It is sorry been a long day. The setups were the same though on pound and euro. Both were good for longs and good for 100+ pips.

I hope they go lower so I can buy some more.
This pair didn't move more than 25 PIPS after FOMC.

What are you talking about?

Good possibility we consolidate between 1.45-1.50 until the ECB actually cuts rates. Chance of dipping to 1.4350 area, but would expect a quick bounce from there.
Pippin ain't easy, but it sho is fun!

Looking back from original Weekly chart posted on Aug 8th and updated thu today. Heavy green lines show my long term targets. Any break and holds below 1.40 will get very interesting...

acuman i took the original pound trade sunday evening held it over night till yesterday. Its nice to take a trade and make money while you are sleeping. The second trade was taken this morning below 1.8350. You could have done the same thing on the e/u. You see I have a life outside of trading. I have a great wife and two wonderful kids that I like to spend time with. So I take my trades and let them play out. Im looking for moves of 100+ pips.

I appreciate you trying to poke holes in my comments, but it wont work. You see I dont sit in front of my comp all day and scalp 20-30 pips. I take the trades and let them work.

I promise you acumen you don't want to get into a pip playing game with me. You will end up with the short end of the stick in that game.

The FED has indicated the next move will likely be up. (Dollar bullish)

The ECB has little choice but to cut. (Dollar bullish)

The zone is in a lot more trouble than they anticipated. (Dollar bullish)

Deutsche Bank AG, the world's largest currency trader, predicts the dollar will appreciate to $1.45 by year-end. (Dollar bullish)

Oil is headed to $100\barrel - at least. (Dollar bullish)

The EURO's down 6% this month and if it holds will be the largest drop since 1999. (Dollar bullish)

The bottom for the US hasn't happened so there will be some EURO gains.
(Dollar bearish)

I trade intra-day but it doesn't look good for the EURO bulls.
What is big, blue, and a bear?

Oh boy... yeah... I've heard this one before.

I play a hit rate and percentage game and if you want we can play but past participants are no longer on this thread because most traders - especially novices like yourself spend a lot of time running their yaps with no action behind it.

This thread is for trading the EURUSD pair - not for showboating.

Newbies don't care how good I am or how good you think you are - they want to know where the direction of this pair is headed.

So - stay focused on the thread - EURUSD.

Sorry, I don't understand your question. Can you explain it more. If you mean my trade objectives, I am looking for few hundred pips so this is not a short term highly leveraged position.

You entered long and you're looking for a 200pip upward move? I'm sorry, what makes you think that?

Serious question.
