G/U price action today tells me that it wants to follow its younger counterpart euro but there are those that keep selling it as the trend is down ( and people rather diversify into euros than pound these days) but looks like the sentiment might be changing slowly ,as 1h and 15m candles indicate ,everytime it got sold buyers stepped in to push it back up so i think we should see at least 1.5 by the close and possibly 1.5050-1.51.

Anothing thing to look at is dollar index it finally broke its up trend line and forming shampooo

abit off topic - perfect set up on audusd today quadruple top and it finally broke out today.

Yeah I did a little but only on the really good opportunities.

Hindsight eh. If I knew it was gonna range I would have done exactly that all day.

I will be seeking out some better pairs for next week, spending too much time on cable, I felt so safe with cable up until today.

That's right bro! Euro is leading the pack right now...

I went long last night based on the daily tl... It seemed we had broken to the upside (could turn out to be a fakeout).... today's close will be very crucial but I think we are going to see a big rally going into next week... the crucial downside level for me is just around 1.4800.... upside 1.5000...
Not a fakeout... this is the real shit... buy dips...

whats happening people ?

So the world is safe after all and the DOW can go up and the dollar resume its downward ?

One swallow does not make a spring as linda lovelace used to say

popped a little short on at 1.5080 just to nick a little retrace

I am a lucky git !

My router has bust and by the time i figured it and set up a direct connection into my computer, the full rise had stopped

scalping short doing well but not leaving the house to get a new router until this mini retrace stalls
