Hey folks, came back from a short vaca, glad to see the market somewhat consolidating - not as much craziness compared to 1-2 weeks ago. Anywhoo, i see sterling touching a major hr support line right now, h&s is pretty much done with its formation on 15m, just went long looking for TP of 1.5100.

im starting to consider not chatting on this forum anymore... by the end of the day i find myself in the right direction after hearing so many noises here and there

ah...
We talked about this yesterday. Don't look at the forum before entering your trades bro! Trade what YOU see!

Prime example, this morning during the opening of the US Session, everyone is screaming long, long, long, long...and I was building my shorts from 5175.
Just digging in the trenches like everyone else!

Got that right, bears are definately dancing around today, but you know what? I'm switching my style a little bit, and going to start pricing in some long term positions, all to short USD. Remember my word on this Micho.... when the dust clears, and world investors start looking in the mirror rather than the window, they'll realize the extent of how much BS they've been putting up. Looking at the market from a more general perspective, I'de have to say that the fat lady is singing and once her que is done, the USD will break past rock bottom faster than its recent ascent to the clouds. Enjoy this ride while it lasts, but stay prudent and get ready for a big turnaround very soon...

Things to look out for:

- Posibility of a default in COMEX at the end of this fiscal year, when demand for actual delivery comes into play
- Propup of commodities --play on fire tag sales
-Gold, gold, and more gold.

i realise i lose when i try go for huge number of pips....in and out...scalping i seem to be ok...maybe cause im look at 1 hr chart and except 100's of pips

if u want 100 pips gotta look at dailly or 4hr at least

i begin to realise market consolidate 80% of time and 20% rally so in and out is the best way

Looks like that long is working out quite well so far. Set stop +5 and will be waiting for further confirmation of a upbreak coming to the end of NY session.

Bro, longs are safe when the time is right and vice versa. Don't block yourself as a oneway trader. The market moves up and down.

WOW bro! That's a hard and long question. I not only look at candle patterns, but I also look at how she's acting to the MA's/EMA's I have overlayed on my charts. I have different breakout strategies I use as well. Most of how I trade can not be coded to a program. Alot of it is feel for the market and which session is primary at the time. I'll help you all I can though. I'll be on during the end of the Asian Session and opening of London. Tonight is my guys night out, so I won't be on once the US Session closes and right now I'm taking care of BS at the office currently.
