Are you still looking at AUD/CAD?

I am going to make some good money on this pair, this week. I am determined.
No, I missed it. Did you get in around the .8620 area? Looking good.

In about 15 minutes the GbpJpy will have closed with three 4hr bull candles off of the 4hr pin bar

It means that the bulls are not ready to give up and they are currently not able to overcome the bears who are stuborn at the 231.65 area.

Hi guys, I've written a MetaTrader indicator that will calculate with a visual stop loss line how many lots to trade given a fixed risk %. I've posted the .ex4 file and screen shots in this new thread over in the MetaTrader forum. I wanted to especially share it with you all since most of us are very concerned with proper money management and good position sizing. I hope you enjoy it and can find it useful.

No I got in at 0.8705 and 0.8750 - I like to play these when I am absolutely certain my chance of losing is minimal...

Which brings me to another point. I know some of you are already in this. I would say that right now price is entering the "Interference zone" - I don't know if that term already exists - I hope it doesn't because I made it up on the bus this morning when I was thinking about this position.

I would describe the "interference zone" as the zone where most new traders (and some more seasoned ones) are most likely to f*** the trade up by interfering with it the moment it gets into profit.

The weekly pin has now triggered and we've had a strong break through the S/R pivot which has also had a minor test before moving higher. It's looking fairly good right now but its times like this where you act to secure some profit (perhaps move your stop to just beneath the pivot) and then get stopped out just before the move takes off...

I'm fighting this myself...after all it is a weekly pin - not sure why I am trying to trail stops on the hourly...probably because my positions are insanely large (as usual). haha

Mikes video blew me away last night. Dude, I have no idea how you are still holding onto that Euro position...I am sure that second pin (the one that gave you confidence) would have caught my stop if I had been in it...watch his video if you haven't already - this man has got some skills!

Well I am long AUDUSD and I am long USDCAD...so I guess I am in this trade as well. (Anyone remember everyone not trusting that USDCAD bar after all those "burns" before? Dito EURCAD?)

Had 0.8750 as the AUDCAD breakout level, parallel to 0.8700 AUDUSD I guess.
Now it needs to hold on retest => takeoff.

I'm also in Kiwi, so I hope raczekfx doesn't eat my stops as usual

I am considering taking a break of the bar highs coming into the next S/R pivot (around 0.8810) to add a third position here.

The single most important thing for me is getting a decent position on before the move gets underway.

My, you must have high hopes indeed for this one, literally.

UJ back at weekly open, EJ at 163, AUDJPY moving past 100.50 s/r.

I have 0.9300 in my head but I really I try and keep an open mind. I just want to make sure that if it moves, I am in big.

After all, there is no point having an opinion, unless you are positioned to make a huge deal of money from it.

Hmmm. Well, I'm sticking to the "pure" AUDUSD

USDCAD here has left the building in the last thrash and it may take a bit more of patience to get a really nice setup going(weekly, monthly..).

I still feel there's a chance for the CAD to go somewhere eventually..but the whole market is doing things turning tricky for my mind.

As for the opinion - I'd rather not have one per se - just scenarios.

Or a direction. "Trade in the direction the market is going" - simplest premise
But oh so infinitely difficult to do sometimes...


I am in turn curious whether we will hit 0.8950 / 0.91 AUDUSD eventually.
