuse sellers.

Thursday: Jobless Claims
I don't know what is this.........?

Friday: $3.7 trillion options expiry happening on Friday, wouldn't want to miss that.
Then Party time..............
( Just wish today is Friday)... Damn the week too long for me.
Going for party and clubbing is motivating on the list.
We should get more early profit next week for that day ....
