this 8422-8399 is a confluence of the 1hr asc supp t/line, prev 1hr swing hi/lo area, 50% retrace of the move up from 8330, and daily pivot although trend line under threat again as I type this....should this area give way it starts to look potentially bearish from an intraday viewpoint. Mni saying bids to 8400.

all i know is during this month of august the GBPUSD is very thin and this pair is constantly being manipulated by some big boys day and night eating the money. it doesn't make sense but i think its all because of the low volumes this month.

correct me if i am wrong
seems deadly easy at mo to me, just sell sell and sell again, free money in this market at moment, u just have to have a trading plan that can take advantage of it

key to stick with the trend, every trading in world will tell u that!

keep it simple ie look for an area to get involved and enter and wait to sell off to occur, has worked well for me all month, will change strategy when market changes, first six months of this year required different strategy since we were stuck in range bracket, trading all about evolving ur approach, having flexiable mindset,

u can do it Nav, just need to readjust and improve ur trade setups,

happy trading to all

This is so true. Systems and traders need to adapt to the conditions of the market.

Thank you for the reminder fx local!

Still holding my shorts from 1.8442 with profit locked in. I don't know how much further she will fall with oil rising.

Interesting divergence cable/euro against the dollar

Havent seen that for a while

My first exposure to the democratic convention has made me jumpy. Michelle loves Barack and he loves her and the kids love their parents and they all pray to god together and they have pink bunnies sown into their pillow cases and they have no tooth cavities and they love to go to school etc etc etc
They can't say 'America' without crying with pride
Everything but a smear of vaseline on the lens to make it dreamy

No wonder everyone wants to shoot the rest of their class mates by the time they get to 16 years old - the need to scream must build and build

I think I will work off the yuck factor by placing some big positions and either flagelate myself with the losses or go buy a truck load of gin with the winnings

Now which is the real direction - the euros strength or cables despair ?
