I'm with you dude. Got in a bit early for comfort at 15505 (Still can't use the 1.5 phrase with cable....)

Only targeting 15400 tho if that
me too my target 1.5405... just cause its the fibo level there nothing much but it may bounce up for double top or something and then down. hopefully not cause my stop is at be and i need to sleep soon

Well From what I can see, this zone around 15450-60 doesn't seem to have many buying orders but is the only real support before 15400 so I will stick around to see it thru and then set a stop above it for a decent profit with the same TP at 15410 (I'll get the 5 back 2moro).

I closed my original long out at 5505 when she dropped. I reentered long at 5456 with a tight SL 5450. She might not work out, but that's ok with me, I'm still green for the day. I'm really looking for 5600 for my next short and I have a pending short order sitting there.

Don't feel bad bro! I had two shorts today that I was up over 60 pips on both of them and got closed out for +3 on them. I know exactly how you feel.

Shite, I don't like to trade against the Masters... So I may just close her now. There is strange action (to me) on the volume indicator so I will sacrifice a few prisoners to see were she goes..

Do you trade Thanksgiving day? I was reading that the Thanksgiving holiday normally presents a bit of a Dollar bashing day. Haveyou or anyone else any experience with that? The last US bank holiday the GBP bashed the dollar for no apparent reason so I am trying to plan my Thankspip day.

cable had a nice rebound from the lows overall, have to see when the main trend has to come back into play, should this area clear on the weekly/monthly charts, ie close above 155 area, we could see a further rebound, but i do fancy it "topping" out near here for a test of the lows going forward 1.46 - 1.36 tests?? just some food for thought.....

Bro, I'm not a master! I'm in the trenches just like you and everyone else.

I have traded Thanksgiving day before, but I doubt I will this time. I'm having it at my house this year. My wife will want my attention towards our guests/family and not on the market.

anybody now short with me? i went short late at 1.55 i didn't see the charts until then

should see some heavy profit taking
I had a short order at 15500 then realized that I meant to set my order at 15600 but it was too late as it was up and running. Then I got worried about it taking me another -100 on account so I closed at -20, but then of course it came down almost 50 below my short entry.
I must learn not to panic, but thats hard to do when you have a run of negative results so I think I will stop trading for a bit and take stock of whats going wrong. Or maybe really reduce my lot size for a while until I can sort myself out.
