If you're talking about his earlier post, so far, he's hanging in there, but in danger. He advised buy "near" 2523. We still qualify, but 30-minute candles are setting up like bear flag. On the other hand, we could get a morningstar doji and RUSH north.
Up or down, gimme a ticket

Yep could go either way...

Guys,
as said yesterday .. 2555 is the key to many things.
I am slightly long at 2555
Hey Driver55 - hope this long didn't sting too bad.

Anything's possible I suppose.
I guess I'm the villain then with my short at 1.2606?
Just closed for around 100 more pips.

Nothing villainous about that. I'm guessing you closed it for a reason.

I'm long EU @ 2502 SL 2460 as well as AUDUSD @ 6364 SL 6325. Both are extreme support levels which I don't think will break. Fingers are crossed because technical wise it definately can go both ways. Gotta go with gut instincts though.

Well - I guess it's a bad habit. I just hate giving back profit, and we are at the 1.2500 point with all the major markets closed. It could sit around this area for hours.

When I'm uncertain, I take my profit - 100pips isn't chump change to me.

I was just kidding you. On a serious note, I think price has been waiting for 1700est, and will start north then. 1 minute to prove me right or wrong.

Edit@1704est: Still dropping.

All markets are down....just made me wonder. I went short the EUR at 1.2510. The dow is now below 8000. Last week it caused a spike, a stock buying frenzy if you will this week I think it will continue downward since nobody is secure holding stocks and pending what the US will do concerning the BIG 3 and maybe nothing until the new congress is seated in January

Oh yeah - I figured, sorry I guess my reply sounded defensive?
Wish I did hold on to it looking at it fall another 30 pips. But the nice thing is - I can go about my day now. Plan for my attack tomorrow.

Happy trading to ya!

Just curious - why are you guys going long without any kind of confirmation? It needs to go up, come back to support and start to go up again - trading 101. It hasn't done that yet, are you just guessing?

No worries. Yeah, those extra pips would be nice, but you did great hanging onto the trade until +100. I usually get out far earlier, or maybe do incremental close/opens. Nice trade there.

I'm still working my situation... Have a good evening.

hahaha - yeah, I usually start to get itchy around 50 pips of profit. Typcially there is one more push down before retracement up, and that's when I cash out. Just today was relentless on the downward push, no retracement at all, so it made re-entry a lot tougher than normal.

I really thought 2500 would be the bottom for the day. Still not too far wrong about that, just off by 28 pips presently.

Maybe I'm a little more conservative, but to go against the bear I'd have to see a good retracement, come back to around a strong support, like the weekly around the 1.2610. It couldn't breach it, much less hold a close over it, but continued to make lower lows.

Hopefully this thing will rocket back up 150 pips so I can get back in a short.
