Someone has to be right. Stock market wrong, going down. Bonds going up. Bonds taking USD higher. Thats not guessing thats what the market is telling me. Like was said the spike up on the news was nice chance to short.

So guess that guy in the bull picture was a long instead of a short.

f@ck CMS...

I was out to lunch and left a LIMIT SELL order at 1.9800 with STOP LOSS AT -52 PIPS and LIMIT PROFIT AT +100 PIPS

I was stopped to the pip (high of day at CMS: 1.9848). Now NorthFinance high of day was 1.9845 so instead of being on the verge of pocketing 100 pips I lost 52 pips

Good for you - unlike some people you are in touch with reality and owning up to your losses - you have a good chance to make nice gains in future

What a ridiculous thread, it's generally popultaed/ruined by folk jusst trying to outdo each other with late trading calls.

When posting a late (out of the spread) call it's helpful to say why you are taking the trade.

EG: the set-up at 9850 resistance post NFP. I had a trigger set-up supported by other conditions as shown and explained below:

A 1min (trigger) Reversal set-up with Extreme oscillator readings (chart to the right) supported by the breech of 2nd fib tunnel extreme, upper donchian channel and 61.8 resistance channel on 1min (top left), and upper donchian channel and extreme fib tunnel on 15min small secondary chart (bottom left,) and unusually 2 whole reversal candles closing outside the 20bol (white) on the main 1min chart.

This was supported by Reversal set-ups on the 5min (intermediate time frame) and 15min charts.

I think better stay away if you already take profit. Take a rest and continue next week. Today unpredictable. Alot of up and down.

I close my short with 54 pips.
