Yeah.. i also think that trade balance news will be the trigger for the big blast.. already got my long position covered with tight SL just a bit outside of the range.. sell limit set on place.. and im ready to go.. bring it on baby..

We are not fighting against the Bull n the Bear
We are fighting against our own greed n fear - http://www.forexfactory.com/images/buttons/quote.gif
so... your long position covered with tight SL is the fear
and... sell limit set on place is your greed?

To be or not to be, that's the question

U can say it like that my fren.. Fear that my profits taken back by the market.. so cover it with SL..

ups sorry, i mean 2.0305
Sorry for off-topic.....

I saw your chart has marked with Fibonacci retracement, but your fibonacci ratio were followed by a @price number behind it. Is it a standard indicator of MT4?

I am looking for similar function for a long time, would you (or anybody) please tell me how to show up the price with fibonacci ratio together ?

BTW, return to the situation of cable, I am long bias. Price just hold at weekly pivot from yesterday, but higher than daily pivot today, and there is a tiny bounce up from weekly pivot. MACD above zero, and price will break up a 4H TD-trendline if it keeps hold this level up for next 12 hours.

I also agree that the price will go down first before it up since 1H and 4H stoch shown, but I believe the retrace will not lower than 0250~0240 (61.8% of yesterday crazy soar, also near daily pivot of yesterday). The worst bottom is 0225, 4H 250EMA.

I have long@0360, since I always fix initial SL to 190 pip, I believe the techi in above won't hurt me, and long term trend still point to north in this month. In fundamental, I heard the last month Trade Balance was revised up to GBP6.9bn from the original GBP6.3bn, since the forecast is GBP6.5bn, it maybe an extra protection to my order.

Great analysis.. just keep in mind that sometimes TA means nothing during news.. but judging from ur SL.. u must be a long term player so may be news volatility wont touch u.

Here's how you do it:
1.Place your fibo retracement in mt4
2.Go to objects --> object list
3.Edit --> fibo levels
4. Change in the description field--> 0@%$ --> for 0% and so on
5. You can add another level --> e.g: -100 or +161.8

BINGO ...
