Monarch's Journal of 2008 Trades

The last high we seen was 156.44 and the last low was 155.26 for a distance of 118 pips, that divided into 2 would be 59 pips and placing the median price at 155.85 for now.

We are finding some resistance at the 155.83 for now, but we also know the Frankfurt is opening in 1 minute, let's see what it does, and make our decision based on the movement.
Thanks for sharing your chart with us.

I can see now on 1 Minute we are having some resistance and some O bought.

But maybe still higher a bit later ?
Based on a spike at open here, I took a SHORT from 155.75, but will watch it closely on exit, don't know if it really wants to short just yet.

Maybe 10 pips here or so.

Price went my way, jumped up against me, but should go down to get me out with some profits, maybe 10 or less, will see.
5 min now also O bought a bit your trade should be ok

When you say you bought some, does that mean LONG?

What price did you enter?

So you watch the STOCH indicator then?

I have no indicators on my charts except horizontal lines and some trend lines occassionally.

Most of my trades are based on price action and pressure, most pressure is what I feel when I pull the trigger. LOL

I was really liking this move down at first, and was looking at the 4Hour candle that closed 3 hours ago, it was showing SHORT on it, but for now tightness is occuring and waiting for the move to propel us to the next level.
M I like your way of thinking I scalp the EY all day long up and down on the 5 and 1 min charts till death do us part.

I am not in a trade now I am watching I meant to say I look for Over bought before entering :-)

Doing a Skype think tank during trading will be nice Skype has that feature of draw and talk you can put up a chart and everyone can draw on it nice feature forsure.
I am thinking long at the moment, as E/U just broke out if it ascending triangle and U/J seems to be holding up.

It may dip however, before a move north.
Price is bouncing a bit here, up to 155.90 and still holding me in negative.

I have the next support at 155.75 on the 1 min, looking for it next, and back to my enry price.

Break below that were good on short.
Yes I agree with you more long than short now as different TF's are lining up saying the same direction

Very possible indeed, I am squeezing this for now, if price comes back to my entry, may take breakeven on this trade.

I am hoping the 90 area holds true for now, but feeling like the 1 minute is on a upward trend for now.

Considering my trade now. LOL

Pretty tired here, and eyes are burning.
An H4 bar opening above 156 would make me sit up but I am not trading the yen pairs at the moment because we are still in a down trend. On the H4 we are nearing the top of the channel. I can only see down from here.

Add to this a cup and handle formation from 18th on H4 I just see a confirmation of further falls.

I tend to use mtf stochastics for entries and I will only be looking for shorts on the ***/JPY
Gone to a better place

I have a whole lot of indicators on my chart, last time I counted, it was something like 21 of them ... its a very colourful affair !:-) Fully loaded, so to speak. Does it help me to trade better ? For me its the only way.

I am an ESFP Meyers & Briggs personality type we are forever gathering info and asking questions before we can pull the trigger and it shows very clearly in my trading.

Yeah me too, I am up @ 1:30 A.M writing a training manual and try to trade at the same time.

So far so good actually...
Okay, Short is closed with +20 pips, nice to see that 155.55 support come into play here.

That is all my trades for today, nice profits here.

Sorry boys if you were long, but the shorts took control with that strong Resistance up at 155.80/90 area.

Maybe now there will be more bulls on board to overtake it.
I was not really sure which direction in the short term so I stayed out.

Still am a bit bullish, but going to bed, maybe manana.

I am long E/U...
I am having lots of internet problems here, I seen price jump up to 155.69 and took a short there for +7 pips, but could not post it here, that was based on the 1 minute chart.

Will respond to my PM's here in a minute and the post also.

I don't think you could go wrong with long on EU, as far as EJ, I also have my doubts on short, but still think my 30 minute chart in the past post will come to past in the next 24 hours, I don't know if there is anything pushing price outside of this channel just yet, but the EU catches on fire and goes up could help it break north.

Sleep well, chat with you tomorrow around 8pm EST.

That 4 hour candle was telling me that we had some short left in this past hour, my new 4hr will open in 2 minutes, but I am heading to bed.

Willl do some more trading tomorrow, I have all evening.

For not trading today, it was profitable once again, too bad we didn't stay in that short, it is bombing down big time now. Wow.

Will that 30 minute chart (POST 216) come to past the next 24 hours?
