Bro,

ANy analysis on UJ based on daily and weekly???

sonic
Hey Sonic! How are you doing brother??!! Here is my take on UJ. I am showing an inside bar on the daily. I would trade long at the break of the IB to the 110.5 area based on trend line resistance. I would not trade short until the break of the 108.55 mark as I see some rendline resistance right past the short side break of the IB. If this is the way she moves, just look for confirming PA down to the 107.25 area. Best of luck to you bro!

I like these kind of set ups. This is what I refer to as a sweet spot. The set up is I trade long at 2.0007 in anticipation of the pin bar holding true PA. My entry is more aggressive than I have been taught to trade, but because of the trend line placement my stop is tight for only a small loss to a large potential gain. (Trend lines are in red.) My TP is just below the next trend line looking upward. I endeavor to expose all trendline possibilities as I sincerely believe that price never forgets where these are. I pull trendlines on daily, weekly and monthly. I am amused, amazed and entertained by the price action surrounding them.
My GBPCHF trade is going well at the moment. I'll be looking in from time to time today on 4 hr tf to chart progess.

All is well thanks for asking! I was just looking for a small move down as the trend line you see here on the daily chart has been breached twice. Now while I don't know yet if we are getting ready for another leg down, I felt fine about taking a short here as a re test of that lower TL in blue. The PA was not showing me a whole lot but the trend was decidedly down at the time. This pair will stay volitile as long as the price is in between the two blue trend lines as I cannot find much more that the price will abide by. Hope that helps!

Daily Chart trendline trade-Chart posted

GBP/CHF Short 1.9979 TP 1.9878 SL 2.0041(Executed 9.11.2008 6:53 AM) ------------------R/R 1:2 Reason for trade---green daily bar is indecision as well as daily inside bar. Chart is ranging and still feeling its way around however biased to downside. I believe that if price tests the purple trend line above current candle forming, it will then retreat toward the next trendline down. It happens often enough for me to take this good R/R trade. My TP is conservative.

No power here most of this past week due to Hurricane Ike. What a storm! We lived in our travel trailer on our cul-de-sac for five days as we had portable power hooked up to it. There are still thousands without power in the Houston area. Many thanks to all of the utility personnel who have traveled here from all over the nation to restore our power. I should have my satellite dish repaired today. I have missed most of the details of the market events of the past week. Very interesting stuff! I look forward to resuming my trading this upcoming week.

Its good to be back AFX! No water from storm surge here as I live about 80 miles inland. Ours was a wind event. I have huge trees in my yard. The winds here got to about 80-85 MPH and I lost one tree. It leaned up against my home. No damage to my home just the power was out for about 2.75 million people in the day after the storm. I was very fortunate to have my RV. I set it up and stocked it in the days before the storm as I knew that we would lose power just like after hurricane Rita. Now I'm just trying to get some rest. I'm in the restoration business and have been going non-stop since last Saturday. This has really helped me to appreciate my normal routine. Thanks for asking about us.
