Dollar biased down across the board. Oil up on "saboteurs that blew up a pipeline in Mexico" - de123???????????

Dow futures up and headlines - so far - have it "cut sentiment" picking up

Trichet a coming, but I don't think he'll be a mover. Bernanke a coming, but I don't think he won't B.S.

2,0276. GBP USD is in an uptrend which support is 2,0100 and resistance is 2,0315. The price is just bellow 2,0315 resistance. The volatility is low. Bollinger bands are flat. ForexTrend 1H, 4H is in a bullish configuration. The uptrend should continue to gather momentum. The price should find a resistance below 2,0315. If the resistance is broken then the target will be 2,0500. We won't take a position. The risk/reward ratio is too high to take a position..
Moe:
May I ask what time frame did you based those numbers on?

While you guys wait, cable has put 90 pips day already, euro +50.

Buy pullbacks and take your chances. There are no sure-fire trade or risk-free systems....

And we'd better enjoy what European session is giving away, coz US session has been confusing

I've been saying this here. During those tough days, I decided to trade in one direction only. I picked "up", but those picking "down" could be as profitable.

So the bounce off 0233 + fade off the news, got me in long.

But I won't think twice to TP the whole position at first sign of B.S. taking over. Then I'll wait for the next window..

RMK: I picked long just because it's inline with the prevailing trend. Betting that sometime the trend will resume and I'll be catapulted sky high. While it doesn't happen, I go eating the crumbs.

Cable is a bitch to trade lately. I'm just not out of the market because euro is trading in a fair way.

The good about euro is that when it has a bias, it remains biased. Not like cable that traded 100 pips off its high yesterday making you lose sense of its bias.

Euro's downside is that it's less volatile, so I increase the size severely. In the end of the day, you can get more from euro with 30 - 40 steadly pips than from cable's swings...

Just waiting for euro to trade the previous high 3850s to TP partial and see what's next. May Trichet help

Hi there, i've been closely watching this thread everyday for about 3-4 months now and haven't really said much. It's very interesting reading various trades being done all day.

I've been following a simple system at the moment, but i can't seem to make it work in 2005 and mid 2006, is it because of the low volatility in that year(s)?

Any help would be appreciated.

why would you want to test your system back so far.....why dont you try this simple system ...when i was biggining my trading i made a shit load of cash with it.....

try plugging a 150,170...200...300...and a 8ema....yeah they all are emas....closed...

plug a horrizontal line at every 25 points on the gbp/usd....on a 5 min chart....now the trick is to study the chart very well and based on your trading habits...place your trade...lets say you sell at 300 take a sl of 10 to 15 pips but aim towards 50+ pips...or enter on touch of emas...specially 200 or 300//////
