Hi, I'm new here!

Took the USD/CHF short as well. Could develop very good as the USD is doomed. I don't think there is a real uptrend for the swissy, we'll see parity again...

How can that be foolish if their running free now.

Seems to me that you caught the right DIBS signal.
Maybe you are right Jarroo - but I did not feel good about it, until it ran free that is. Just got stopped out on a 20 pip trailing stop on the EURJPY but some profit made. Still riding the EURUSD and holding my breath for B/E on a short on the Swissy.
Never argue with a fool....

That feeling will soon fade my brother.

if we look at this tunnel chart, you will see that we are possible due for a bit of a retrace on the gbp.usd

..........but you never really know

There was a resistance at around 1.5515. And as you can see price came up to that level and shot away 25 pips on the first test. So taking that IB, considering it was a countertrend move as well, I would have made sure to get a BE before that resistance level, so closing 2/3 at 2:1 would have done the job. Closing 1/2 at 1:1 would have been right on that level.
The good thing is that you are not stopped out and if price broke that level then this will be a good trade so let's see what happens next... If it brakes 1.5515, the next resistance is around 1.5550 and then 1.5600-1.5630. Since it's a countrend move I would be looking very close at these levels as there might be a lot of sellers coming in
I always look to the left before entering a trade...

Hi NowAndLater, I got stopped out on the EURUSD. I am still in the Swissy short but it is looking very "iffy", especially if the USD strengthens against the other major pairs. Fingers crossed - and a stop set!

Just one thing to have in mind: EURUSD and USDCHF are inversly correlated with a high precision, if EU moves down UC moves up and vice versa.
There are a number of reasons to why I wouldn't enter that UC, but I'm very conservative as well. If I was in that trade and saw the current price action I might close it out, at least big part of it but that's me...
