You just jinxed this...seriously

I can't believe how you did that
Have you ever taken a pingpong ball and threw it into a narrow spot and watched it bounce back and forth untill it found it's way out? Just waiting.

Why I can't trade daily TF.

Two positions.

First one was + 138
Second one was + 93

I play by the rules - manage the trade on daily (since I took it on the daily TF) but I decide to get both to BE.

And down we go. I bet you anything this touches off my stops and then rises. I am going to walk away with nothing on this pair. I would actually like to bet money on this with someone.

Sounds like one of my late AUDUSD entries - two days of +-40 pips and I end up closing it 10 pips below another position which had a 0.8810 TP before the two days of wobbling

For me, it's all about entries...for Mike it's all about exits ;D

If you got "THE" entry then the middle stuff can do what it wants if you got a set target in mind (that's currently what I'm trying to do on cable the last 2 weeks), but if you enter in the middle...well, it's gonna be hard.

Your AUDCAD, well, you know how breakouts can be. Break, retest, takeoff. So the dilemma is closing for little and not getting a retrace or not closing but risking a failed breakout / too deep retrace...

Life's a b... and then you die

But cable is doing quite alright, let's go break that TL puuuhleeeeeeeeeez!

This just in: reports of cable's death have been greatly exaggerated.

Now for a weekly and daily close above 2.0315


I really wonder what BS the fundamentalist army will drum up to justify this sudden revival of GBPUSD.(after 2-3 weeks of saying it is so doomed and dead)

I expect the names "BOE" and "Northern Rock" will be used among other excuses

They'll post it after the break, we'll be in from the IB / 4h PB ;0

Retrace and bounce off the triangle w/ pin. My buy limit triggered just inside the triangle while snoozing. How high will we go?

High enough for you to move your stop to BE, so it can retrace and take you out for nothing?

Also, I know it's broken out of that triangle but I think more people are watching 235.00 and 236.00 which is why it hasn't taken off so sharply.

Folks,

Which Metatrader broker/feed do you guys use?
You are getting some sexy pin bars on the daily/4hr.
I am on Northfinance and Alpari, nowt for me!

If you could shed some light it would be greatly appreciated.
