How do I get my calls included on observer200's log on google? Do I send him a pm or just continue to post here and he will copy them to the log?

Not sure, but if you just post them, make sure you include "Track" in the title so he can make sure you want it tracked.

Awesome calls today!
I had been eying the CHF and GBP trades for a few days. I rode the CHF up to 1.0480, but chickened out on Cable and never sold it. Kicking myself now. Seems I only trust a Cable trade when it's bound to lose me money :o

This might not be strictly a no-brainer trade, but a modified version that some people might find useful

Short eur/usd @ 1.5595 ...tiny position. will add twice at 1.5650 and 1.5690 if it goes up. Stop 1.5724, TP 1.5475

Thanks Finswin. I'll edit my posts to include track. I hope it's ok and not too late. On another thought I'll send a new post with a bunch of calls for observer200 to track

There's a link in the first post with inx....need to write "Track" in the subject line and trade has to be called before it occurs......thats pretty much it.....

I still feel very confident about eur/chf short. It's at fairly good resistance on daily, and there hasn't been much of a retracement on the daily chart. Looking for a retracement to 1.6260 - 1.6250 area. If it bounces off that area back to 1.6350, then I would not reshort again

Oh thats not what I meant...I know Im holding it too....I meant because the level has been hit already several times today in regards to tracking it.

I think that level should still hold. It's been hit a couple times on hourly chart, but if you zoom out to the daily chart, it still looks strong. actually there might be a little support at 1.6303 - 1.6298 on 1hr chart. I'll close half my position at 1.6205, set the rest at break even, and wait to reshort @ 1.6230.

p.s. and please smash those flame-posts and stupid quarells. WE ARE HERE TO MAKE MONEY. we are not in some ego competition, please guys, keep the general friendly, polite and kind mood going and do not distort the founding premises that brought us all here.

For those just joining the thread I've got a tiny suggestion - READ THE WHOLE THING BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION!!!! I will virtually guarantee that anything you're asking in relation to currency pairs, picking levels, trading around news times, diagonal trendlines, stop losses, scalping, fibonnaci numbers, managing trades, using market orders, taking profits, time frames to trade on, times of day to trade, trading against the trend, entering trades early/late, what time of day is best for making coffee and a whole lot more has already been asked and answered lots of times. If you seriously cant be bothered to spend a couple of hours reading through the thread to gain insight into what its about then move on - its really not rocket science, its reading. The major posts even have links to them on the front page....it really, really can’t be made much easier.
The thing is…. if newcomers (and maybe even existing Members?) don’t bother to read all the posts, then they will never see these perfectly reasonable requests. So then we get things like, “Sorry if the question is already answered. Can sb give me advice?” in a post. The messages in the above posts are good, the sentiment’s valid; it’s just that they are hidden in the depths of the thread so the people they are addressed to won’t be seeing them.

How about the first page of the thread gets edited to include a very short THREAD PROTOCOL? Something like:

  1. Post only suggested No Brainers, suggestions, analysis and/or feedback on the same.
  2. Send all your thank you messages, praise, blame and other what-evers ONLY via the PM route
  3. We are here to make money. Please keep your posts friendly and polite.

(Any further suggestions for this?)

I'm "hoping" for a bounce in eur/usd to 1.5650 area so I can add to my tiny short. It looks very bearish on 4hr chart.

Cable is also looking bearsih. "hoping" for a bounce to 1.9860 to short

Grath,

thank you also for your warm welcome, as you referred to my post...

I posted an analysis with a question ?
What´s so wrong on that ?
I´ll read the pdf, to get a better insight in this hopefully interesting thread.

I'm not sure it'll happen until the NFP report. Everything seems to point to a worse than expected report, which could lead to some really good shorts on EUR and GBP, IMO. That is, unless the reports are catastrophic.

This being my first post I must say thanks to BRV and Ironman for pioneering the thread and to everyone who has posted as it makes the learning curve much easier to climb. Great job SmokeyMcPip on the pdf I also have some notes with the links to what I think are important posts. I had to post this in the thread as newbies cant send PMs. I figured since you were light years a head of me I would run it by you and BRV.
John, thanks very much for this. Appreciate the effort and would hope that many others find this useful......if anyone didnt download this its just a more comprehensive list of posts than just what's been put on the first page of the thread. Thank you again John, hang around and please feel free to chime in whenever.

I agree about the level holding; I'm expecting it to run atleast for a while, especially given the overextension on CHF right now. I dove in right at 67 today and pretty much nailed the top on this, so I'm positioned well but waiting to see what's going to follow. Today's volatility prevented it from dropping harder, no doubt, but attempting to squeeze it as much as possible.

6312, 6252 are the hardest obstacles near term. I'll probably look to scale out little bit by little bit on each turn, that is, if it goes that far. I've been waiting for this for a while....better not disappoint!

Has there been any discussion about how to draw the lines for horizontal support and resistance in this thread? I have experimented with drawing a line at every swing point (high and low) I see on the one hour, 4 hour, and Daily to see where they cluster. My lookback is a max of 240 bars.

This is obviously a lot of work and maybe overkill. This is the most intelligent and usefull discussion I've found in several years of visiting a myriad of Forex forums, so I'm hoping someone will give me some guidance on this.
