It's an up and down road to where I am going to make GBP go to... but it'll get there.... Price always needs a rest at some point... there has been no rest or retrace in the last few days... it is due....
Think you could tell euro to rest for a few? LOL

If the monthly candle finishes at today's close looking much like it does right now, would'nt that be called a tweezer bottom? Tweezer bottoms are a bullish signal correct? (not to be confused with a hatchet ass-what my wife calls me)

Anything is possible

Honestly I don't know and that call was just a fluke lol. Judging from what I'm seeing on my daily charts (my daily bar hasn't closed yet so I can't make too much of a judgement here), price could retrace back down to 1.9850 before taking out that daily pinbar.

There are 3 things to consider though (I was watching that pair and it's behaviour today)
1. There is major news coming out tomorrow (2:00am NY)
2. I noticed price didn't really bounce at 1.9900 (this might be because it's late in the day OR there are no buy orders in that area)
3. Since price dropped below 1.9900, that increases the possibility of 1.9800 being tested again since that's the next round number.

Whichever you do, be sure to use proper money management and trust the method you're using to trade with.
Just reading this post of mine again. Got that original call on 1.9850 wrong lol. Although it did test 1.9800.

This week I think cable is going to make a break for it. Usually retracement happens at the beginning of the week so 1.9850 may be seen again before heading for the highs. Lets see if I get this one right or if I get it completely wrong.

For me the two lows are not exact enough to be a two bar low.... and I also am not convinced about it being bullish or bearish one way or the other... I just know GBP has fought its way back from a long ways down... and I want another 300 pips up on it at a mimimum.... LOOK back in time... and I am pretty sure you will see that there has never been a failed monthly Pin on GBP/USD.... I have faith....

OK for the sake of giving my predictions. I'm going to set off two trades for this pair on sunday. Buy Entry Limit at 1.9763 SL at 1.9738. Also Sell Entry Stop at 1.9738 SL 1.9800. We'll see how this fires off. It seems that if you are long here, the first target that I see is going to be 2.00 for obvious reasons. I don't know if you are using fibs but if I am using my tool correctly,the 38.2 is at 2.0030. We have 109 pips between where we are now and that target. Also, this depends on if we break the 200 ema. I can't find on my daily chart when that was last broken to the up side. I just hope that I am positioned correctly when it does because it could be a sweet ride!

I believe passing the 200 ma is most important.... I don't think 2.0 is such a big deal anymore....

Two bar low--same as tweezer? I've had it said to me that there is a first time for everything and I believe that you aren't a thinking person if you don't consider the possibilities of where price CAN or MAY possibly go before you enter or stay in a trade. That said, I will lean toward what the charts have done consistantly in the past to make my best educated and most settling trading decisions. I'm in agreement with you and zoop here. Signs point to higher prices for GBP. (Like I know anything about anything)

Well Tiki it depends. How many very new traders are out there like me who think it's a big deal vs. how many seasoned traders like you who know it's not anymore?

I agree with Tiki.

2.0000 is old news, just like 1.5000 is going to be old news for eurusd. I'm going to make a long term prediction that we're going to go for 2.1500 (most likely hit that price sooner than everyone expects).

Once you break the big number... that's it no big deal anymore... Same as on EUR.... OK... It's above 1.50 now.... so it can back and forth now as it wishes.... now go long and wait for 1.5500... well wait for a pull back first... then go long

I was in the process of moving my stops and TP up when this pair rocketed to my TP. This was a great lesson for me in trusting my chart and interpretation of the info that it gave me as I kept buying this pair down to 204.68. Proved to be very profitable. I just wonder when this will turn around for shorts. My prediction about this later. This has been my most exciting trade so far!

Zoop, thanks for the compliment! Yup, I'm back in bid-ness! I wish I could trail stops with this broker. I might squeeze more out of my trades. Otherwise, I have enjoyed demo trading with them. Like tomorrow, I'll be away from my desk all day. If I can get to my desk, I can adjust my stops as my trades evolve. Oh well, I fully expect to be trading one day as a sole source of income. Meanwhile, I'll take what I can based on what I see at 5pm on the charts each day. I'm trading with real money again. I hope to always see my progress as how many pips I gain or lose. As always I hope all your trades are profitable ones.
